Hyper for Education

Train the next generation of chip builders.

Universities, community colleges and research labs use Hyper to teach IC and photonic design, run simulations in seconds and take student designs all the way to MPW shuttles.

The opportunity

The chip talent gap starts in the classroom.

The world needs far more semiconductor and photonics engineers, but teaching them is hard. Tools are expensive, compute is scarce and students rarely see their designs reach real silicon.

  • Lab compute and tool access are limited and hard to manage
  • Students wait hours for help on design questions
  • Taping out student work feels out of reach

FAQ

Questions, answered

Can students use Hyper for free?

Every workspace starts on a generous free tier with twice the free usage the big incumbents offer.

Can we tape out student designs?

Fab Network lets you request quotes from and coordinate with foundries and MPW shuttles from one place.

Does Hyper AI just give students the answers?

Hyper AI explains concepts and reasoning, and instructors can guide how it is used in their courses.

Can instructors manage student access?

Yes. Role-based access control lets instructors manage students and teaching assistants.

How does Hyper pricing work?

Pricing is usage-based. Every workspace starts on a generous free tier with twice the free usage the big incumbents offer, and after that you only pay for what you use. There are no setup fees.
