The Opportunity:

Modern computing has fundamentally shifted toward multimodal experiences where text, audio, video, images, and 3D environments seamlessly interact, establishing GPU architecture as the cornerstone of this transformation. Unlike fixed-function AI accelerators that handle specific tasks, GPUs provide the general-purpose computational flexibility required for these diverse modalities while maintaining deep integration with mainstream operating systems through standardized APIs and unified memory models. This architectural advantage positions GPUs as the essential compute engine for both current applications and the emerging landscape of multimodal AI, where heterogeneous workloads must be processed in harmony.

OXMIQ™'s licensable GPU IP rearchitects the GPU from first principles incorporating breakthrough technologies including nano agents in silicon leveraging RISC-V cores, near-memory and in-memory computing, and light transport. OXMIQ delivers solutions that balance multimodal computing flexibility with the radical performance improvements required for next-generation graphics and AI workloads for its customers.

Software First:

Learning from decades of industry evolution, OXMIQ embraces a Software First strategy that prioritizes developer experience through a comprehensive software stack compatible with both OXMIQ IP-based silicon and third-party GPU and AI accelerator platforms.

OXCapsule™, OXMIQ's unified software ecosystem, abstracts away hardware complexity to provide frictionless deployment across diverse computing platforms, eliminating the configuration challenges that traditionally plague heterogeneous environments.

A flagship component, OXPython™, enables Python-based NVIDIA® CUDA™ AI applications to execute seamlessly on non-NVIDIA hardware without code modification or recompilation. Launching initially on Tenstorrent's AI platform later this year with multiple vendor integrations in progress, OXPython demonstrates OXMIQ's commitment to breaking down hardware silos and accelerating the democratization of high-performance computing across the industry.

“We’re excited to partner with OXMIQ on their OXPython software stack,” said Jim Keller, CEO of Tenstorrent™. “OXPython’s ability to bring Python® workloads for CUDA to AI platforms like Wormhole™ and Blackhole™ is great for developer portability and ecosystem expansion. It aligns with our goal of letting developers open and own their entire AI stack.”

The OXMIQ Breakthrough:

Beyond software, OXMIQ delivers a complete GPU hardware IP stack that powers silicon solutions scaling from Physical AI in edge devices and autonomous robots to enterprise edge infrastructure and zettascale data centers. Their scalable GPU core, OXCORE™, integrates scalar, vector, and tensor compute engines in a modular architecture customizable for specific workloads, enabling nano-agents, native Python acceleration, and compatibility with SIMD/CUDA paradigms.

OXCORE scales seamlessly from single core for compact Physical AI applications to thousands of cores for data centers via the OXQUILT™ chip-let architecture. Through OXQUILT, customers can configure optimal ratios of compute, memory and interconnect for their needs and achieve significant reduction in time to market, R&D and production costs v/s current industry standard methodologies.

Capital Efficiency & Market Traction:

OXMIQ has raised $20 million in seed funding from prominent technology investors, including strategic players in mobile and AI silicon such as MediaTek®, and has recorded its first round of software revenue. With its licensing-first model, OXMIQ avoids the heavy capital requirements of chip startups that depend on expensive EDA tools and physical tape-outs — delivering outstanding capital efficiency.

“OXMIQ has an impressive bold vision and world-class team,” said Lawrence Loh, SVP of MediaTek “The company’s GPU IP and software innovations will drive a new era of compute flexibility across devices – from mobile to automotive to AI on the edge.”

Mihira™:

After co-founding Mihira two years ago with Shobu Yarlagadda and SS Rajamouli, Raja Koduri has transitioned out of day-to-day operations at Mihira to focus full-time on running OXMIQ. Raja now acts as a strategic advisor to Mihira Visual Labs™, which is led by CEO Shobu Yarlagadda. OXMIQ holds a minority stake in Mihira and will continue to support its growth through foundational agentic and GPU IP technologies that power Mihira’s cinematic AI platform.

“Raja’s early contributions to Mihira helped shape our foundational vision of cinematic AI. Now, with OXMIQ, he and his team are building the deep-tech infrastructure that powers our next chapter,” said Shobu Yarlagadda, Co-Founder and CEO of Mihira Visual Labs™, and acclaimed producer of the Baahubali film series. “As we scale Mihira into a global creative platform, we’re thrilled to continue our close collaboration with OXMIQ and integrate their agentic GPU innovations into our storytelling stack.”

