  • Zero ASIC releases Wildebeest, the world’s highest performance FPGA synthesis tool.
  • Wildebeest aims to bridge the QoR gap between open-source and proprietary FPGA synthesis tools.
  • Key innovations include size-based algorithm selection and advanced ABC commands for optimization.
  • Benchmark results show Wildebeest outperforms both proprietary and open-source solutions.
  • Future goals include developing an 'LLVM for synthesis' with community collaboration.
  • Wildebeest is available on GitHub as of September 17, 2025.
  • Zero ASIC's mission is to democratize silicon access through chiplets and design automation.
