What is this project all about?

Cubbit is the only cloud storage platform that gives you the comfort of the cloud combined with total privacy and full ownership of your data - all while being 10 times more eco-friendly than competitive solutions.

The magic trick is distribution. Indeed, Cubbit doesn’t need any polluting data center, as it runs on a peer-to-peer network of distributed nodes owned by the users - the Cubbit Cells.

On the top of the network runs an Artificial Intelligence - Show more

What is the project goal and who is the project for?

We are building a decentralized cloud storage platform - one that needs no data center and has the privacy of the users at heart. The goal is to put the users in control of their own data as well as to offer an eco-friendly alternative to today's polluting server farms. The target group is everyone who cares about our planet and wants to take back control of their own data.

Vision

The Cubbit of today is the first step towards the Cubbit of tomorrow. Today, tShow more

Why would you support this project?

Because Cubbit is the only alternative to a market that respects neither your privacy nor the environment.

  • In 2020 alone, the number of records exposed has increased to 36 billion globally.
  • Worldwide, data centers consume 250 terawatt hours per year, which is more than the entire electricity consumption of Spain.

Cubbit makes all this nonsense a thing of the past thanks to its one-a-kind peer-to-peer zero-knowledge architecture.

How will we use the money if the project is successfully funded?

With the money raised we will ship you the Cubbit Cell and let you enjoy all the benefits of Cubbit. Plus, we will invest in the improvement of the software. In particular, the next features in our roadmap are the Instant Upload and the option for the users to expand the cloud storage space on their Cubbit account by plugging in an external hard drive.

Finally, 5% will be donated to ZeroCO2 to make the world greener and sustain developing countries.

Who are the people behind the project?

Cubbit was founded in Italy in 2016 by Stefano Onofri (CEO), Alessandro Cillario (COO), Marco Moshettini (CTO), and Lorenzo Posani (Cofounder and advisor). Today, Cubbit counts more than 40 employees.

Over the course of the last 4 years, Cubbit has raised €3.3M from multiple investors and grants. Cubbit counts Techstars and Barclays among its global partners and has achieved international recognition through several awards granted by organizations such as MShow more
