Your Shenzhen engineering partner for AI hardware. Concept → production.
This repo is the source for breezehw.com — the Breeze website plus four interactive tools that help AI-hardware founders pressure-test cost, compliance, and manufacturability before they commit a dollar.
The site is four calculators and a few content pages, not a product install target. Source is open so you can see how the numbers are computed and whether we're bluffing.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| BOM Cost Estimator | Real component prices at 1K-volume for ESP32-S3, Rockchip (RV1103 / RK3562 / RK3588S), MediaTek Genio, and typical sensor/power/memory stacks. |
| NRE Simulator | Non-recurring engineering cost estimate for your first production run — molds, certifications, engineering samples, factory setup. |
| DFM Checklist | Design-for-manufacturing review surfacing the common first-product failures (thermal, antenna, layout, certification blockers). |
| Cert Navigator | FCC / CE / UKCA / RCM / CCC — what applies, typical cost, typical timeline. |
Each tool emails a PDF report when you submit an email. No login, no funnel.
- Open toolkit (data, checklists, frameworks):
jianjettfu-oss/ai-hardware-toolkit— MIT-licensed source-of-truth behind every interactive tool on this site. Includes a Custom-GPT-ready knowledge bundle inllm-toolkit/custom-gpt/(config.json,instructions.md,knowledge.md) — fork it and stand up your own GPT in 5 minutes. - Outreach kit (PDF, A4, 14pp):
public/breeze-outreach-kit.pdf - Deck (16:9, 14pp):
public/breeze-deck.pdf
- Jett Fu — 10+ years of consumer hardware in Shenzhen. Founder of AirPop (respiratory wearables, global distribution).
- Arting — incubator and outbound. Embedded AI + deal flow.
- Sky — engineering delivery. Factory relationships, cost negotiation, production ramp.
We sell engineering services (NRE + per-unit). The tools and toolkit are open so you can evaluate us on the actual numbers before we ever talk.
- Next.js 15 / React 19 / TypeScript
- Tailwind CSS 4
- Resend (transactional email for tool reports)
- Vercel (hosting)
Deliberately boring. The interesting bits are the pricing data and the checklists, not the framework.
npm install
cp .env.example .env.local # add RESEND_API_KEY if you want to test email capture
npm run devOpen http://localhost:3000.
Prices shift. Certification requirements change. If you spot something wrong or out of date, open an issue with a citation and we'll update it. We care more about the data being right than about keeping the façade up.
