AI That Writes Your Firmware Code

Pointer's AI agent reads your datasheets, generates drivers, and commits code — then builds it across 46 boards with memory analysis, static checking, and full artifact traceability. The only platform where AI and CI/CD are connected end-to-end.

Firmware development, reimagined

Pointer auto-detects your build system — PlatformIO, ESP-IDF, Zephyr, Arduino, or Makefile — and connects AI to every step. Flash reads your datasheets and writes drivers. Builds run across all your boards. Memory analysis catches regressions. All in one platform, in minutes.

AI and CI/CD, connected end-to-end

Pointer gives your AI agent full access to build results, memory reports, error logs, and artifact history. Write code, build it, analyze it — all in one loop.

Multi-Board Builds

Build firmware for ESP32, STM32, nRF52, and RP2040 simultaneously. One push triggers parallel builds across 46 boards with real-time memory analysis.

Memory Analysis

Track Flash and RAM usage with Bloaty ELF analysis on every build. Section breakdowns, symbol detail, and cross-build trends catch regressions before they ship.

Smart Build Pipeline

From source to artifact in one push. Pointer auto-detects your framework, runs builds, analyzes memory, checks for bugs, and packages firmware — all automatically.

Secure and scalable from day one

Enterprise-grade security features built into every layer. Audit logs, access controls, and build limits — all out of the box.

Build Concurrency Limits

Per-stage or global. Queue firmware builds intelligently with configurable concurrency and throttle limits.

Built for real firmware workflows

From single-board prototypes to multi-target production fleets. 46 boards, 17 chip variants, 5 frameworks — with AI that understands all of it.

Flash AI Agent

AI coding agent with VS Code in the browser. Upload datasheets, generate drivers, debug builds — Flash reads your codebase, writes code, and commits directly to your repo.

AI Build Intelligence

AI analyzes every build result, memory report, and error log. Root cause analysis of failures, fix suggestions, and optimization recommendations — powered by your actual pipeline data.

Multi-Board Builds

Build firmware for 46 boards across ESP32, STM32, nRF52, RP2040, and ESP8266 simultaneously — 17 chip variants, 5 frameworks, one push.

Memory Analysis

Track Flash and RAM usage with Bloaty ELF analysis. Section breakdowns, symbol detail, cross-build trends, and board-to-board comparisons on every build.

Static Analysis

Catch bugs before they hit hardware. Integrated cppcheck runs on every build with severity breakdown, structured findings, and configurable pass/fail thresholds.

Artifact Registry

Checksummed firmware binaries organized by board and version. Download, promote to production, roll back, and trace every binary from commit to device.

GitHub Integration

Automatic builds on push via webhooks. Configure events, view execution history, and retrigger builds — all connected to your GitHub workflow.

Secrets Management

Encrypted environment variables per repo and org. WiFi credentials, API keys, certificates — injected at build time, never stored in source.

Real-time Logs

Stream build output live via SSE. Watch compilations, memory analysis, and static checks as they happen — per stage, per step, per board.
