Synopsys, the largest developer of chip design software, announced the launch of an AgentEngineer solution—

“Dedicated agent for long-term tasks”

Based on the new Autopilot artificial intelligence platform. The suite covers six areas of IC design: Wafer Verification, System Verification, Physical Implementation, Simulation and A/D, and Simulation and Analysis.

More than 50 Synopsys customers have already implemented the product, which the company will release to the public by the end of 2026. Previously, she demonstrated an AI agent-based workflow built with the participation of Nvidia and Microsoft. The company emphasized that Synopsys positions its AI agents as autonomous, but approval of control phase results remains at the discretion of the individual. For companies that design and manufacture chips and want to increase efficiency through artificial intelligence, a new set of solutions will help

“Accelerating the transition from artificial intelligence design to autonomous engineering”

.

The AgentEngineer system has a three-tier structure – it includes

“Professional super agent who coordinates execution agents”

;Executive agent

“Solving a direct, clearly defined engineering problem”

or at the direct request of an Engineer; and tool-level engines

“Perform the work required”

But they don’t make decisions or set goals. Agents with long or long tasks help solve problems of target complexity—they perform tasks that require hundreds or thousands of steps of reasoning.

The platform covers all development stages from coordinating the work of artificial intelligence agents to collecting telemetry data – and is based on

“cognitive model”

which provides work

“Situational Intelligence”

. The security of intellectual property rights is ensured by access control systems, encryption and execution environment protection tools. Customers can use commercial, open and pre-trained artificial intelligence models in the system, deployed in
