Design Studio
Where Photonic Innovation Comes to Life
Intuitive drag-and-drop interface with real-time physics feedback. Design complex photonic circuits as easily as drawing a diagram.
Designed for Photonic Engineers, by Photonic Engineers
Smart Component Library
Access thousands of pre-validated components from major foundries. Each component includes accurate models, DRC rules, and performance data.
- Intelligent search - Find components by specs, not just names
- Performance preview - See key metrics before placing
- Foundry-verified - Guaranteed manufacturability
- Favorites & custom libraries - Organize your go-to components
Real-time Physics Feedback
See how your design performs as you build it. Our AI-powered physics engine provides instant feedback on every connection and parameter change.
- Instant predictions - Loss, coupling, and phase in real-time
- Thermal analysis - Spot hotspots before they're problems
- Performance overlay - Visualize fields and power flow
- Smart warnings - Catch issues before simulation
Prediction Time
Loss
0.15 dB/cm
Coupling
98.5%
Built for Teams
Design together in real-time. See teammates' cursors, share comments, and iterate faster with built-in version control.
- Live collaboration - Multiple designers, one canvas
- Contextual comments - Discuss directly on components
- Branching & merging - Git-like version control
- Change tracking - Know who changed what, when
