Veecle is changing the way automakers build vehicle software. It’s not just middleware or an abstraction layer - it’s the foundation on which automakers design, build and scale their vehicle operating systems and software stacks. Designing the entire software stack of a vehicle is a monumental challenge. And Veecle provides automakers with two critical components - Veecle Studio and Veecle Core - to build, integrate and manage the entire vehicle software architecture. Together, they provide unprecedented flexibility and control over vehicle functionality.
Veecle Studio: Your Software Development Hub
Veecle Studio is the interface where automakers design, test, and refine their vehicle software. It empowers teams to:
- Create Modular Applications: Automakers can design software components independently, breaking free from the rigid dependencies of traditional middleware.
- Streamline Updates: Rapidly program, test, and deploy feature updates to vehicles, whether it’s a simple interface tweak or a core functionality upgrade.
- Debug with Precision: Collect and analyze real-time data to refine performance and troubleshoot effectively.
With Veecle Studio, automakers control the programming and testing cycle of vehicle apps, ensuring a smooth path from concept to deployment.
Veecle Core: The Software Operating System
At the heart of Veecle’s framework is Veecle Core, the runtime that orchestrates every vehicle function. Acting as the foundational operating system, Veecle Core:
- Integrates Seamlessly: Bridges hardware and software, enabling apps to interact with any part of the vehicle—from seats to drivetrain—through standardized APIs.
- Scales Effortlessly: Supports distributed systems, allowing automakers to integrate legacy and modern components without overhauling existing infrastructure.
- Ensures Stability: Provides a unified layer for all vehicle functions, ensuring reliability and security across diverse applications.
Veecle Core abstracts the complexity of hardware and middleware, giving automakers the freedom to innovate without worrying about system-level constraints.
What Veecle Enables
Scalability Across Vehicle Models
Automakers can standardize their software stacks, reducing costs while ensuring compatibility across their entire fleet—from entry-level microcars to luxury EVs.
Faster Innovation
Veecle’s composable framework accelerates feature development and deployment. Whether it’s over-the-air updates or introducing new technologies, Veecle empowers automakers to move at software speed.
Integration of Legacy Systems
With Veecle, automakers can modernize without starting from scratch. Legacy code and infrastructure can be seamlessly integrated, ensuring a smooth transition to SDVs.
Built-In Safety and Security
Veecle is built entirely in Rust, eliminating common bugs and vulnerabilities while ensuring safety-critical systems meet the highest standards.
The Synergy of Veecle Studio and Core
The two components work in harmony:
- Veecle Studio enables engineers to program, test, and deploy applications.
- Veecle Core ensures these applications run seamlessly across the vehicle’s systems.
From rapid prototyping to production-ready integration, Veecle transforms how automakers build and maintain vehicle software. By empowering teams to control their software architecture, Veecle paves the way for scalable, future-proof vehicles.

Vehicles with Veecle
Global OEMs and Tier1s have built solutions based on Veecle for Advanced Development. They plan to move to production soon. Our tooling allows them to design their software architecture spanning the entire vehicle as well as programming the actual vehicle functionality from the same tool.
Veecle Studio allows them to design a single source of truth for the entire vehicle by including all communication protocols and signals and even the code that runs on each ECU. This ultimately allows them to keep the flexibility because one thing is certain: Things will change - and nobody wants to redesign a monolithic block of software tied to OS, and Middleware.
Internal Prototype
We’ve converted this passenger car to run on veecle technology - in just 6 months. This is significantly faster than the state of the art in the auto industry.
We’ve left most ECUs of the original car in place (e.g. steering, battery management, inverter) and built on top:
- RGB LED matrix as headlights that can display user profiles
veeclecontrols body control functions (central locking, lights, wiper, tailgate)veeclecontrols HVAC systemveeclecontrols comfort functions (seat & mirror positions)- Vehicle functions are programmed in isolated Apps that control existing ECUs. For instance, one app loads the seat position from a user profile and another controls the music volume when the window opens.
