From dev kit to deployed fleet

Toolchains, APIs, and evaluation platforms for building on Nelix silicon. We are pre-silicon today — evaluation runs on FPGA platforms, and design partners work directly with the engineers writing the RTL. Everything below is built for the same end state: code you write on a dev kit runs unchanged on a fleet you can attest.

01 — SDK & Toolchain

Three stacks, one AII foundation

Attested Infrastructure Inference runs on three developer surfaces — infrastructure firmware, JBIA inference, and the TrustCore Trust Continuum — unified on the Nelix Compute Platform so trust established at boot follows your code from dev kit to fleet.

SecureGrid™ SDK

Firmware toolchain for the S-Series infrastructure SoC — C runtime, metering reference stacks, and tamper-aware telemetry on TrustCore-secured silicon.

InferEdge™ SDK

JBIA completion transactions on InferEdge™ NPUs — ONNX in, INT8/INT4 quantized workloads under Energy Contract, with ICSM-managed rollouts and PCI export for attestation-backed inference results.

TrustCore™ APIs

The TrustCore Trust Continuum from manufacture through fleet lifecycle — PUF-derived identity, continuous attestation, and signed OTA on every Nelix die.

02 — Developer Workflow

Quantize. Flash. Attest.

The Attested Infrastructure Inference path, end to end: compile ONNX through the JBIA pipeline to INT8/INT4 under Energy Contract, stage via ICSM-managed deploy, and verify TrustCore attestation before fleet admit. No attestation — no trusted admit. Today this runs on InferEdge™ FPGA evaluation targets.

  • One CLI — JBIA compile, ICSM checkpoint, and TrustCore attest across the Nelix Compute Platform.
  • PCI export — quantized workloads ship as Proof-Carrying Inference bundles, verified before execution.
  • No attest → no admit — continuous Trust Continuum attestation gates fleet join; offline queues until reconnect.

03 — Evaluation Hardware

FPGA evaluation today, silicon dev kits on the roadmap

We are honest about where we are: Nelix has not yet taped out. Evaluation runs on FPGA platforms that implement the SecureGrid and InferEdge RTL at reduced clock — enough to exercise the full Attested Infrastructure Inference path before silicon exists: JBIA inference, ICSM-managed rollouts, PCI export, and the TrustCore Trust Continuum. Silicon development kits follow first silicon on the roadmap.

FPGA access is offered to design partners under NDA — bitstreams, constraints, bring-up documentation, and direct support from the engineers writing the RTL.

04 — Documentation

Platform docs for attested inference

Attested Infrastructure Inference documentation for design partners on the Nelix Compute Platform — architecture, TrustCore security, and Proof-Carrying Fleet Operations integration. Released on a rolling basis as the platform stabilizes; a public portal follows first silicon. Request documents under NDA until then.

Early Access

Build with us before first silicon

Design partners get early access to FPGA platforms, SDK preview builds, and the engineers behind the architecture — and help shape the specification before tape-out.
