We write the software.You bring the hardware.
OpenRivet is an open-source lab building AI-native software for embedded systems.
A rivet joins two parts so they work as one.
Our software does the same for AI and embedded devices: AI is part of the software from the first line of code, not added later.
This lets devices see, sense and decide on their own, without depending on the cloud.
We do not make hardware.We write the software that runs on the chips, boards and controllers already inside IoT devices, factory machines and production lines.
Factory machines need AI that
- runs on small chips
- works offline
- responds in milliseconds
- keeps data on site
We design, build and release that software in the open, so any engineer, student or manufacturer can use it, study it and improve it.
Runs on hardware you already have
You choose the board, and OpenRivet supplies the intelligence.
What we build
Software only.
Nothing here yet.
Who it is for
Embedded and IoT engineers
who want AI inside their device software
Factory and automation teams
who want smarter machines without replacing their hardware
Hardware companies
that want ready AI software for their boards
Students and researchers
who want real embedded AI problems to work on
Our principles
Software only, hardware-agnostic
We support many boards and do not lock you into one.
Edge first
Everything runs on the device and works offline.
Open by default
Code, models and documentation ship under open licenses.
Small and fast
Every byte of memory and every millisecond counts.
Private by design
Data stays where it is created.
