Hey HN, I am 16y/o and have been working on Sprocket for a while. It's an open-source AI agent that beats every other agent out there at both hardware and software.

And here's the best part: Sprocket can (on its own) buy anything from any website when you tell it to do so. From hardware parts to SaaS subscriptions.

Sprocket retrieves best-in-class context from the web for everything it does. It is therefore incredibly reliable. The agent harness's quality, performance, and UI rival that of Codex/Cursor/T3Code, and we are rapidly improving. We will be releasing benchmarks on how Sprocket beats every other agent at both software and hardware soon.

In terms of hardware design, Sprocket can make beautiful schematics in react, create your BOM, and create detailed assembly instructions.

Hope you try it out!

Thanks, Aarav

Gr8 work boy

Looks like you used Prava to handle the agentic payments. Really neat!

Yup, I am actually participating in their agentic commerce hackathon with this project

This idea is so smart I think USA should hire him In there projects

The site is down... please check...

please check back in 20 mins

you should create more sockpuppet accounts to write nice comments ;)

Did you look at the project btw? Any opinions?

Yep, it's pretty cool! I actually tried building a tiny robot car myself before, but I don't have a hardware background, so it was really challenging to learn everything and source all the components.

I even used an AI agent (OpenClaw) to help me with the project, but I still ran into a lot of obstacles—things like circuit diagrams, wiring, hardware tools, and understanding the documentation. Eventually, I gave up... haha.

I think your tool could really help people like me who want to build hardware projects but don't have much experience. It's a great idea!

Sorry, these aren't puppet accounts, btw, just accounts of some friends and family who somehow found this project.

riiight... kinda like the last time something like this happened ("friends" instead of "team mates") ;)

These comments are pretty different from that post. You will also notice that they don't match my writing style at all. I would never say that these comments are helpful to a Hacker News post. I genuinely wish these comments weren't here :(
