Deliver your platform strategy*, not another tool
*an internal developer platform (IDP) that turns your platform engineering strategy into adoption you can measure, delivery you can see and compliance checked before the deploy. Self-hosted, air-gapped or sovereign cloud.
In production with
Nobody knows if it works. An IDP does.
You approved the platform. Now answer three questions: How many teams use it? Is it under control? How fast do teams get what they need?
Cycloid answers all three from the platform itself, live, instead of from a spreadsheet someone compiles after the fact.
Most teams can’t answer them yet. Of 518 platform teams surveyed, 29.6% don’t measure their own success, and 47.4% run the platform on under $1M a year. DORA found 90% of organisations have adopted at least one platform. Owning one isn’t unusual. Proving it works is.

When platform quality is high, the effect of AI adoption on organizational performance becomes strong and positive. Conversely, when platform quality is low, the effect of AI adoption on organizational performance is negligible.
DORA Platform engineering capability, January 2026
Whatever you committed to AI this year executes on the platform you already have. DORA is unambiguous about what that means, and it’s the finding worth taking upstairs.
One view, not four spreadsheets.
An assistant gets the access its owner has. No more.
Under the hood
No lock-in you have to take on trust
Every layer is documented and swappable, and the exit path is written down. What you build is stored in open formats: Terraform and OpenTofu, GraphQL, JSON Schema and OpenFGA.
Self-hosted, air-gapped or sovereign, with access and audit settled before a resource exists.
Adoption analytics and dashboards show who uses the platform and what it runs.
Teams get environments through approved paths instead of a ticket queue.

Headcount it takes to run
At least two engineers, permanently
Your platform team, on Blueprints
What that headcount costs
Two salaries, fully loaded, every year ($118,028 average each, State of Platform Engineering, 2024)
From €39 per user per month on Advanced, annual.

One request, one form.
One dashboard your CFO can read.
One platform, five jobs
01
One catalogue for every team
Landing zones, infrastructure and applications in a single place. Discovery shows what already runs in your AWS, Azure, GCP and Kubernetes accounts.
02
Rules that run inside the form
Forms turns a Terraform or OpenTofu module into a web form, and policy checks every submission. A non-compliant resource is refused before it exists. Compliance stops being a quarterly project.
03
One identity model, people and assistants
Predefined roles scoped to your org, with conditions and approvals on top. SSO through Entra ID, Okta, Keycloak, OIDC or SAML, MFA through your identity provider, and full audit trails, refused actions included. The same model covers an assistant as covers a person.
04
Delivery speed you can show
DORA metrics computed in the platform: deployment frequency, lead time for changes, change failure rate and time to restore, per team, from the deployments Cycloid already runs and records.
05
Adoption you can put on a slide
Composable dashboards show which teams use the platform, how often they deploy and what they run, from the same governed data.
Deployment
Deploy it where your strategy says it lives
Works with the Terraform and OpenTofu, Ansible and Helm you already run, and with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI or any CI through a webhook.
What it means
Where your data sits
Self-hosted, on-prem or bare metal
Runs on your infrastructure. Cycloid has no access after deployment.
Your network, air-gapped supported. Fits sovereign and classified estates.
Dedicated SaaS
We run it in a cloud account you choose.
AWS, Azure, GCP, or EU providers Scaleway, OVH and Outscale.
Hybrid
We manage the control plane, workloads stay with you.
Data stays local.
SaaS
Fastest route to a working platform, nothing to run.
EU-hosted available.

Cycloid acts as both an umbrella for our integrated cloud services and a daily tool for DevOps and Platform Engineers users.
