July 26, 2026 (Plano, TX): Siemens expands NVIDIA partnership for self-verifying agentic AI workflows in EDA. Builds on Fuse EDA AI Agent; integrates into Intelligence Center X.

Stack: NeMo Gym, OpenShell secure runtime, Nemotron models + Switchyard, CUDA-X. Agents validate decisions against deterministic physics-based EDA engines.

Vendor claims: Solido Characterization Suite agentic workflows reduce library characterization turnaround >10X and achieve 5X–10X token-cost reduction. Nemotron 3 Ultra used with ACE-RTL agent for RTL verification.

Coverage: Catapult, Questa One, Veloce, Solido, Aprisa, Calibre, Tessent, Innovator3D IC, Xpedition.

Availability: forthcoming releases of Siemens AI-native EDA portfolio — no hard GA date.
