We believe your digital life should belong to you — not to a corporation that profits from it.
Your Data, Your Rules
Open-source collaboration you actually own
— private, portable, and entirely yours.
Be first to launch. Free forever.
How It Works
Three simple steps to own your digital life
Join the waitlist
Enter your email — be the first to know when we launch.
Choose your setup
Self-host on your hardware, or pick a provider.
Own your digital life
Collaborate, share, and connect — entirely on your terms.
Your files stay exactly where you choose
Your documents, photos, and data live where you choose — not on some corporation's servers. No third-party access, no scanning, no surprises.
You keep everything — even if you change providers, move countries, or switch devices.
Edit docs together, privately, in real-time
Collaborate like Google Docs — edit spreadsheets, co-write documents, share files. All in sync, all private, all yours.
Real collaboration with full privacy — your documents are never scanned, indexed, or used for training.
Share with anyone, on any platform
Send files, collaborate on projects, and connect with anyone — whether they use Cloudillo or not. No walled gardens.
Open and federated, just like email — interoperability built in from day one.
Why Cloudillo?
Building on what came before — and going further
The Problem
Your digital identity is scattered across dozens of platforms. Each one holds your data hostage, monetizes your attention, and can change the rules anytime.
What's missing from today's alternatives
Fediverse (Mastodon, etc.)
Great for decentralized social, but your identity stays locked to one server. Changing means starting over.
Self-Hosted (NextCloud, etc.)
Excellent for personal data ownership, but each instance is isolated. Cross-instance collaboration requires shared accounts.
The Cloudillo Innovation
DNS-based portable identity
Your identity is yours—independent of where your data lives. Like an internet passport that works everywhere.
Your identity travels with you
Switch providers without losing connections
Collaborate globally with anyone, anywhere

The European Union must keep funding free software
by Szilárd Hajba
Since 2020, Next Generation Internet (NGI) programmes, part of European Commission's Horizon programme, fund free software in Europe using a cascade funding mechanism (see for example NGI0 Commons Fund). This year, according to the Horizon Europe working draft detailing funding programmes for 2025, we notice that Next Generation Internet is not mentioned any more as part of Cluster 4.
