The Cloudmap
The Cloudmap
The AR.IO mainnet launch laid the foundation for global access to the permanent cloud. The Cloudmap is a forward-looking view that builds on that foundation, defined by several key themes: Adoption & Accessibility, Developer Empowerment, Infrastructure Expansion, Economic Engine, and Network Autonomy.
Adoption & Accessibility
Developer Empowerment
Infrastructure Expansion
Economic Engine
Network Autonomy
Adoption & Accessibility
Goal
Make it easy for anyone—no matter their background or technical knowledge—to use and benefit from the AR.IO Network.
Value
This theme focuses on removing the friction that holds people back from joining the decentralized web. Whether it’s letting users pay with credit cards, launching token incentives, or forming big partnerships, everything here is about opening the doors wider.
Ties to Vision
If we want the permanent cloud to replace traditional platforms like AWS or GoDaddy, it has to be just as easy to use—but without the centralization. Accessibility is how we bring the next million users into a world where apps and data don’t disappear.

Why?
The Cloudmap exists to keep our direction towards the overall vision visible and our momentum aligned. It is not a list of promises - it is a shared signal of where we're going and why it matters. You can expect:
Iterative delivery
We will ship iteratively, prioritizing progress over perfection.
