TALON IR ecosystem
Neuromorphic intermediate representation for Type 1 Compute hardware. SDK with PyTorch bridge, HDF5 serialization, and visualization—export models without owning every hardware detail.
Your model. Your hardware.
We convert your existing AI models to run on FPGAs at a fraction of the power—no retraining, no new hardware, no GPU dependency. How we work on type1compute.com →
Currently engaged with tier 1 defense primes and international systems integrators.

Hand us your PyTorch or ONNX model as-is. No retraining. No pipeline changes. Your training workflow stays the same.
We handle conversion, optimization, and FPGA deployment. Your team works with the outcome—no HDL expertise required on your side.
We maintain the deployment after handoff. Optimization continues as your workload evolves.
On the roadmap: custom ASIC, 100× efficiency over Jetson, priority access for pipeline partners.
