FoundriesFactory provides turn-key services to develop, secure, deploy and maintain your embedded, IoT or Edge product.
Foundries.io announces a $3.5M funding round to advance its secure operating
system platform.
After more than two years in development we have accomplished two major milestones in the last month.
These are two subjects that tend not to go together in a standard blog, but bear with me please, there
is a connection.
We are life long open source maintainers and contributors who are tired of fragmented embedded software. Rather than complaining about the state of the union, we created an open platform which implements standards throughout. The goal being to enable product developers to build upon a common software base, and provide tooling to accelerate time to market.
Leverage our team's decades of experience shipping embedded products by starting your next project in a FoundriesFactory.

Our vision is to deliver an open, customizable, secure OS and firmware platform for an IoT/Edge product’s lifetime. We aim for cross-industry adoption, with no lock-in. We use industry standards and a new business model to disrupt the status quo of the fragmented IoT device market.
Foundries maintains two free open source microPlatform distributions - one for SoCs running Linux, and one for microcontrollers using the Zephyr RTOS. The commercial FoundriesFactory cloud service enables customers to tailor Linux to their own hardware, IP and use case, and to securely deploy and maintain software for their IoT and Edge devices over their product lifetimes.
FoundriesFactory has an annual subscription business model, priced per product. There are no per unit royalties, per transaction or per update fees. For start-ups and small companies we offer a 50% discount for the FoundriesFactory for the first two years. You may stop your subscription at any time and will retain all the source code for your product up to that time with no lock-in.
FoundriesFactory supports any hardware that can run Linux. It is specifically designed to enable customization to your own hardware and use case. For getting started we support a range of standard development boards for Arm, Intel and RISC-V. FoundriesFactory is designed to give maximum flexibility to OEMs to define their unique needs.
