About

We came from the industry we build for

Four founders out of Xilinx and the embedded world, who spent careers watching the right answer sit trapped in a datasheet. Rapidflare is what we built to get it out.

Why we are here

Deep product expertise, in every action your business takes

That is the whole goal: curated, structured knowledge joined to AI agents that are accurate and pointed at an outcome. Electronics runs on documentation that no one has time to read.

The person who knows the answer is always the busiest person in the building.

The problem we watched for twenty years, and the one Rapidflare exists to end.

What we hold to

Three things we will not trade away

Accuracy first

A plausible answer is the wrong answer

In electronics, a spec that is nearly right puts the wrong part in a customer’s hands. We built for extraction accuracy before anything else, and we publish the benchmark and the method behind it.

Show the source

Every answer cites where it came from

A rep will not stake a deal on a black box. Each answer traces back to the document it came from, so trust is something you can check rather than something you extend.

External by design

Built for your customers, not your staff

Internal assistants answer employees. Our agents sit on your site and in front of your customers and channel, which is a higher bar for both accuracy and tone.
