Lightsolver

LightSolver is an Israeli deep-tech company developing the Laser Processing Unit™ (LPU) — a physics-based analog optical computing engine that uses light for both computation and memory. Founded by Dr. Ruti Ben-Shlomi and Dr. Chene Tradonsky, PhD physicists from the Weizmann Institute, LightSolver’s LPU eliminates memory-bandwidth bottlenecks inherent in digital hardware, delivering ultra-fast, energy-efficient processing of complex HPC workloads at room temperature. Core applications include a rapid propagator for engineering/scientific modeling, a combinatorial optimization annealer, and an eigenvalue solver for structural engineering. Accessible via a Python-based cloud API. Strategic investor: Boeing. Based in Tel Aviv.
