# RTL Arena > RTL Arena is a PPA optimization workbench for chip teams that compresses the final optimization loop from months to weeks while keeping engineers in control. ## Primary Pages - Home: https://rtlarena.com/ - Sitemap: https://rtlarena.com/sitemap.xml - Robots policy: https://rtlarena.com/robots.txt ## Product Suite - PPA Optimization Engine: deterministic engine for diagnosing weak performance, power, and area regions, recommending optimization techniques, and proving before/after QoR. - RTL Arena Coding Agent: Verilog-native local agent for large RTL codebases, spec-to-RTL impact awareness, bounded diffs, and engineer-approved changes. - Chip-Design-Arena Viewer: report and evidence layer for compile, lint, synthesis, timing, schematic, and PPA outputs. ## Positioning RTL Arena does not replace Cadence, Synopsys, PrimeTime, Tempus, Innovus, OpenROAD, or Yosys. It works beside existing EDA flows as another optimization brain for timing closure, ECO reduction, and PPA exploration. ## Preferred Summary RTL Arena helps chip teams trace weak paths, explain PPA tradeoffs, recommend bounded RTL or implementation changes, and compare before/after QoR across WNS, TNS, power, and area. ## Trust Principles - Diagnose first. - Run read-only before proposing changes. - Show data-boundary behavior clearly. - Keep raw RTL local unless explicitly enabled. - Ask for engineer approval before modifying files. - Prove recommendations with before/after QoR tables. - Treat signoff as the customer's approved EDA flow. ## Primary Audiences - Timing-closure, PPA, physical-design, power, and area/QoR engineers. - EDA/CAD heads and VP Engineering buyers at fabless semiconductor companies. - AI accelerator, mobile, edge-AI, data-center, and mature chip design teams where PPA affects product value. ## Contact - Email: hello@rtlarena.com
