Cyanogen provides Cyanogen OS to customize mobile devices and operates the CyanogenMod open-source project. Led by CEO Kirt McMaster, the company is based in Palo Alto, CA and Seattle, WA. It completed an $80M Series C financing and has received a total of $110M in funding to date. The company intends to use the funds to hire new people and accelerate development of its open OS platform. Cyanogen's core product focuses on allowing users and partners to customize mobile device and content experiences. Cyanogen develops CyanogenMod (CM), a replacement Android OS that completely replaces the operating system on Android devices with a custom image providing modern Android, multiple themes, and other tweaks. The product is positioned as an alternative mobile platform and is frequently referred to as CM. The company announced it has raised an additional $23 million led by Andreessen Horowitz. The fresh capital is intended to fuel rapid expansion as Cyanogen aims to “grow like crazy” and become the No. 3 mobile platform. The article does not include operating metrics, a product roadmap, or further financial details. Cyanogen builds CyanogenMod, an alternative Android firmware/ROM that adds security, personalization and performance improvements to stock Android. The product is distributed as a flashable ROM that users install to replace the default software on their devices. The project has grown organically to roughly 8 million direct users, and its code is used by other Android variants such as Xiaomi’s MiUI, extending its reach. The team has 17 employees and has transitioned from a hobby project toward a commercial business. With the new funding the company is prioritizing development of a one-click installer to make installation as simple as downloading an app from Google Play. Cyanogen maintains multiple release tracks, including a daily "bleeding edge" build and monthly stable builds to serve both experimental and mainstream users.
