Where It All Began
Todd’s journey started decades ago, building some of the world’s largest online networks before most people had even heard of “the cloud”. After moving to Wales in 1996, Todd saw an opportunity: bring enterprise-grade tools to small businesses without the complexity or cost.
Our Mission
- Empower local businesses to outperform larger competitors.
- Democratise technology by making advanced tools accessible and understandable.
- Reinvest in communities, ensuring profit serves the mission—not the other way around.
CloudPlanet’s mission is to empower local businesses to outperform larger competitors by making advanced technology accessible, understandable, and affordable. We believe that technology should serve people, not the other way around, and we are committed to democratising digital tools so that every business can thrive independently.
By reinvesting in our communities and ensuring that profit serves our purpose, we strive to build a future where kindness, fairness, and innovation are at the heart of every decision.
Our Ethos In Action
At CloudPlanet, kindness isn’t a buzzword—it’s an operating system. From our Butler Principle (make it easy on the next person) to our North Star Charter (governance rooted in fairness), every decision reflects our commitment to people over profit.
What Makes Us Different
CloudPlanet stands out through its commitment to efficiency, integration, and future-readiness. Our unique AI-powered methodologies allow us to achieve in a single hour what once required a team, all without causing downtime for our clients. We design integrated technology solutions that simply work, tailoring each stack to the specific needs of every business we support. Looking ahead, we’re dedicated to adopting AI and upholding ethical governance, ensuring that our systems are built to last and always serve the best interests of our clients and communities.
Our Culture & Ownership
At CloudPlanet, our culture is built on the principle that kindness and fairness are not just ideals—they’re operational standards. We believe in “making it easy on the next person,” whether that’s a client, a colleague, or a community partner. This philosophy is reflected in our Butler Principle and runs through every aspect of our work. We’re proud to be developing an employee-owned structure, where every Planeteer has a genuine stake in the company’s success and a voice in its direction. By capping executive salaries and ensuring fair pay for all, we’re redefining what it means to be a modern business—one where profit is a tool for positive change, not the sole objective. Our commitment to transparency, democratic organisation, and reinvesting in our communities sets us apart and ensures that CloudPlanet remains a place where people come first.
Why Wales
Wales is more than just our home—it’s the heart of our mission. The country’s rich history of innovation, resilience, and community spirit inspires everything we do. Wales offers a unique opportunity to trial democratically-led corporate structures and values-driven business models, making it the perfect environment for CloudPlanet’s vision. By rooting ourselves in Wales, we’re able to support local businesses with global ambitions, helping them harness the power of technology while staying true to their cultural identity. We see Wales as a testbed for new ideas in ethical business, AI adoption, and community empowerment, and we’re proud to contribute to its ongoing story of progress and possibility.