One U.S. service member was rescued and at least one was missing after two U.S. military planes went down in separate incidents including the first shoot-down since the war began nearly five weeks ago.

It was the first time U.S. aircraft have been downed in the conflict and came just two days after President Donald Trump said in a national address that the U.S. has “beaten and completely decimated Iran.”

One fighter jet was shot down in Iran, officials said. A U.S. crew member from that plane was rescued, but a second was missing, and a U.S. military search-and-rescue operation was underway.

Separately, Iranian state media said a U.S. A-10 attack aircraft crashed in the Persian Gulf after being struck by Iranian defense forces. A U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive military situation, said it was not clear if the aircraft crashed or was shot down.

The war now entering its sixth week is destabilizing economies around the world as Iran responds to the U.S. and Israeli attacks by targeting the Gulf region's energy infrastructure and tightening its grip on oil and natural gas shipments through the Strait of Hormuz.

Here is the latest:

U.S. and Israeli warplanes continued to pound Iran Saturday, hitting several targets including a petrochemical facility, Iranian media reported.

Iran's official English-language newspaper Tehran Times reported that an airstrike hit a facility belonging to Iran’s Agriculture Ministry in the western city of Mehran.

The newspaper said another air raid struck Mahshahr Special Petrochemical Zone in the southwestern Khuzestan province.

The semiofficial Fars news agency reported several explosions heard late Saturday morning in the facility.

Mehr, another semiofficial news agency, reported that the strikes hit four companies within the zone.

Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf made the veiled threat in a social media post late Friday, asking about how busy oil tanker and container ship traffic is through the strait.

The 20-mile (32-kilometer) strait links the Red Sea with the Gulf of Aden and the Indian Ocean and is one of the busiest chokepoints in global trade, with more than a tenth of seaborne global oil and a quarter of container ships passing through it.

Iran has already greatly disrupted the flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz, sending fuel prices skyrocketing and jolting the world economy.

Disrupting transit through the Bab el-Madeb would force shipping firms to route their vessels around the Cape of Good Hope at the southern tip of Africa, further hitting prices.

Israel’s rescue services said Saturday the man sustained glass shrapnel wounds after an Iranian missile hit the central city of Bnei Brak.

It wasn't clear if the glass shrapnel was caused by a direct strike or falling debris from an intercepted missile.

Israel’s Magen David Adom rescue services said it was taking the man to the hospital.

The Iranian judiciary's Mizan news agency said Saturday that the two men who were hanged belonged to the Iranian exile group Mujahedeen-e-Khalq.

The agency said Abul-Hassan Montazer and Vahid Bani-Amirian were convicted of “being members of a terrorist group.”

This brings to six the total number of MEK members executed since the start of the war.

Activists and rights groups say Iran routinely holds closed-door trials in which defendants are unable to challenge the accusations they face.

The Israeli military said on Saturday that its air force struck ballistic and and anti-aircraft missile storage sites in Tehran.

It said the strikes a day earlier included weapons manufacture sites as well as military research and development facilities in the Iranian capital.

It said the strikes are part of an ongoing phase to increase damage to Iran's “core systems and foundations.”

Authorities in Dubai said the facades of two buildings were damaged by debris from intercepted drones, including one belonging to U.S. tech firm Oracle. No injuries were reported.

Iran’s Revolutionary Guard has threatened to attack Oracle and 17 other U.S. companies after accusing them of being involved in “terrorist espionage” operations in Iran.

Previous Iranian drone strikes caused damage to three Amazon Web Services facilities in the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain.

As of Friday, 247 of the wounded were Army soldiers, 63 were Navy sailors, 19 were Marines and 36 were Air Force airmen, according to Pentagon data available online.

It is unclear if the data includes any of the service members involved in the downing of two combat aircraft reported Friday.

Most of the wounded — 200 — were also mid to senior enlisted troops, 85 were officers and 80 were junior enlisted service members.

The current death toll remains at 13 service members killed in combat.
