## What it is

Schematik is an AI-powered hardware IDE targeting the microcontroller development workflow — specifically Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi Pico platforms. It uses AI assistance to make circuit design and firmware programming accessible to software developers and makers who don't have a deep electronics background. The company raised \$4.6M in pre-seed funding and is currently in early access.

Hardware development has historically required expertise across circuit theory, component selection, and platform-specific firmware APIs. Schematik aims to abstract these complexities in the same way that AI coding assistants have lowered barriers to software development — letting you describe what you want to build and have the tooling guide the implementation.

<Tip>
  **Use this when** you're a software developer or maker prototyping hardware for an IoT project, robotics system, or physical computing experiment and you want AI guidance on both the circuit design and firmware without reading datasheets from scratch.
