Vision
The vision of Axiomise is to enable formal to be used by all design and verification engineers for the right reasons at the right time. Axiomise will realize its vision by directly engaging with its customers to enable them to use formal hands-on with ease and confidence to tape out high-quality verification in a predictable manner.

Management
Dr. Darbari has been actively using formal methods for over two decades. He is one of the foremost authorities in practical applied formal verification having trained nearly 200 designers, and verification engineers across the world.
A keen innovator in formal verification, Dr. Darbari has 38 patents in formal verification. He is also the author of the formalISA® app.
As founder & CEO of Axiomise, he has led the company to successfully deploy the unique combination of training, consulting, services, and verification IP to a range of customers. Dr. Darbari has expertise in all aspects of formal methods including theorem proving, property checking, and equivalence checking. Although he has a Doctorate in formal verification from the University of Oxford, to learn formal verification from him, you don’t need a Ph.D.! Some of his former students work at Apple®, Arm®, Blu Wireless®, Diffblue®, Displaylink®, Facebook®, Imagination Technologies®, Infineon®, Intel®, Nokia®, Raytheon®, Synopsys®, OneSpin Solutions®, and Xilinx®, to name a few.
