Booting cockpit

Ship automotive software faster.

Build, test, and deploy Android Automotive on cloud-native infrastructure that plugs into your GitLab workflow.

What's in a build?

Nine layers, dozens of vendors, each with its own toolchain and release cadence, compiled, integrated, and signed into one bootable image.

Push code. Get a bootable image.

Burst compute and build snapshots turn a full AAOSP build from an overnight job into minutes.

android-builds.log
$ git push origin feat/hvac-controls✓ Pipeline triggered (#2847)→ fetch, compile, integrate, sign✓ Build complete (8m 42s)

One build, a fleet of cockpits.

Every merge request gets its own emulators in the browser. No bench hardware.

nullctl
$ nullctl emulator create --count 6✓ emu-01 … emu-06 provisioning✓ 6/6 booted, multi-display ready

Every signal, every property, every run.

Behavioral tests drive VHAL properties on real emulators and catch regressions before the road does.

test-runner.log
$ nullctl test android android✓ HVAC_TEMPERATURE_SET < 50ms✗ GEAR_SELECTION timeout → retry ✓✓ 412/412 passed

Code, CI, and the cockpit in one tab.

Cloud workspaces put your editor, your pipeline, and a live emulator side by side in the browser. Push a change and watch the new build boot on the dash.

From commit to cockpit.
