Everett-based Boro Software shipped Shopboard, a job tracker for small machine shops: operators log Start and Done on a floor tablet, and the office gets a live board, a digital traveler per job, and reports on late jobs and actual costs. The company credits agentic development for the delivery speed and is recruiting a small group of founding shops to run it on live work at discounted pricing.

Boro Software's post-mortem on porting freediag, roughly 30,000 lines of C, to Rust in a week with Claude Code agents on a 20x Max plan: the Rust build was validated against the C executable's replay harnesses rather than real cars, and the ported source is public under the original license.
