Solar-Powered Greenhouse Monitor
Autonomous soil moisture, temp and light tracking with auto-drip irrigation. Runs 3 weeks on a single solar charge.
AI PROTOTYPE ENGINEER
The community where hardware makers share builds, spark ideas, join groups, and turn rough concepts into real devices — with AI as the co-engineer.
Real projects from real builders. Browse, remix, and collaborate on hardware prototypes from across the community.
Autonomous soil moisture, temp and light tracking with auto-drip irrigation. Runs 3 weeks on a single solar charge.
3-zone proximity detection with LED bar and buzzer. Fits any vehicle's rear bumper in under an hour.
CO2, PM2.5, temp and humidity with real-time InfluxDB logging and Grafana dashboards.
Glove with flex sensors + IMU that translates hand gestures into G-code commands. Looking for collaborators to design the firmware and housing.
Join groups around the hardware you love. Get feedback, find collaborators, and level up as a team.
Everything ESP32 — Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Matter, and beyond.
Smart home, industrial IoT, MQTT, Home Assistant hacks.
KiCad, EasyEDA, schematic reviews, and production tips.
Servo control, inverse kinematics, motor drivers, and bots.
Buck/boost converters, battery management, and power design.
ProtoGoat's AI Forge turns your rough hardware concept into a complete prototype plan — BOM, firmware, wiring diagram, mechanical design — in under 60 seconds. Then share it with the community to get feedback, remixes, and collaborators.
Type your hardware concept in plain English. The more detail you give, the better the plan.
ProtoGoat AI creates a complete BOM, firmware, wiring diagram, and mechanical design in seconds.
One click publishes your plan to the community. Get feedback, likes, and remixes from other builders.
Fork any community build into your library, modify it with AI, and publish your improved version.
"I described a vague idea for a wearable step counter and got a full BOM, wiring diagram, and working Arduino code in 45 seconds. Then posted it and got 3 collaborators the same day."
"The community groups are where it's at. I found two other PCB designers who helped me shrink my board from 80×80 to 45×30mm. That's the kind of feedback you can't get on Reddit."
"Remixed a parking sensor build into a boat depth sounder in an afternoon. Changed a few sensors, asked AI to update the firmware, downloaded the SVG wiring diagram. Done."
ProtoGoat is launching soon. Get early access, founding member status, and a permanent place in the Community Lab.
