Company
CircuitHub
On-Demand Electronics Manufacturing
We're building The Grid, a factory-scale robotics platform that produces small batches of electronics faster and cheaper. Customers upload designs, and our system automates manufacturing so companies can prototype and launch without managing factories.
We live in London, England, and the company is based here. After YC, we plan to remain here and expand from this location.
London puts us near top hardware engineers and established manufacturing supply chains. It also gives us access to a mix of industrial customers who need a better way to prototype and produce electronics on demand.
