The Metis PCIe AI Accelerator Card family from Axelera AI delivers unmatched inference performance for demanding edge applications. Built around the Metis AIPU, each card achieves up to 214 INT8 TOPS, rivaling GPU-class throughput while maintaining superior power efficiency. Designed in a compact half-height, half-length (HHHL) PCIe form factor, these cards are ideal for servers, industrial PCs and embedded platforms requiring scalable, high-performance AI acceleration.

Available with 4GB or 16GB of onboard DRAM, the Metis PCIe cards support multiple neural networks running in parallel, enabling real-time analytics across dozens of camera feeds or complex industrial pipelines. With PCIe Gen3 x4 connectivity, active cooling, and robust security features such as secure boot and root of trust, they provide both performance and protection in sensitive deployments.

The Voyager SDK simplifies integration, offering a rich model zoo, compiler support for PyTorch and ONNX, and streamlined end-to-end AI pipeline tools. From security and robotics to retail, mobility, logistics, agritech and Industry 4.0, Metis PCIe AI Accelerator Cards enable rapid, accurate, and efficient AI deployment at the edge.
