Hailo
Hailo designs edge AI processors and accelerators (Hailo-8, Hailo-10) for makers of cameras, cars, robots and PCs. It is now part of Microchip Technology.
Hailo, an Israeli fabless chip company founded in 2017, sells AI inference processors and M.2 accelerator modules with a software toolchain. They run deep learning and generative AI (including small LLMs) on-device at low power, for security cameras, automotive, industrial automation, robotics and PCs. It raised about $340M in total, including a $120M Series C extension in April 2024 at a reported $1.2B valuation. In 2026 it reportedly cut staff (about 10% in January, with a reported 50% cut in June) and refocused on robotics and physical AI. In July 2026 it signed a deal to be acquired by Microchip Technology, with closing expected by the end of Q3 2026.
