AssembleAI
AssembleAI autonomously conducts the scientific method on real hardware.
Spec-Driven Experimentation
Define what your hardware should do. The AI designs and runs experiments to test it.
Real Instrument Control
Directly configures your oscilloscope, power profiler, and logic analyzer. No scripts, no manual setup.
Root Cause to Verified Fix
Measures, diagnoses, modifies firmware, and re-measures in a closed loop until the spec passes.

Unit Tests Directly From Engineering Specs

Extracts measurable test cases directly from your engineering requirements, autonomously, with full fidelity.

Autonomously creates test cases given an ERS / ERD.
Extracts Engineering Requirements at Full Fidelity
Parses your ERS / ERD and captures every measurable spec without losing precision.
Automatically Generates Runnable Test Cases
Translates each requirement into a hardware-ready test with pass/fail criteria built in.
Fully Editable and Fully Traceable Test Specs
Engineers can edit any test before it runs, and every result traces back to its requirement.

Tests run autonomously to fix power regressions, timing issues, protocol problems, etc.

Catch Every Power Regression

Continuously tests every firmware build, identifies every regression, and validates fixes on your hardware in seconds.

Continuous Power Profiling on Real Hardware
An SMU measures current and voltage on every build so regressions surface before they ship.
Traces Every Spike Back to Its Root Cause
Cross-references power traces with code diffs and peripheral configs to pinpoint the offending driver.
Patches, Reflashes, and Re-Measures
Applies the fix, programs the board, and confirms the build meets your power budget.
Regressions fixed within seconds

Correct Every Timing Issue

Captures waveforms with an oscilloscope in the loop, detects timing violations, and autonomously corrects them on your hardware.

Live Waveform Capture from Your Board
Acquires real signals via an oscilloscope to validate rise times, pulse widths, and clock edges after every build.
Nanosecond-Precision Timing Checks
Compares every measurement against datasheet specs and flags setup/hold or frequency violations instantly.
Fixes Timer Configs and Re-Verifies on Hardware
Adjusts prescalers, clock dividers, or GPIO settings, then rebuilds, reflashes, and re-captures to confirm the fix.

Debug Every Protocol Problem

Captures protocol data with a logic analyzer in the loop, detects communication errors, and autonomously fixes them on your hardware.

Autonomously debug communication protocols.
Real-Time Protocol Decode on Live Buses
A logic analyzer captures and decodes I²C, SPI, UART, and CAN traffic straight from your running hardware.
Catches Every Bus Error Automatically
Detects ACK/NACK failures, clock-stretching violations, bus contention, and malformed frames automatically.
Corrects Configs, Reflashes, and Re-Captures
Fixes baud rates, address assignments, or bus settings, then programs the board and verifies clean transactions.
