Hardware + Software Design Studio · Bengaluru, India

We build products
from first principles
to final prototype.

Formic Labs is a full-stack product realization studio. We take ambitious ideas from concept to manufacturing-ready — hardware, firmware, and software, together.

What we build

Our capabilities

All services →
01 ——

End-to-end product realization

From brief to BOM. We own the full product development cycle — scoping, architecture, engineering, and manufacturing handoff. One team, zero handover friction.

Concept Prototype MFG-ready BOM
02 ——

Hardware design

PCB layout and schematic capture, enclosure and mechanical design, embedded systems architecture, and DFM-aware engineering for production confidence.

PCB design Embedded Enclosures DFM
03 ——

Software & firmware

Firmware development, RTOS and bare-metal integration, cloud connectivity pipelines, companion mobile apps, and web dashboards for your hardware product.

Firmware RTOS Cloud Mobile apps
04 ——

IoT & connected systems

Sensor hardware, wireless protocols (BLE, NFC, LoRa, Wi-Fi), edge processing, secure cloud data pipelines, and real-time monitoring dashboards.

BLE NFC LoRa MQTT Dashboards

How we work

A clear path from idea to product.

Design and engineering move in parallel — not sequentially. We run lean, fast, and without siloes.

01 ——

Discovery

Define scope, requirements, and technical constraints. Feasibility review and project roadmap.

02 ——

Design sprint

Architecture, schematics, and firmware stack. Parallel hardware and software design tracks.

03 ——

Prototype

Rapid iteration cycles. Functional prototypes, test rigs, and performance validation.

04 ——

Handoff

Production-ready files, BOM, vendor sourcing, and full manufacturing documentation.

  Built in-house

The same standard we hold for our clients, we hold for ourselves.

Formic Tag is our own product — an 18mm clinical-grade NFC temperature sensing tag for pharmaceutical and cold-chain logistics. It's proof that we take a complex hardware product all the way from concept to production-ready, entirely in-house.

Client work

We've shipped products we can't fully show — but we can talk about them.

Past work spans EV charging infrastructure, industrial IoT sensors, and connected devices. Reach out and we'll walk you through what we've built under NDA.
