Foretellix Unveils New AI Platform To Accelerate Autonomous Vehicles
Synthetic traffic scenarios can be created in realistic detail so that a comprehensive driving ... More environment is presented to an Autonomous Driving system. Foretellix, a provider of data-automation for AI-powered autonomy, today announced a significant expansion of its Foretify platform, which the company says will enable Autonomous Vehicle (AV) developers 'to slash development time in half and save hundreds of millions of dollars.' Foretellix views the emergence of the physical AI frontier presenting AV developers with opportunities for significant industry advances beyond the manual, rule-based software predominantly deployed for assisted driving capabilities. The company emphasizes that AV developers need a way to train the AI engines by maximizing the value of their existing drive data and enhancing it with hyper-realistic synthetic data. However, they also face serious challenges in preparing for the unpredictability of the technology. The need to validate that the AV stack is inherently safe in any possible scenario is vital for autonomy to be successfully launched on public roads. Foretellix developed its Foretify data automation toolchain to train AI-powered AV stacks by automatically curating training data from the real-world driven miles and augmenting them with generated synthetic scenarios. The toolchain also provides diverse sensor simulation data enhanced with hyper-realistic variations generated by NVIDIA Omniverse and Cosmos. The AI-powered AV stack is validated by generating massive amounts of realistic synthetic data, increasing efficiency in reaching an optimal level of operational safety in a particular Operational Design Domain by tenfold, the company says. Furthermore, Foretify evaluates the real-world and simulation data coverage and provides evidence for the system safety case. Backed by leading investors including Toyota's Woven Capital, Temasek, Volvo and NVIDIA, Foretellix was founded by pioneers of data-driven verification and validation tools for complex systems. The founding team's work across coverage-driven methodologies, verification, and validation at Verisity, Intel, and Cadence Design Systems is now widely used in the semiconductor industry and formed the basis of Foretify. Foretellix customers include Daimler Truck subsidiary Torc, Volvo, Mazda, Woven by Toyota, and Nuro. 'Physical AI creates a fast lane to autonomy that will ultimately improve our quality of life and help save millions of lives, but making it a reality requires an intelligent, data-driven approach to address AI's inherent limitations,' said Ziv Binyamini, CEO and Co-Founder of Foretellix. 'Training, validating and providing evidence of autonomous systems' safety are the key drivers for this industry to progress. Foretellix's solution helps foster innovation and reduce the barriers to entry for AV developers, vehicle manufacturers and entrepreneurs, democratizing the road to driverless autonomy.' "Foretellix is a valued partner in our mission to commercialize autonomous trucks by 2027' said Torc CEO Peter Vaughan Schmidt. 'Their Data-Automation Toolchain enables the large-scale simulation and rigorous scenario testing essential to validating our physical AI level-4 autonomous system and ensuring that safety remains at the core of everything we do." "By leveraging NVIDIA Omniverse and NVIDIA Cosmos, the Foretify toolchain can evaluate and generate high-fidelity testing scenarios and training data at scale," said Zvi Greenstein, General Manager, Autonomous Vehicles Infrastructure at NVIDIA. 'Foretellix's data-automation toolchain delivers the training, validation and safety evaluation data required to safely deploy AI-powered autonomy' Foretify recently expanded its simulation capabilities through its integration with the NVIDIA Omniverse Blueprint for Autonomous Vehicle (AV) Simulation and the NVIDIA Cosmos Transfer World Foundation Model. The addition of hyper-realistic sensor simulation to Foretify's behavioral scenario simulation accelerates AI-powered AV training and validation for faster development and deployment. The AI community continues to reach ever more deeply into creating a hyper-realistic synthetic world. This means safety teams at AV developers can throw a vast set of road driving scenarios at their self-driving system. This basic concept has been cooking for close to a decade. With each iteration, complexity and thoroughness seem to be growing by orders of magnitude.

Cadence Rises 27% in a Month: How Should You Play the Stock?
