I've been an automotive engineer for years, and the one thing that's always frustrated me is how painfully slow the R&D cycle moves. Weeks to design, weeks to prototype, weeks to test, weeks to analyze — and then you do it all over again.

So I built something to fix it.

DAEDALUS is an autonomous AI discovery foundry that runs the entire design-make-test-analyze loop for software-defined vehicles — without human intervention. ECU firmware, vehicle software stacks, sensor fusion — the full stack.

The foundry is now open, and I'm offering 25% off for the first 3 months to anyone who joins early.

If you're an automotive engineer tired of watching innovation move at a crawl — this is for you. Get in early, shape the roadmap, and build the future of SDV development with us.

Every major OEM is pivoting to software-defined vehicles. The problem? Their R&D processes are still stuck in the 2000s.

The typical automotive development cycle:

1. Design a component or system (weeks of CAD/CAE work)

2. Build a prototype or simulation (more weeks)

3. Test against requirements (even more weeks)

4. Analyze results and iterate (you get the idea)

One loop can take months. Dozens of loops to get production-ready.

What if that entire loop ran autonomously — AI handling design space exploration, simulation setup, test execution, and result analysis — without a human in the middle?

That's what I'm building with DAEDALUS.

I'm an automotive engineer who got tired of watching brilliant teams spend 80% of their time on process overhead instead of actual innovation. The industry has the talent. What it lacks is the tooling to let that talent move at the speed of software.

DAEDALUS is an autonomous AI discovery foundry that runs the design-make-test-analyze loop end to end for SDV systems — ECU firmware, vehicle software stacks, sensor fusion pipelines, the works.

If you're an engineer frustrated by how slow innovation moves in automotive, I'd love to connect.

Building in public. Shipping fast. The foundry is open.
