Founding cohort
Through August 2026
Founding-customer benefits — early access to the launch cohort, locked early-adopter pricing, and a direct line to engineering.
Pre-launch · Launching mid-2026
Climate positive cloud infrastructure
The world's first cloud network architected to be carbon‑negative. Australian sovereign IaaS that offsets more CO2 than it consumes — solar-primary, distributed-by-design, and engineered for lower draw per unit of compute.
- Carbon-negative architecture
- Australian sovereign by default
- Self-service, sub-90s provisioning

Built carbon-negative, not carbon-neutral
The order matters: reduction first, offsets second.
Most "green" providers buy their way to neutrality. Icarus inverts the order — architectural reduction first, verified offsets layered on top of an already low-emission base.
Solar-primary energy
Sized to feed rack load directly during daylight. Battery storage covers peak-shifting. Grid is the secondary source.
Distributed-by-design
Less embodied carbon per teraflop-hour because redundancy is shared across sites, not stacked into one building.
Verified offset stack
Sized to take the network past zero into negative territory by a defended margin. Methodology certified by a third party.
Four pillars, one product
Infrastructure-as-a-Service, built for Australian business.
Carbon-negative footprint. N+N redundancy. Hidden facilities. Self-service speed. The four pillars apply to every account, every VM.
Pillar 01
Carbon-negative footprint
Architectural reduction plus a verified offset stack — net-negative emissions on the customer's ESG balance sheet, methodology published on every climate claim.
Pillar 02
N+N redundancy
Fault-tolerant by design at every layer — power, network, hypervisor, cooling. Automated failover. No single domain takes the network with it.
Pillar 03
Hidden facilities
Physical security at the level required by government and regulated workloads. Locations are not public — by design.
Pillar 04
Self-service speed
Create an account, configure a VM, deploy. Production VMs in under 90 seconds. No procurement bottleneck. No contract negotiation.
The Australian footprint
Seven points of presence, one sovereign network.
Sydney AZ-1 launches first. Sydney AZ-2, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane, Adelaide, Canberra and Darwin follow on a phased build — distributed-by-design from day one, not retrofitted as the network grows.
Sovereignty is the default, not an upgrade. Every byte of customer data lives inside an Australian facility unless you explicitly elect otherwise — and at launch, no such election is offered.
One product. Unmanaged IaaS.
You bring the OS. We bring the rest — and the climate-negative outcome.
Self-service cloud servers, customer-managed end-to-end. Single transparent pricing — AUD, GST-inclusive, no lock-in. No co-location. No managed services. The constraint is deliberate: one product, done well, at launch.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
When does Icarus go live?
Mid-2026. Account creation is open now and queues into the launch cohort — provisioning unlocks the day the network goes live.
Why "carbon-negative", not "carbon-neutral"?
Because the architecture reduces emissions at the source — solar-primary, distributed-by-design — and verified offsets sit on top of an already low-emission base, taking the network past zero.
Where does the data sit?
Australia, by default. Sovereignty is the posture, not an upgrade. Cross-border replication is not offered at launch.
What product is at launch?
Unmanaged Infrastructure-as-a-Service. One product, single transparent pricing, self-service. No co-location, no managed services at launch.