Cadence Design Systems CDNS stock surged 27.3% in the past month, outperforming the Computer-Software industry, the Zacks Computer and Technology sector and the S&P 500 composite's growth of 25.3%, 22.6% and 15.3%, respectively. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research The trigger has been the company's stellar first-quarter results, with the stock gaining 12% since April 28. The stock closed last trading session at $320.30 and is now much closer to its 52-week high of $328.99. So, the question now arises is whether to stay invested or pull out? Can the stock rally further? Let us analyze the stock in detail to ascertain if it is worth investment consideration. Broad-based demand for its solutions amid robust design activity is a key catalyst. Secular trends like 5G, increasing usage of hyperscale computing and autonomous driving are influencing design activity across semiconductor and systems companies. This is likely to open up opportunities for its end-to-end EDA, IP and systems solutions. The focus on Generative AI, Agentic AI and Physical AI is leading to an exponential increase in computing demand and semiconductor innovation. This bodes well for Cadence. To capitalize on this opportunity, it has been collaborating with several tech giants, including Qualcomm and NVIDIA Corporation NVDA, on their next-generation AI designs across both training and inference. The company also expanded its partnership with NVIDIA for the latter's Grace Blackwell architecture to accelerate computing and agentic AI solutions. It is among the first adopters of the NVIDIA Omniverse blueprint for AI-factory digital twins, which will augment data center design and operations. Cadence is eyeing new AI markets like Life Sciences through its OpenEye drug discovery software. The company is also expanding partnerships with its foundry partners like Taiwian Semiconductor Manufacturing, Intel and Arm Holdings. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research Amid rapid AI proliferation, the portfolio has been gaining momentum along with AI-powered products such as Cadence Cerebrus. The product had more than 1000 tapeouts year to date and 50 new logos in the first quarter. Going ahead, the company is likely to benefit from customers increasing their R&D spending in AI-driven automation. On the last earnings call, Cadence highlighted that it has not seen any shifts in customers' behavior presently, as they continue to invest in next-generation designs. Cadence continues to invest heavily in verification and digital design products, which is helping it to launch products that address the ever-growing needs of electronics and semiconductor companies. The company's verification business has been gaining traction due to the rising complexity of system verification and software bring-up. In April 2024, the company unveiled the latest Palladium Z3 Emulation and Protium X3 FPGA Prototyping systems. This is an advanced digital twin platform that is aimed at addressing the growing complexity of system and semiconductor design. The latest systems offer more than double the capacity and a significant performance increase compared with Palladium Z2 and Protium X2 systems. In 2024, hardware solutions added more than 30 customers and almost 200 repeat customers, especially among AI and hyperscale clients. The strategic acquisition plan has played a pivotal part in developing the company's business in the last few years. To strengthen its IP business, the company announced the acquisition of Secure-IC, which will expand its IP portfolio, including interface, memory, AI and DSP solutions. In April 2025, Cadence signed a definitive agreement with Arm Holdings to acquire its Artisan foundation IP business. The acquisition includes a suite of standard cell libraries, memory compilers and general-purpose I/Os, all finely tuned for advanced process nodes at leading global foundries. Driven by strong results, management upgraded its outlook for 2025. Revenues for 2025 are now estimated to be in the range of $5.15-$5.23 billion compared with $5.14-$5.22 billion guided earlier. Non-GAAP EPS for 2025 is expected to be between $6.73 and $6.83 compared with $6.65-$6.75 guided earlier. Weakness prevailing over global macroeconomic conditions and substantial exposure to the semiconductor vertical are concerning. Any reduction in R&D spending for companies within the semiconductor sector could affect CDNS' top-line performance. Higher operating costs and stiff competition in the EDA/AI space from the likes of Keysight Technologies, Synopsys SNPS and ANSYS ANSS are additional headwinds. The pending acquisition of ANSYS by Synopsys is likely to intensify competition in the EDA space for all players. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2025. While Cadence is expanding aggressively through M&A, acquisitions may distract from core performance if integration falls short or synergies do not materialize as expected, which could weigh on margins. Cadence stock is trading at a premium, with a forward 12-month Price/Earnings ratio of 45.04X compared with the industry's 32.02X. In comparison, SNPS and ANSS trade at multiples of 32.16 and 28.01, respectively. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research Analysts remain bearish on the stock, as evident from the downward estimate revision in the past 60 days. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research Cadence, with its strong fundamentals, robust AI-driven demand and a resilient recurring revenue model, remains a compelling opportunity. The company's prominent position in the EDA space and strategic partnerships with tech giants like NVIDIA and Qualcomm position it well for long-term growth. While macro uncertainty, integration risks and valuation are valid concerns, the company's upgraded guidance and expanding market footprint support a continued bullish outlook. Given the strong momentum and secular tailwinds, holding the stock remains a prudent strategy for long-term investors. CDNS currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
