optimizes pin routing during your coffee break
You spend days juggling PCB layout constraints, soldering tiny components, and debugging firmware registers. Your oscilloscope is just a witness to your slow, manual design cycle.
The one thing AI can't do
You can physically feel when a board is about to short-circuit during power-on testing.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Day 10
Our generative models begin drafting PCB schematics based on your historical project constraints.
Month 7
Embedded code is auto-generated by agents that already read every vendor datasheet.
Month 16
Vision-guided pick-and-place robots eliminate your manual soldering rework cycles entirely.
Year 2.1
Simulations run millions of power-on scenarios in seconds, rendering your oscilloscope obsolete.
Year 2.6 · D-Day
Your access to the repository is revoked as the system completes the final board commit.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
