The last revolution began in Silicon Valley. This one starts here.
True Photonic is already building what comes next. When we succeed, America leads the future again.
Derek Bailey, CEO

Gave birth to Silicon Valley and defined American technological leadership for the last 78-years.

The Poovey switch combined with all-optical logic gates begins the era of photon-based computing.

U.S.-headquartered, building the first all-optical data center infrastructure in the Nations Capital to ensure America leads in high-performance computing for the next century.
Leadership in compute isn’t optional – it’s the new foundation of global power. If we don’t build it here, we’ll rent it from others and lose control over the infrastructure that shapes our economy, our defense, and our democracy.
at the Speed of Light
“Compute demand is accelerating— but silicon is standing still. With the Poovey Switch and the new optical logic gates we’re patenting, we’ve engineered
a new kind of infrastructure: faster logic, lower heat, and compute approaching the speed of light. This is the foundation for the next 100 years of computing."Dr. Gary Poovey, Inventor
TruePhotonic is pioneering the shift from electronic to photonic processing—where light, not electricity, powers data movement. Our chips reduce latency, eliminate thermal bottlenecks, and dramatically increase bandwidth by leveraging light’s unmatched speed and efficiency.
The result? Systems that are smarter, cooler, and more capable of handling the exponential demands of tomorrow’s technologies—from artificial intelligence to edge computing and beyond.
We’re not just innovating faster hardware—we’re rethinking what’s possible in computing.
The Poovey Switch operates at 175 femtoseconds per logic event — over 5,700 times faster than a traditional silicon transistor. That’s computation at nearly the speed of light, unlocking real-time performance for AI, simulation, and data-intensive workloads that silicon can’t touch.
Consumes up to 90% less energy than traditional electronic systems, significantly lowering operating costs while slashing carbon emissions. By eliminating resistive heat and minimizing power draw, photonic infrastructure redefines what sustainable compute can be at scale.
Photonics enables vast increases in bandwidth, allowing systems to scale without the bottlenecks of traditional silicon.

Green Compute
Move over big silicon chips. Our infrastructure is built for sustainability from the ground up — photonic systems eliminate heat, cut energy use by up to 90%, and deliver high-performance computing with a near-zero carbon footprint.
Scaling Advanytage
Housed in U.S.-controlled SCIF facilities, our photonic data centers will deliver secure, high-speed compute as a service — without exporting hardware, IP, or energy-intensive products. It’s a new kind of American super export: non-extractive, infrastructure-based, and built entirely on light.
Engineered for next-generation workloads, our photonic platform can scale to meet 10 zettaflops of global demand—delivering high-performance compute for AI, simulation, and science with a fraction of the energy and carbon footprint of traditional data centers.applications.
