Access real hardware without shipping boards.
Reach boards and fixtures from anywhere without shipping hardware or screen-sharing benches.
Hardware often lives on one person's desk, in one lab, or in one factory. Debugging slows down when the right person, laptop, cable, and board aren't in the same place.
Hardware gets stranded. A board on a colleague's desk during their vacation, a fixture in a factory across an ocean, a reference design locked to a home office — each blocks the next hour of work. Teams ship boards around, screen-share over slow VPNs, or just wait.
Embroid keeps devices reachable through local control surfaces and optional cloud coordination, so teams can run sessions, capture logs, and inspect device behavior without moving hardware.
An Embroid-attached bench is reachable from anywhere the team needs it. Leases keep access explicit and time-bounded. Logs, power state, and session history are preserved centrally — so the person driving the device doesn't need to be the one who set it up.
How Remote Hardware Access works with Embroid
- 01Operator sets up the bench once and keeps it online.
- 02Remote teammate reserves a lease through the web UI, CLI, or CI.
- 03Commands and logs stream to the teammate's session.
- 04Session record is saved; bench returns to the queue on lease expiry.
What teams get from Remote Hardware Access
- Run sessions against devices in any location
- Capture serial logs, power state, and GPIO events remotely
- Preserve reproducible device state across time zones
- Skip the ship-back-and-wait debugging cycle

What the record looks like
Every remote session produces a record: who connected, which device they leased, which verbs they invoked, and which logs were captured. Safe to review, audit, or share with the original bench owner.
A realistic rollout
Install Basic on the bench that needs to be reachable. Verify local workflows first.
Enable connected mode and invite the first remote teammates. Set up leases and roles.
Expand to additional benches or roll out Pro for shared labs.
