About the Company

Volantis Semiconductor

Designs photonic AI compute hardware

Volantis Semiconductor designs photonic computing hardware for AI workloads, centered on the Volantis Photonic Motherboard. Its technology directly modulates low-cost VCSELs and densely parallel optical waveguides directly on the chip to replace electrical interconnects, enabling a chip-scale package with massive bandwidth and energy efficiency. This approach differs from traditional silicon photonics by wafer-scale integration and laser-based optics, focusing on scalable interconnect bandwidth and compute efficiency rather than simply adding more silicon cores. The company aims to deliver faster, cheaper AI compute with reduced energy use, with pre-orders expected in early 2026 as it engages early customers.
