Strong US Economic Data Drives Up Treasury Yields

Cambridge-based semiconductor startup Tendrils has closed a $30 million seed financing round, equivalent to roughly €26 million, led by Benchmark, with follow-on investments from Visionaries Club, the UK Sovereign AI Fund, FR8, Antimatter, Cloudberry VC, Conviction, Embassy Ventures, and SV Angels, plus multiple angel investors. Founded in 2025, the company was established by CEO Nils Cremer and co-founders T6 and Hugo McNally. It is developing a general-purpose processor architecture that enables thousands of cores to operate in parallel. Based on the interaction network computing model, the new architecture represents programs as interconnected nodes, allowing independent operations to execute simultaneously, and aims to move beyond traditional shared mutable memory and linear instruction sequences. Tendrils is also developing an open-source programming language called Vine, whose syntax is similar to Rust, to simplify software adaptation to this parallel-first architecture. The firm noted that while GPUs have taken on large-scale numerical computing, AI agents still rely heavily on CPUs for irregular tasks such as code execution and document retrieval. Jack Altman, General Partner at Benchmark and co-founder of Lattice, will join Tendrils' board of directors.
