Piccolo personal cloud device resting on a hand

Your personal cloud. Without the cloud.

Piccolo is a palm-sized personal server that gives you global access to your files, total privacy, and the freedom to own your digital life.

In other words, it's "Effortless control for the mindful. A playground for the tinkerer."

Why Piccolo?

Tired of big tech owning your data? Cloud storage is convenient—but it comes at the cost of privacy and control. DIY servers are private—but they're complicated and fragile.

Piccolo gives you the best of both worlds:

  • Easy to set up and use
  • Access your data from anywhere
  • 1TB storage, expandable to 10TB
  • Cloud-grade reliability, without the cloud
  • No per-GB subscriptions, just a nominal global-access fee
  • You own your data. No surveillance

How It Works

Your data, always at your fingertips.

  • Global Access: Reach your files from anywhere.
  • Mobile App: Setup and manage without sysadmin skills.
  • Expandable Hardware: Start small, scale as you grow.
  • Distributed Erasure Coding: Cloud-level redundancy. No single point of failure.

Built for the Duo

For the mindful: A safe, quiet place where your digital life just works. Your photos, memories, and documents—always private, always accessible.

For the tinkerer: A personal playground where you can build, break, and rebuild. Run your own websites. Host your own AI. Experiment with ML models that run 24/7—right from your desk. Total freedom, zero gatekeepers.

Fun fact: This website is running on a Piccolo :)
