Chiplab by Veecle features

  • Virtual silicon. Runs firmware on a chip-accurate virtual instance with real peripheral behavior.
  • Single MCP call. Agents invoke compile, simulate, test or benchmark with one endpoint.
  • Corpus learning. Each run adds results to a shared corpus searchable by agents.
  • Remote licensed toolchains. Compiles with IAR, ARMCC, HighTec etc. without local installation.
  • Synthetic sensor injection. Feeds generated sensor data (camera, CAN, IMU) into live simulation.
  • Automated test reporting. Provides verdict, trace, coverage and regression info per run.
