BitBlock: Program Hardware. Without Writing Code.
Stop fighting with C++ pointers, missing libraries, and broken toolchains. BitBlock is a visual programming platform that lets anyone build complex device firmware in minutes directly from the browser.
Hardware is hard. We made it easy.
Traditional embedded development takes hours of setup before you can blink an LED. We've removed all the friction.
- The Old Way: Download gigabytes of IDEs, hunt down USB drivers, struggle with C++ syntax errors, spend hours finding the right libraries.
- The BitBlock Way: Open your browser, snap visual blocks together, click "Compile & Flash", and your hardware is running instantly.
Build hardware in 3 simple steps
- Design visually with blocks: Choose from over 150+ pre-built logic and hardware blocks. Read sensors, control motors, and build complex state machines without writing a single line of syntax.
- Cloud compile instantly: Our cloud infrastructure takes your visual blocks, generates optimized C++ code, and compiles it for your specific board architecture in seconds. No local toolchains required.
- Flash directly from Chrome: Plug your ESP32 or Arduino into your computer's USB port. BitBlock uses the secure WebSerial API to flash the firmware directly from the browser window. It just works.
Train AI models for the edge. Without Python.
Our integrated Machine Learning pipeline lets you collect data from sensors, train neural networks in the cloud, and deploy them to your microcontroller as a single visual block.
- Live Data Collection: Stream raw accelerometer or sensor data directly from your board into our browser-based data labeling tool.
- Cloud Training: We handle the TensorFlow logic. Just choose your architecture, click train, and let our cloud compute nodes build your model.
- Instant Inference: The trained model is automatically quantized and converted into a custom visual block. Snap it into your workspace and run offline inference.
