CloudMade (cloudmade.com) formerly provided a platform for software developers to build geo-enabled applications. CloudMade made extensive use of OpenStreetMap data to provide mapping services.
CloudMade was founded in 2007 by OSM founder Steve Coast and long-term OSM contributor, Nick Black. Nick remains with CloudMade. There is more information on key staff below.
In January 2011 the company OneStepAhead was acquired as 'CloudMade Deutschland GmbH' [1]. However CloudMade Deutschland GmbH seems to be shutdown as the Android App Navdroyd has not been updated since mid-2012.
By 2015, CloudMade had pivoted twice, first to focus on location-based in-game advertising ("Zigi") and more recently to the "connected car" market. Most of its original OpenStreetMap products are no longer available, though an Enterprise tile-serving plan remains available.(Source : Wikipedia)
