Hi,

First of all, congrats on the launch. I have worked with many such products and this is something that is required. There is no one solution fits all in this domain. Each vendor has their quirks that. So this is overall a great problem to tackle and kudos to you for taking this up.

Could you elaborate a bit more on how this is different from Renode?

Also you are entering into a market that has well established legacy players. Most of the firmware is developed in China. How do you intend to make a space for yourself in such a scenario.

Thank you, and for sure market is very fragmented. Which is exactly why we are starting small and modelling deep with stm32 as our workhorse here. The quirks we are finding them everyday! I have seen mcu controller behaviour from neither errata nor datasheet and thats the beauty of field testing.

I think our biggest difference to renode is the silicon validation and our commitment to keeping our simulation honest. I have struggled to find simulators that people actually put the measured differences and that is the direction we will go. We haven’t put our silicon validation benchmarks public yet but we will in the coming months!

As for legacy players, they don’t fill the niche enough. Thats why we exist and as a startup can fill this niche for the people that need it, whether its china, or anywhere else.
