Problem
European startups often struggle with cloud infrastructure that is either too expensive, complex, or lacking in transparency, especially when compared to global hyperscalers. High data egress fees, vendor lock-in, and unpredictable pricing create significant financial and operational burdens, while strict data protection regulations like GDPR add further compliance challenges.
Solution
redu.cloud provides a straightforward, cost-effective cloud platform offering a full stack of infrastructure primitives—including virtual machines, managed PostgreSQL and Redis databases, autoscaling clusters, load balancers, private networks, and block storage—all billed by the hour with no minimum commitments. The platform is designed for agent-driven operations, featuring a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that allows AI coding tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor to provision, deploy, and manage entire project stacks directly from a user's own account and quota. Users can point an agent at a project, review a generated plan, approve it, and the agent will deploy the infrastructure, run it in EU data centers, and provide a live URL, with all actions visible and reversible. redu.cloud also includes a deploy library of open-source app recipes, transparent pricing with £200 free credits, and free DevOps assistance to support startups from initial testing to production.
Target Audience
Primary customers are European startups, small businesses, and developers who need affordable, scalable, and GDPR-compliant cloud infrastructure without the complexity or cost of hyperscalers. The platform also serves AI-native development teams seeking agent-driven infrastructure management.
