The company offers virtual development boards programmable through API calls alongside an AI code reviewer that uses simulation as an automated verification engine. These tools are tailored for both bare-metal and real-time operating system environments used in satellites and flight controllers. To ensure fidelity, the team runs continuous hardware validation rigs that keep software models matched to real-world components.

Hi HN, we're Ahnaf and Seungmin from Simantic (
https://simantic.com). We are building the simulation layer that lets engineers and AI agents test and validate firmware without hardware.
Before Simantic, we were ex-firmware engineers at companies like Neuralink and Tesla. We’ve worked on some of the coolest projects, like the Cybertruck and Roadster, back when they were still early prototypes.
We started working on firmware back when ChatGPT didn’t exist yet, but over the years, we saw how much of the engineering and development work has been automated as the frontier models improved to this point. In software, AI can run and test code inside your computer in a matter of seconds. But as firmware engineers, we didn’t have that luxury. An AI agent can write firmware in seconds, but in order to test it, we had to flash a physical board, then manually run tests using expensive and clunky tools with software made over a decade ago.
To speed up the validation loop, we built the simulation layer that lets AI agents test the firmware and make decisions based…
Shoppers can secure the versatile Varmblixt fixture at a promotional rate of $79.99 through November 11th. The updated device functions as ambient or bedside lighting, offering table or wall-mounted placements alongside 180 lumens of illumination. Its broad wireless capabilities make it a flexible addition to modern smart home ecosystems.
Databricks is adapting its governance model as serverless usage surged more than threefold over the past year. Because traditional infrastructure settings no longer apply to these environments, new mechanisms attach directly to workloads and users. This shift ensures platform administrators can track granular attribution, configure proactive spend limits, and govern user access across notebooks, jobs, and pipelines.
Microsoft has re-engineered how its operating system interacts with active software processes to eliminate launch delays. By allowing programs to register at startup, the operating system bypasses intermediary discovery steps when opening links or app shortcuts. This architecture yields the strongest performance benefits during heavy multitasking, and the underlying technology is being made available to external developers and rival browsers.
