Engineering impact

Less manual work.Faster time to market.

  • More Engineering Capacity

    More engineering hours available for high-value design work, not repetitive layout tasks

  • More Prototype Cycles

    More design iterations fit inside the same development window

  • Less Development Time

    Less time from a hardware requirement to a production-ready board

  • Less Manual Engineering

    Routine schematic and layout work handled automatically, not by hand

Vasil Kumanov, Co-Founder and CEO of Hardo

Hardware engineering is too complex to waste expert time on repetitive work. Engineers should spend their time on the hard problems, not the repetitive ones.

With every board

What engineers get

Native KiCad project

Schematic and layout you can open, edit and route your way

Fab-ready files

Gerbers and a BOM, ready to send to your fab

Check report

Electrical, design-rule and manufacturability checks with every build

Verified parts

Each part onboarded from its datasheet and reviewed by a hardware engineer

Revisions

Every change saved as a new revision of the design

Your own rules

Your rules checked alongside Hardo’s on every run

Security and IP

Your designs stay yours

Your boards are your IP. This is how Hardo treats them.

  • No training on your designsWe never use customer designs to train Hardo unless you opt in.
  • Standard files, no lock-inEverything Hardo makes is a normal KiCad project. Take it to any tool or fab.
  • Invite-only accessAccounts are by invitation during the private beta.
