Hone Foundation
The cloud platform behind your product
Foundation is the multi-tenant, audit-ready infrastructure beneath our own instruments, built for hardware reporting from the field. Product companies use it so the cloud layer is done on the day the first unit ships. It carries your brand, not ours.
Infrastructure we already trust with our own product
Foundation is the tenancy, data and account layer running beneath Hone's own deployed instruments and the audited data they produce. Standing your product on it means starting from infrastructure that is in production today, maintained by us, and proving its isolation model to auditors.
The cloud layer is not what wins a customer. It is very often what delays the launch.
What Foundation provides
Six things a connected product needs before anyone can log in.
Tenancy and isolation
Every one of your customers gets a physically separate database, provisioned by a single command, so you can show an auditor exactly where each customer’s data lives.
Your brand, not ours
Your name, your colours, your domain, throughout. Nothing your customers see points back to us.
Accounts and access control
Authentication, user management, roles and per-tenant permissions. The groundwork every connected product needs before anyone can log in.
Device and data pipeline
Ingest from fleets of connected products, store it against the right tenant, and serve it back through an API your application talks to.
Dashboards and export
Results in front of your customers, and out into the systems they already use.
We run it and keep it patched
We run the infrastructure, apply the updates and keep the security patching current for as long as your product is on it.
How it works
You build the product. We run the platform.
Foundation is provided under a licence scoped to your deployment. Keeping the infrastructure running is part of that licence, not a support contract you negotiate later.
You keep the product, every customer relationship, all the data and the IP. Data is hosted in Sydney and stays in Australia. If you ever want to move, there is a 30-day export and a supported migration.
Scope
We map your product, your data, and the tenancy model your customers need.
Provision and brand
Your environment stands up on Foundation, wearing your brand from day one.
Integrate
Your product and your application talk to Foundation through its API. We work alongside your team.
Run
Your customers use your product. We keep the infrastructure running, patched and current.
Who Foundation is for
Connected-product companies
You have hardware in the field and no cloud platform behind it, or one you have outgrown.
Products that must prove isolation
Audited or regulated data, where "our customers’ records are separated" has to survive a real audit.
Teams with a deadline
You would rather spend the next year on the part of the product your customers are buying.
Foundation pairs naturally with our engineering and design-for-manufacture work, so the hardware and the platform behind it come from the same team. Talk to us about your product →
