We are removing the technical barriers to building hardware.

Tell Rivet what you want to make, in your own words. It picks real parts you can buy, puts them together in a 3D model, shows where every wire goes and writes the code that makes the robot move. You can check each piece, one step at a time, before you spend anything.

Review

See every part, wire and step before you buy.

Turn the robot around in 3D and click any part to see what it does and why Rivet picked it. Rivet makes sure the battery is strong enough, every wire goes to the right place and all the pieces fit, then lets you watch the robot drive around on screen. No hardware know-how needed.

Export

Take the build to your bench.

When you are happy with it, download what you need to make it for real: a shopping list with stores and prices, the full plan, and ready-made code you copy onto the robot's tiny computer with a USB cable. The build steps walk you through putting it together.

What Rivet canBuild today

The indoor rover works from start to finish. Other kinds of robot stay marked as planned until they are built and tested.
