Secure RISC-V silicon, designed in Europe
Optersoft is a fabless semiconductor IP design house. We build security-first RISC-V IP for automotive, edge and defense systems — so Europe can design its own trusted silicon.
- RISC-V architecture
- ISO 26262 / 21434
- Designed in Europe
Why now
“Europe is arriving very late to the AI and chip race.”
— a thesis Optersoft was built to answer
Sovereignty now depends on combining compute, data, energy and talent. Optersoft exists to put Europe back among the players at the design layer — where trusted silicon begins. We attack the design-sovereignty problem and partner with foundries for fabrication, rooted in Barcelona's RISC-V and supercomputing ecosystem.
Technology
Security engineered into the silicon
Security-first RISC-V IP
Hardware Root of Trust, an isolated HSM, secure boot, crypto accelerators and side-channel & fault-injection countermeasures — security designed into the silicon, not bolted on at the end.
Automotive-grade by design
Functional safety and cybersecurity co-engineered to ISO 26262, ISO/SAE 21434, UNECE R155/R156 and AEC-Q100, with the full documentation trail that type approval demands.
European design sovereignty
We own the design layer and license our IP. Foundry partners handle fabrication, so customers get sovereign, auditable silicon without an in-house design team.
Markets
Trusted silicon where it matters most
Automotive
Functional-safe, secure IP for ECUs, zonal controllers and software-defined vehicles, ready for ASIL targets and OTA update mandates.
Edge & IoT
Ultra-low-power RISC-V IP with tamper-proof data integrity for connected sensing devices at the edge of the network.
Defense & critical systems
Sovereign, trustworthy silicon IP for systems that demand verifiable security and a European supply chain.
