Create, simulate, and collaborate on digital circuits
Create, simulate, and collaborate on electronic circuits in your browser. Test digital circuits with advanced simulation engine and AVR microcontroller support. Perfect for hardware engineers, makers, and students.
Hey Product Hunt community! 👋
I'm Collins Abitekaniza, the creator of Scratchboard.io. We built this platform to solve a pain point I experienced firsthand as an embedded systems developer in Africa – the high cost and limited access to hardware for testing and development.
Scratchboard.io lets you build and test embedded systems in a virtual environment, making hardware development accessible to everyone, everywhere. Whether you're a student learning the basics, a professional prototyping ideas, or a startup testing concepts, you can now do it all without investing in expensive hardware.
Some key features we're excited to share:
Real-time microcontroller simulation
Collaborative workspaces for team projects
Intuitive interface that grows with you
Risk-free environment for experimentation
For our Product Hunt launch, we're offering exclusive pricing to the first 100 users with code EARLY100.
I'll be here all day to answer questions and gather your feedback. Let me know what you think – I'm especially curious to hear about your hardware development challenges and how we could help solve them! 🚀

Who hunted Scratchboard?
Scratchboard was hunted by Collins Abitekaniza. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
