Hardware is too hard. We're fixing the pipeline.
Software ate the world because anyone with a laptop could ship. Hardware never had that moment. Astrulite is our attempt to give it one.
Why we're here.
Every great physical product starts with a person who has an idea, no co-founder, and no idea where to begin. They open eight forum tabs, two CAD tools, a sourcing spreadsheet, and a half-finished schematic — and most of them quit before they ship a single unit.
Astrulite collapses that mess into one workspace that thinks like a senior product engineer: ask the right questions, propose realistic tradeoffs, and produce a plan you can actually build.
We want the next million hardware companies to come from solo founders, dorm rooms, garage teams, and classrooms — not just the labs that can afford a 12-person engineering org on day one.
How we build.
Engineering, not chat.
Every interaction produces structured artifacts you can hand to a fab, an EE, or a teammate.
Honest tradeoffs.
We flag risk. We say when an idea is too expensive, too fragile, or out of scope.
Open ecosystem.
DigiKey, Mouser, Adafruit, Amazon, AliExpress, JLCPCB, Protolabs — we meet builders where they already buy.
Your designs are yours.
Exportable, ownable, portable. No lock-in.
