Tendrils says it has completed a $30 million financing round led by Benchmark to develop a general-purpose processor built around thousands of cores operating in parallel. Other participants include Visionaries Club and the UK Sovereign AI Fund.

The company is developing the processor alongside Vine, an open-source programming language designed for parallel architectures. Its approach moves beyond shared mutable memory and linear instruction sequences. Tendrils also announced that Jack Altman is joining its board; the processor remains under development.
