AI Agents for Firmware
Embedder is building an AI coding agent that can write, test, and debug firmware on real hardware.
Embedder is an AI agent platform for firmware that reads datasheets, writes code, flashes boards, runs tests, and self-corrects autonomously. It supports 500+ MCUs and 3,000+ peripherals and grounds generated code to reference manuals and schematics. It offers hardware-aware validation and multi-agent orchestration across build/flash/test/fix loops.
The product ingests datasheets and schematics (Altium, KiCad, Eagle, PADS, Xpedition), uses hardware-aware agents to generate and validate code against actual hardware constraints, and orchestrates parallel subagents to handle build, flash, test, and fix cycles. It integrates with real debug probes, logic analyzers, power profilers, and oscilloscopes, and works with 30+ test equipment (e.g., J-Link, ST-Link, OpenOCD, GDB, Saleae, Siglent). Deployment options include Managed SaaS, Customer VPC, On-Premises, and Air-Gapped, with SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and GDPR-aligned controls. It ships as a Design Service, a VS Code extension, and a CLI tool, and is designed for platform migrations, rapid bring-up, debugging, root-cause analysis, and iterative re-validation.
Who itβs for: Firmware engineering teams ( startups and mid-market ) in semiconductors, IoT, medical technology, automotive, and aerospace/defense.
Backed by Combinator; piloted by industry leaders across semiconductors, IoT, medical technology, automotive, and aerospace/defense; multiple deployment options and compliance attestations.
Automate your workflow, from component integration to deployment
Embedder launches a web platform that automates embedded component bring-up, generating production-ready C/C++ drivers from datasheets, and provides a datasheet-aware chat agent, an interactive component viewer, and a community repository. Targeted at embedded software engineers, it aims to reduce manual driver development and streamline hardware integration; a CLI agent mode for flashing, testing, and debugging is planned.
