Bitcasa, Inc. was an American cloud storage company founded in 2011 in St. Louis, Missouri.[1] The company was later based in Mountain View, California until it shut down in 2017.[2]
Bitcasa provided client software for Microsoft Windows, OS X, Android and web browsers. An iOS client was pending Apple approval.[3] Its former product, Infinite Drive, once provided centralized storage that included unlimited capacity, client-side encryption, media streaming, file versioning and backups, and multi-platform mobile access.[4] In 2013 Bitcasa moved to a tiered storage model, offering from 1TB for $99/year up to Infinite for $999/year.[5] In October 2014, Bitcasa announced the discontinuation of Infinite Drive; for $999/year, users would get 10TB of storage.[6] Infinite Drive users would be required to migrate to one of the new pricing plans or delete their account.[6] In May 2016, Bitcasa discontinued offering cloud storage for consumers, alleging that they will be focusing on their business products.
