Upbound runs, scales, and optimizes its clients' services across multiple public and private cloud environments. Its product offerings are available via a subscription model that currently has two tiers. The first is a free tier catering to individuals getting started with control planes and who need tooling to debug and share their Crossplane providers and configurations. It includes full access to Universal Crossplane (UXP), the ability to publish public listings in Upbound Registry, and limited access to Upbound Cloud. The company was founded in 2017 and is headquartered in Seattle, Washington.

Upbound's mission is to enable organizations to build, deploy, and manage their applications across multiple cloud environments with ease. By providing a cloud-native platform that simplifies the complexity of managing distributed systems, Upbound empowers businesses to focus on innovation and growth, rather than infrastructure management. With Upbound, companies can achieve true cloud portability and flexibility, unlocking the full potential of the cloud.
