About Daqstra
Summary
Daqstra builds an AI-native API and orchestration layer for physical R&D test infrastructure, serving engineering teams in aerospace, energy, and robotics. It connects fragmented hardware, such as NI DAQ systems, PLCs, and custom devices, into a single platform that unifies live and historical test data across every run. The product replaces the manual work of rebuilding configurations, calibrations, and data pipelines between tests.
Business model
Demo-request sales process; pricing not public.

From the Y Combinator listing
AI-native test infrastructure to accelerate hardware companies.
Daqstra is the AI-native orchestration layer for physical R&D. It saves engineers in Aerospace, Energy and Robotics hundreds of man hours managing test infrastructure by connecting fragmented test hardware, bringing live and historical test data into one place, and by giving engineers an API to orchestrate their entire test setup. We enable teams to spend less time rebuilding test infrastructure and more time improving the hardware they test.
