FLAGSHIP
Who is it for?

A good fit when you have a device idea but no team to take it from circuit design and firmware to a production-ready prototype that works in real-world conditions.

Work stages05 steps
  1. 01Stage

    Spec & concept

    We agree on functions, dimensions, operating environment, and budget.

  2. 02Stage

    Circuit design

    Component selection, power design, ESD/EMC, PCB layout.

  3. 03Stage

    Firmware

    Bare-metal/RTOS, drivers, communication protocols, OTA updates.

  4. 04Stage

    Prototype

    Assembly, debugging, thermal tests, runs under real operating conditions.

  5. 05Stage

    Production

    Documentation for the contract manufacturer, manufacturing oversight.

Why BonsaiWhy engineering teams work with us
01

Hardware + Firmware

Circuit design, PCB layout, and firmware in one team.

02

Production-ready

Documentation for contract manufacturing, plus manufacturing oversight.

03

Real-world operation

ESD/EMC, thermal tests, and runs under real operating conditions before release.

04

OTA & diagnostics

Devices stay manageable and updatable after release.
