About Peeriot

We’re Building What the Edge Needs Next.

Peeriot brings together engineers, builders, and industry experience to create open technologies for distributed systems and real-world edge applications.

Our Mission

Making the Edge More Open and Programmable

We develop open technologies that make it easier to build, run, and connect software across diverse hardware, from Linux systems to supported microcontrollers. Our mission is to give developers and companies a practical foundation for creating distributed edge applications that can operate securely and reliably in real-world environments.

Our Vision

Devices Working Together, Without Boundaries

We envision a world where software can move beyond isolated devices, proprietary platforms, and unnecessary cloud dependencies. A world where different types of hardware can work together as part of distributed systems that are open, adaptable, and built for the environments in which they operate.

The Challenge

Moving Beyond Fragmented Edge Systems

Today’s edge environments bring together different devices, operating systems, and hardware architectures, often relying on separate tools and proprietary platforms. This makes distributed applications harder to build, connect, and operate across real-world environments.

Our Approach

A Practical Foundation for the Edge

We take an open, systems-level approach to the edge, making it easier to build, run, and connect applications across diverse hardware and real-world environments.

Open & Modular

Built around open technologies that give developers greater visibility, flexibility, and control.

Distributed by Design

Designed for devices to communicate and coordinate locally, reducing unnecessary dependence on centralized cloud infrastructure.

Built for Diverse Hardware

Supports environments spanning Linux systems and supported microcontrollers, bringing different classes of hardware together.

Developer Focused

Designed to make building, testing, and operating distributed edge applications more accessible and manageable.

Our Team

Different Expertise. One Shared Direction.

Breaking new ground requires exceptional talent. Our team is built around more than 15 senior experts with extensive interdisciplinary experience and impressive track records in deep-tech industries and innovative startups. Many have previously contributed significantly to pioneering advancements in technology, making them ideally suited to drive our vision forward.
