Overview

Cloudforce builds nebulaONE, a Microsoft Azure-native platform that enables universities, healthcare systems, and other regulated institutions to run leading AI models (OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, etc.) inside their own cloud tenants while meeting FERPA, HIPAA, and GDPR requirements. The product supports more than 3 million users across over 90 institutions worldwide, including Oxford, UCLA, and London Business School, and it has achieved 100 % subscriber retention and double-digit quarterly revenue growth in 2025. By coupling software with consulting, change-management services, and forward-deployed engineers, Cloudforce positions itself as end-to-end infrastructure for institutional AI adoption. The firm was named Microsoft’s 2025 Education Partner of the Year and 2024 Supplier of the Year, underscoring a deep technical alignment with Microsoft Azure. With fresh capital, the company plans to accelerate global expansion, hire aggressively in 2026, introduce vertical-specific AI agents for education and healthcare, and move further into the public sector. Cloudforce has already obtained HIPAA certification and landed its first half-dozen healthcare customers, signaling early traction beyond higher education. Its “AI for All” vision aims to lower costs and eliminate data-privacy trade-offs that historically limited access to advanced models.
