TASKING Joins SDVerse to Advance Safety-Critical Embedded Software Development for Software-Defined Vehicles

High-per­for­mance embed­ded soft­ware develop­ment tools now avail­able through SDVerse, help­ing OEMs and Tier 1 sup­pli­ers more quick­ly build safe and secure vehi­cles

MUNICH – Sep­tem­ber 30, 2026 — TASKING, a glob­al leader in high-per­for­mance embed­ded soft­ware develop­ment tools, today announced that it has joined SDVerse, the auto­mo­tive industry’s first B2B mar­ket­place for auto­mo­tive soft­ware. Through its par­tic­i­pa­tion in SDVerse, TASKING will make its auto­mo­tive soft­ware develop­ment capa­bil­i­ties more acces­si­ble to OEMs and Tier 1 sup­pli­ers devel­op­ing safe, secure and increas­ing­ly com­plex soft­ware-defined vehi­cles.

TASKING brings togeth­er an inte­grat­ed port­fo­lio for com­pil­ing, debug­ging, trac­ing and test­ing safe­ty- and secu­ri­ty-crit­i­cal embed­ded soft­ware based on 50+ years of expe­ri­ence serv­ing the glob­al auto­mo­tive indus­try. From elec­tron­ic con­trol units and cen­tral and zonal con­trollers to today’s advanced dri­ver-assis­tance sys­tems and increas­ing­ly com­plex vehi­cle archi­tec­tures, TASKING’s tools have evolved along­side the indus­try’s engi­neer­ing demands.  With its solu­tions trust­ed by auto­mo­tive engi­neer­ing teams world­wide, TASKING now brings this decades of exper­tise to SDVerse.

“As vehi­cles evolve into AI-defined plat­forms, the abil­i­ty to build, test and val­i­date embed­ded soft­ware with con­fi­dence becomes a strate­gic capa­bil­i­ty,” said Prashant Gulati, CEO of SDVerse. “TASKING brings deep, trust­ed exper­tise across the soft­ware develop­ment life­cy­cle, strength­en­ing SDVerse with the AI-assist­ed tools auto­mo­tive engi­neer­ing teams need to man­age grow­ing soft­ware com­plex­i­ty, meet crit­i­cal safe­ty and secu­ri­ty require­ments, and bring next-gen­er­a­tion vehi­cle pro­grams to mar­ket faster.”

Soft­ware-defined vehi­cles raise the bar for embed­ded soft­ware

As vehi­cle archi­tec­tures become more cen­tral­ized, con­nect­ed and soft­ware-dri­ven, automak­ers and sup­pli­ers must man­age grow­ing soft­ware com­plex­i­ty while meet­ing demand­ing require­ments for per­for­mance, func­tion­al safe­ty, cyber­se­cu­ri­ty and life­cy­cle sup­port. TASKING’s tool­chain sup­ports auto­mo­tive develop­ment across proces­sor archi­tec­tures and micro­con­troller fam­i­lies includ­ing Infi­neon AURIX/TriCore, Arm, RISC-V and Rene­sas RH850. TASKING also offers tools sup­port­ing ISO 26262 and ISO/SAE 21434 develop­ment require­ments, with select­ed solu­tions sup­port­ing appli­ca­tions through ASIL D.

Through SDVerse, auto­mo­tive engi­neer­ing and pro­cure­ment teams will be able to access struc­tured infor­ma­tion about TASKING’s rel­e­vant capa­bil­i­ties and engage direct­ly with the com­pa­ny. This can help buy­ers iden­ti­fy develop­ment tools suit­ed to their archi­tec­tures, tech­ni­cal require­ments and safe­ty objec­tives while improv­ing align­ment between engi­neer­ing needs and sourc­ing deci­sions. The ini­tial TASKING port­fo­lio pre­sent­ed through SDVerse includes:

• Com­pil­er toolsets for major auto­mo­tive archi­tec­tures such as Arm, Infi­neon Tri­Core, Rene­sas RH850 and RISC-V;
• Advanced debug­ging solu­tions with winIDEA and iC7 Blue­Box debug­gers;
• Test & ver­i­fi­ca­tion tools, includ­ing the LDRA tool suite and Pro­duc­tiv­i­ty Pack­age for Auto­mo­tive.

“The tran­si­tion to soft­ware-defined vehi­cles and the avail­abil­i­ty of pow­er­ful AI are fun­da­men­tal­ly chang­ing how auto­mo­tive soft­ware is devel­oped,” said Ger­ard Vink, Indus­try Spe­cial­ist at TASKING. “As soft­ware becomes more com­plex and develop­ment increas­ing­ly AI-assist­ed, engi­neer­ing teams need inte­grat­ed tools that help them man­age per­for­mance, func­tion­al safe­ty and cyber­se­cu­ri­ty across the entire develop­ment life­cy­cle. By join­ing SDVerse, we can make TASKING’s AI-assist­ed com­pile, debug and test tool­chain more acces­si­ble to auto­mo­tive develop­ment teams and engage with cus­tomers ear­li­er as they define their next-gen­er­a­tion vehi­cle archi­tec­tures.”
