Cloudsmith was founded in 2016 with a mission to solve problems of scale and complexity for software organizations through Cloud-native Artifact Management, providing easy end-to-end visibility and control of assets, data, and dependencies from source to delivery. The company aimed to elevate the use of Artifact Management beyond its traditional meaning of "making a package" to a holistic process called Continuous Packaging (CP), which bridges the gap between CI/CD pipelines. To achieve this vision, Cloudsmith had to overcome significant challenges, including scaling the business, finding product/market fit, and optimizing pricing. The company has undergone multiple iterations of fundraising, product evolution, and pricing adjustments to align with its target market and mission. With a focus on delivering value to customers, Cloudsmith is now poised to continue growing and solving problems in the Software Supply Chain.
