Rosette is a modern editor for PICs.
Design photonic integrated circuits with precision and speed. Rosette combines parametric components, intelligent routing, and virtual nanofabrication in a browser-based environment optimized for professional workflows. Features include keyboard-driven operations, collaborative editing, and AI-assisted design—all without installation requirements.
Building for the next generation of photonic design
Designed to design quickly
Rosette runs in your browser with no installation required. Navigate your design with intuitive keyboard shortcuts, a searchable command palette, and streamlined workflows that eliminate friction. The interface responds instantly to your actions, keeping you in the flow of design.
Built for photonics: create parametric cells (p-cells) with configurable properties, leverage automatic waveguide routing between ports, and access a library of photonic components like couplers, rings, and gratings. Each tool is optimized for the unique requirements of photonic circuit design.
Virtual nanofabrication
Predict fabrication outcomes before manufacturing. Rosette uses PreFab machine learning models to predict how your designs will look after fabrication, helping you identify potential issues and optimize dimensions.
The prediction engine analyzes design geometry and process parameters to show expected fabrication results. The models can also correct for process variations, helping you catch problems early and refine your designs before sending them to the foundry.
