Every fact carries evidence
A capacity number without a source is just another opinion. Waferline keeps the quote, publisher, reliability tier, and observed date attached.
About Waferline
The missing truth layer between a supplier promise and your production plan.
Waferline is allocation intelligence for teams that design and buy advanced chips. It watches the capacity behind their roadmap and makes every signal auditable.
Why this exists
Allocation still runs on phone calls and prayer.
Hardware teams often learn that a packaging slot, HBM allocation, or foundry date moved only after it has already put a quarter at risk. Their planning tools know what they intend to build; procurement tools know what they ordered. Neither knows whether constrained upstream capacity is actually available.
Waferline sits before those systems. It combines cited capacity observations, distributor lead times, allocation events, export rules, and private supplier commitments into an early-warning layer.
It is not a marketplace, purchasing system, or black-box risk score. It answers a narrower question: what capacity will you actually get, and when?
How trust is designed
Four rules shape every screen.
Reliability beats recency
When sources disagree, the stronger source wins—even when it is older. That hierarchy remains visible instead of disappearing into a model.
Severity must explain itself
Critical, notable, and watch states come from explicit rules. Users can see the reasons, rather than receiving an opaque risk score.
Private signals remain private
Purchase commitments and supplier confirmations belong to the customer workspace. They do not become public market data.
