# Welcome

**Root Access** is an applied AI company building tools for engineering teams in regulated industries. **Seb** is our coding agent for hardware, purpose-built for embedded systems development. **Hideout** is our agent management platform for deploying, monitoring, and controlling AI agents.

## How it works

Five steps, in order:

1. [**Set up a project**](/guide/setup-project) — connect a GitHub or GitLab repo, (optionally) link Jira or Linear, and bring in your requirements.
2. [**Add hardware & context**](/guide/hardware-context) — upload datasheets, BOM, schematics, and supporting docs; target a compliance standard; tune SEB.md.
3. [**Run agents**](/guide/run-agents) — describe your tasks and launch agents. Seb automatically links relevant Jira tickets, Linear issues, or requirements.
4. [**Set up HIL test benches**](/guide/test-benches) — hardware-in-the-loop testing: agents run tests and firmware directly on your real hardware while they work.
5. [**Review in the CLI**](/guide/review-in-cli) — pull agents' work with `/pull`, review, edit, and debug with Seb.

## Platform and the CLI

| ------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Platform** | Set up projects, orchestrate different instances of Seb, configure tests, and manage org and integrations.                                                                              |
| **CLI**      | Work directly with Seb on a specific task. Pull an agent's work locally with `/pull` to review, edit, and debug alongside Seb. Enable Platform hardware interaction with `seb connect`. |

## Get started

[Install Seb and create an account](/install), then continue to [step 1](/guide/setup-project).
