Show HN: EEBench – AI agents design real circuits, graded by physics simulation

EEBench – AI agents design real circuits, graded by physics simulation is active in the show hn launch space.

Profile

Hi HN — we build atopile, an open-source language and compiler for designing circuit boards in code. People kept asking us "can AI just design the board?" — so we measured it.EEBench is a set of original EE tasks: design-from-spec, datasheet comprehension, design review, picking real parts that actually exist. Agents submit design source, not prose. The grader runs compiler checks and simulations, and scores measured behavior — transients, thresholds, tolerance corners — against the spec. No human graders, no LLM-as-judge. When a score says the rail sagged below 3.0 V during brown-out, that's a waveform, not an opinion.Things that surprised us:The frontier cluster spans roughly 45–72% (Claud

The company sits in the show hn launch segment, where it competes on its core product or service.

Directory data places it at the Show HN launch stage.
