The public cloud market is opaque to suppliers and investors. It lacks transparency due to cloud providers’ intense desire to keep competitive trade secrets. Outdated survey-based data gathering methods are ineffective at providing insight. This means suppliers and investors aren’t aware of new deployments of instance types nor their locations. This significantly impacts their investment decisions.
Liftr Insights creates transparency through a unique approach. We use DevOps to enumerate internet-attached infrastructure and provide Market Intelligence as a Platform for technology investors and public cloud stakeholders.

Liftr Insights’ Market Intelligence as a Platform is the software platform and methodology that drives our data collection and analysis. We gather intelligence about deployed internet-attached infrastructure from publicly available data using DevOps software. Our platform gives investors an advantage on their investments rather than relying on traditional data providers that are survey-based.
DevOps-Driven – We don’t do surveys. Liftr feeds models with its detailed, accurate quant via publicly available data and software automation, not with opinion and estimation.
Unique Offering – We are the first of our kind. Being the first to measure deployed services to the cloud, rather than supply chain output, makes Liftr Insights different.
Reliable Skillset – Our automated data collection and well-documented processes enable a repeatable, auditable methodology that improves over time. Our data is easy to consume and available in multiple formats.
