We've seen your problem before.

Most embedded teams arrive at the same four breaking points. Here's how ROSA addresses each of them, and what that looks like in practice.

Challenge 01

Your platform works. But maintaining it is killing your roadmap.

You built a platform that does the job. But over time, the maintenance burden has grown faster than the team. Patches, driver updates, hardware bring-ups, security fixes. It never stops, and new features keep getting pushed back.

The platform wasn't designed to be maintained by someone else, which means the knowledge is concentrated in a few people. The bus factor is real.

How ROSA helps

  • — ROSA can slide in as the hardware abstraction layer beneath your existing platform. No rip and replace required.
  • — Platform maintenance, driver updates, and long-term support become our responsibility, not yours
  • — Your team's time shifts from maintenance back to product development
  • — Fixed cost, predictable planning. No surprise overruns when something breaks.

Challenge 02

You need a platform. But building one from scratch isn't in the budget.

Your products are growing in complexity. You know you need a proper embedded software foundation. But scoping it, staffing it, and paying for it is a multi-year commitment your organisation isn't ready to make.

So the team keeps improvising. Technical debt compounds. And every new product makes the problem slightly worse.

How ROSA helps

  • — ROSA gives you an enterprise-grade platform at roughly 25% of what internal development would cost
  • — You get a complete foundation (hardware abstraction, connectivity, module library) without the team to build it
  • — Start with what you need today, expand the module library as your products grow
  • — Certification, LTS, and security are included. Not extras you have to plan for separately.

Challenge 03

You want to add variants. But you're afraid of what that does to what you've already built.

Your platform works for the product it was built for. But now the business wants a second hardware target. Or a new product line on the same foundation. Or a regional variant with different connectivity requirements.

Every time you touch the platform to accommodate something new, you risk breaking what already works. The team knows this. So does management, even if they don't say it out loud.

How ROSA helps

  • — >95% of application logic reuses across hardware platforms and operating systems by design
  • — Architectural guard rails enforced at build time. Changes can't silently break existing products.
  • — New hardware targets are a configuration change, not an architecture rewrite
  • — ROSA was designed for variant management. It's the core use case, not an afterthought.

Challenge 04

You're moving from bare metal to RTOS. And it's taking much longer than it should.

The decision was made. The direction is right. But the team is discovering that the transition from bare metal to RTOS development is a different kind of engineering problem, and the expertise required isn't easy to hire or develop quickly.

Demonstrators drag on for months. Confidence erodes. Leadership starts asking questions.

"Bare metal to RTOS transitions that typically drag on for months can be up and running in days with ROSA."

How ROSA helps

  • — ROSA abstracts the RTOS complexity. Your team works with clean, consistent APIs regardless of what's underneath.
  • — First working module on real hardware in under 24 hours, not weeks
  • — Automated HIL testing frameworks validate your system as you build, not after the fact
  • — Our team has done this transition at scale. We can accelerate yours directly.
