What proteanTecs does
proteanTecs, founded in 2017 in Haifa, Israel by three former co-founders of Mellanox, provides deep data analytics for the health, performance, reliability, and production yield of advanced electronics. Its platform combines a six-layer on-chip hardware monitoring system (Margin Agents, PVT sensors, on-chip controllers, EDA-driven IP generation, and an infrastructure firmware/test layer) with cloud-based ML analytics that deliver measurable outcomes including up to 14% power reduction via AVS Pro, up to 10% performance boost via AFS Pro, predictive Silent Data Corruption prevention through its Real-Time Health Monitoring (RTHM) Health Index, and up to 30% faster time-to-market.
The company has deployed its monitoring IP across more than 150 chip designs at foundries down to TSMC's N2P and Samsung's SF5A 2nm-class nodes, and sells through three interlocking revenue streams: licensing of embedded monitoring IP, cloud-based analytics software subscriptions, and per-device or production analytics fees for chip and system-level test. Distribution combines direct enterprise field sales with embedded ecosystem channels through Arm Total Design (Neoverse CSS integration with 200 Margin Agents and 96.63% coverage), Cadence's Chiplet Spec-to-Packaged Parts ecosystem, TSMC's Open Innovation Platform, and Samsung Foundry's chiplet program.
proteanTecs has raised over $250 million from strategic investors including Intel Capital, Koch Disruptive Technologies, Addition, IAG Capital Partners, MediaTek, Advantest, Porsche SE, Samsung Catalyst, Siemens, and TOPPAN's TGVP. It operates from offices in Israel, the United States, India, Taiwan, Korea, Japan (opened November 2025), and serves customers across AI/HPC, data center, automotive, telecommunications, mobile/consumer, and defense electronics.

proteanTecs product offering
Product offeringCore offering
proteanTecs sells an on-chip hardware monitoring IP and analytics software platform for advanced electronics. Its embedded Agents, Margin Agents, and PVT Sensors are licensed into customer silicon, while a cloud-based analytics suite (AVS Pro, AFS Pro, RTHM) processes the resulting telemetry to deliver real-time power reduction, performance gains, and reliability monitoring across the chip lifecycle.
Product overview
proteanTecs offers a comprehensive suite of end-to-end health and performance monitoring solutions for advanced electronics, combining an embedded hardware monitoring system with on-chip Agents, intelligent EDA integration tools, and a comprehensive software suite. The platform is built around a core Hardware Monitoring System that includes on-chip Agents (Margin Agents, timing, voltage, temperature sensors) and a six-layer monitoring architecture connecting to production test equipment and in-field software. The solution portfolio spans six key challenge areas: Power & Performance (AVS Pro, AFS Pro), Reliability/Availability/Serviceability (RTHM), Functional Safety & Diagnostics, Chip Production, System Production, and Advanced Packaging. Key applications leverage ML algorithms to deliver real-time adaptive voltage scaling (AVS Pro) for up to 14% power reduction, adaptive frequency scaling (AFS Pro) for up to 10% performance boost, and Real-Time Health Monitoring (RTHM) for SDC prevention. The company has deployed solutions in over 150 chip designs across multiple foundries down to 2nm process nodes.
