About CrowmanCloud

CrowmanCloud is the AI‑powered pre‑deployment platform that helps developers ship cloud‑ready apps faster. We analyze code for readiness, generate infrastructure and CI, provide cloud recommendations, and estimate costs—so you can focus on building.

Our mission

Close the gap between local development and cloud production. We believe developers should get actionable guidance, automation, and cost visibility before CI/CD ever runs.

In numbers

  • • 6+ core capabilities shipped in beta
  • • Seconds to generate Docker & CI
  • • Cost insights before deploy

What we stand for

Developer-first

Every decision starts from the command line and ends with a delightful UI. We obsess over DX and measurable productivity.

Secure by default

Best‑practice defaults, secret hygiene, and guardrails that help teams ship with confidence.

Open & community-driven

We grow with our community—roadmaps in public, feedback loops in weeks, not quarters.

Practical AI

AI where it’s useful: code insights, automation, and recommendations—not gimmicks.

The founders

Founders

CrowmanCloud began as a small side project. Shivam Thorat, co-founder, wanted to make cloud deployment easier for developers. As more people started using the tool, he brought on two former colleagues Varun Thakare and Pranit Dhumal to help build something bigger. Together, they founded CrowmanCloud.

Today, CrowmanCloud has grown into a leading platform for cloud deployment analysis, and the same three founders still guide the company forward.

Our Story

Every developer has faced this: your app runs fine on your computer, but once you try to deploy it to the cloud, everything starts to break. Configuration problems, security risks, high costs, and compatibility issues make things frustrating.

That’s why we built CrowmanCloud. We’ve been through these same struggles ourselves. As developers and cloud engineers, we saw many teams dealing with the same cloud deployment headaches. Most tools out there were either too complicated or required uploading private code to external servers.

CrowmanCloud is different. It runs completely on your own machine, so your code stays private. It gives you powerful code analysis just like big enterprise tools but in a simple, developer-friendly way. We’re not a typical cloud service. We’re a local-first tool that helps you get cloud-ready without compromising your privacy.
