Duckbill began as a specialized cloud-cost consulting firm and is now evolving into a software company. Its flagship product, Skyway, transforms private cloud pricing agreements into structured data so finance and engineering teams can validate discounts and model future expenses across AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Rather than focusing solely on cost reduction, Skyway emphasizes financial planning and predictability for large, complex cloud footprints, including those driven by fast-growing AI workloads. The newly raised capital will be used to expand Duckbill’s engineering team and accelerate feature development of additional Skyway modules. Co-founders Corey Quinn and CEO Mike Julian leverage years of experience negotiating large-scale cloud contracts to inform the platform’s capabilities. Although the company has not disclosed revenue or user counts, the move from services to software signals an ambition to scale recurring, higher-margin product revenue streams.
