Why we exist
The internet is shared. Its cloud should be too.
- Our mission
- Build cloud infrastructure that is decentralised, transparent and affordable, and open to everyone. Today a handful of companies control the backbone of the digital economy. We think that backbone should be distributed.
- Our vision
- A cloud as open and distributed as the internet itself, where capacity comes from people everywhere and no single company holds the keys.
Our values
What we won't compromise on
Transparency
Open infrastructure and published prices. No hidden fees, and no charge for egress.
Sustainability
Around half the energy of a hyperscale cloud, because we use capacity that already exists.
Community
A global network of operators, built on XE, serving developers and enterprises alike.
Performance
988 edge locations and <15ms median latency, wherever your users are.
The green cloud
Half the energy, because we build nothing new
- No new data centres and no new hardware to manufacture
- Data paths around 50% shorter
- Renewable energy wherever it's available
Our journey
Eight years, from mainnet to a full cloud
We built the network first, then the products on top of it. Each column lights up with everything we had shipped by that year.
