The company's first major product was Jacket,[2] a library that extends MATLAB with GPGPU capabilities on CUDA-enabled NVidia GPUs, released in June 2008 (version 1.0 in January 2009[1]).

Jacket was followed by ArrayFire, a similar GPGPU extension for C, C++ and Fortran.[3] There are three versions available, one for CUDA GPUs, one for OpenCL devices and another for regular CPUs.

ArrayFire is partially funded by DARPA, who uses it in its "Memex" dark web search software.[4]

Actual is Version 3.4 and is Open Source.[5]
