Raja Koduri established Oxmiq Labs after departing Intel's graphics division two years ago. The former AMD and Intel executive assembles a team of veteran architects with 500 years of combined experience to develop artificial intelligence processors. The startup adopts a comprehensive approach that rebuilds graphics processing units from the transistor level through complete software systems. Oxmiq prioritizes software development to enable unmodified Python applications with CUDA support on alternative hardware platforms.
The company introduces OXCORE modular architecture that combines scalar, vector, and tensor processing units across diverse computing environments. OXQUILT chiplet design allows customized graphics processors through configurable compute, memory, and interconnect components. OXPython software enables existing NVIDIA applications to run on competing hardware without requiring code modifications. Tenstorrent partnership demonstrates this compatibility on Wormhole and Blackhole processors, while the OXCapsule platform simplifies deployment across multiple systems.
Oxmiq pursues intellectual property licensing rather than manufacturing complete graphics cards, thereby reducing development costs. MediaTek leads $20 million seed funding round as the company positions itself as Silicon Valley's first graphics processor startup in 25 years.
