BootLoop Launches New Test Platform to Bring AI-Powered Hardware-in-the-Loop Testing to Every Team
New framework enables any hardware company to go from zero testing infrastructure to a fully automated pipeline in days.
BootLoop, the AI platform for firmware and embedded development, announced the launch of BootLoop Test, an end-to-end hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing framework built to make automated, hardware-validated testing accessible to every team. Backed by Y Combinator and founded by engineers from SpaceX and the MIT Media Lab, BootLoop gives hardware companies the engineering resources previously available only at large enterprises.

Most hardware companies know they need more rigorous firmware testing, they just don’t have the time or the tools. We built BootLoop Test so they don’t have to choose between shipping quickly and shipping robust code.
HIL testing is one of the most valuable practices a hardware company can adopt, yet the vast majority operate without any rigorous testing infrastructure. Historically, building a hardened HIL framework required dedicated test engineers, months of custom development, and specialized skills that most firmware teams don’t have. As a result, many companies either forgo testing entirely or rely on ad hoc scripts and manual validation processes that slow development cycles, miss errors, and cause fragile release processes.
“Most hardware companies know they need more rigorous firmware testing,” said Noah Pacik-Nelson, CEO of BootLoop. “They just don’t have the time or the tools. We built BootLoop Test so they don’t have to choose between shipping quickly and shipping robust code.”
BootLoop Test solves these problems by providing a complete HIL platform that spans the entire embedded product lifecycle. Key capabilities include:
- Zero to CI in Hours: Using a single command install, teams can go from zero testing infrastructure to a full CI pipeline on real hardware in hours.
- AI-Generated, Hardware-Accurate Tests: BootLoop’s agent ingests PCB design files and component datasheets to automatically generate tests that validate real hardware behavior down to the register level.
- One Framework, Bench to Production Line: The comprehensive framework unifies bench, CI, and end-of-line validation on a single platform.
