Senior-only engineers. AI-assisted validation workflows. Built for programs where missing schedule simply isn't an option — whether you're protecting a hard deadline or recovering from one.
Some programs can't afford a slip — and some can't afford to fall behind in the first place. A2e Fast is built for both.
Four focused stages — senior engineers driving every decision, agentic flows handling the heavy lifting.
Senior engineers review your specs and requirements first and produce an initial analysis. From there, AI-assisted research takes over: hundreds of cross-references against datasheets, related standards, reference designs, and prior program artifacts, all completed in hours rather than days or weeks. Nothing important slips through the cracks at the start.
Multi-discipline senior engineers drive the planning, with agentic flows accelerating the legwork. Decades of hardware, FPGA, and embedded experience translate into detailed execution plans and specifications before anyone touches a schematic or RTL, so the team isn't discovering the hard parts in layout or bring-up.
Senior engineers across hardware, FPGA, and embedded run the execution, paired with custom MCP integrations and sandboxed agentic flows that handle the parts of the work agents are good at. The result is high-speed development that still meets every design requirement, without bloated code or runaway scope.
Speed only matters if what you ship holds up. Stage four exists to make sure the design is robust, traceable, and maintainable long after the program ends, with senior engineers driving review and agentic flows handling the heavy lifting on coverage and documentation.
A2e Fast is not a "faster version" of commodity services. It is a fundamentally different delivery model.
Representative outcomes from A2e engagements. All results are anonymized per customer requirements.
Taking an existing build and resolved complex FPGA DMA stalls through instrumented builds, adding the capability of the software to poll the status of hundreds of signals live as transactions were occurring and track down the failure mode within a few hours. The equivalent RTL and SW changes would have taken several weeks to add, with several iterations to fully mitigate CDC issues, integrate SW/RTL register maps, and add hooks into the cod
Cut development costs by drastically reducing time to implement MIPI and DPHY protocol analyzers to a factor of 1/4.
Created a test harness with hundreds of test cases for hardware in the loop testing of an RFSoC including control of lab equipment, RF playback/captures, hardware and driver configurations, and complex scenarios covering dozens of use cases. Using parallel agentic flows to assist with debug, the team was able to bring up the CI/CD flow and have all tests passing in less than a week.
Results vary by program complexity, scope, and customer collaboration. Contact us for a candid assessment of your specific situation.
AI doesn't replace our engineers. It makes them faster and more accurate — and keeps your program data exactly where it needs to be.
We apply AI to analysis loops, constraint validation, and automated design checks — the kinds of tasks where automation compounds accuracy and compresses time. Your engineers stay in the loop and in control.
🔒 All AI use is controlled, secure, and compliant with customer data requirements. Your program data does not leave our secure environment.A2e Fast is not the lowest-cost option. It's the option that keeps your schedule intact — and minimizes the total cost of a delayed or reworked program.
Each avoidable spin costs weeks of schedule and thousands in NRE. We're optimized to minimize them.
A compressed design cycle means you hit production — and market — before schedule risk compounds.
Senior engineers catch risk early. That's worth far more than the delta in day rate.
Whether you're protecting a hard deadline or already under pressure — tell us about your program. We'll give you a candid technical assessment including risks, timeline estimate, and where we can add the most value.
We can compress timelines without increasing technical risk. The first step is a short conversation.
