What We Do
Bolt Graphics is a semiconductor startup building the fastest and most efficient graphics processors. Power consumption continues to rise with minimal performance improvements, resulting in increased cost and negative environmental impact. Hardware hasn’t kept up with consumer expectations, especially in industries like architecture, engineering, film, advertising, gaming, & scientific research. Our customers came to us to solve their two main problems: performance and power consumption. At Bolt Graphics, we constantly ask ourselves, “Why is it done this way?” and “How can we do it better?” This mindset enables our team to achieve orders of magnitude faster renders and simulations and drives our goal for everyone to create, simulate, and consume immersive experiences.
