Certified Problem Solver

Emmtrix Technologies is a legitimate, high-tech spin-off from KIT (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) specializing in embedded code optimization and parallelization (ISO 26262/DO-178C). While the project has high real-world utility and verified partnerships (e.g., Infineon, Bosch, EU grants), the submission itself contained significant inaccuracies (claiming 'everyone' as audience, 'most people' as traction, and confusing market cap with revenue). The score reflects the strong underlying technology and B2B potential, heavily penalized for the poor quality of the submission data.

Description
Automation Tools for Better Code emmtrix Technologies GmbH is an innovative company in the field of software development for embedded systems from Karlsruhe, Germany, founded in 2016. As experts in compiler technology and static source code analysis, we help our customers analyze and optimize their code by offering software-tools and services. Our aim is to provide comprehensive insight into the runtime performance of an application (emmtrix Performance Estimator) as well as the complexity/interdependency of the code (emmtrix Dependency Analyzer) early on in the development process. Armed with this information, engineers can make informed decisions right from the start of the project. Our analysis solutions can be integrated into existing workflows and run in continuous integration set-ups on a defined schedule complete with versioning and changelogs. Going beyond analysis we also help with automated software parallelization (emmtrix Parallel Studio and emmtrix Code Vectorizer) to optimize performance on multicore and manycore processors, as well as accelerators such as vector processors, but also GPUs and DSPs. This parallelization can be qualified according to ISO 26262 / DO-178C upon request.
