Side-by-side comparison of AI visibility scores, market position, and capabilities

XCENA

EmergingArtificial Intelligence

CXL Computational Memory

MX1 launched with PCIe 6.0 + CXL 3.2. MX1S ships 2026. FMS 2025 Best of Show. Thousands of RISC-V cores inside memory for near-data AI inference — solves KV cache bottleneck.

About

XCENA (formerly MetisX) is developing computational memory products that place thousands of RISC-V processing cores inside a CXL-attached memory module — enabling AI inference to run where the data lives rather than requiring massive data transfers to a GPU. The MX1 computational memory product launched with PCIe 6.0 and CXL 3.2 interfaces and won Best of Show at FMS 2025, with the improved MX1S targeting a 2026 production launch.

AI Agents

Adept AI raised $415M to pioneer computer-use AI agents; its core research and agent team moved to Amazon in 2024 in a landmark talent acquisition while the company continues developing ACT-1 for enterprise automation.

About

Adept AI was founded in 2022 by a team of former OpenAI, DeepMind, and Google Brain researchers to build AI that can take actions on computers — navigating software interfaces, filling forms, and executing multi-step workflows in any application. Its ACT-1 model demonstrated the ability to control web browsers and desktop applications through natural language instructions, pioneering the computer-use agent paradigm that Anthropic later commercialized with Claude's computer use feature.
