About Jispace Home Private Cloud

Beijing Zentraedi Intelligence Information Technology Co., Ltd., operating as Jispace (极空间), was established on July 15, 2019, to address the growing consumer demand for data storage and privacy. The company was founded by Yuan Bin, a seasoned technology executive. Before starting Jispace, Yuan Bin held significant roles at major Chinese tech firms, including serving as the technical product lead for the Olympics事業部 at Sohu, VP of Technology Products at iQiyi, and co-CTO at LeTV, providing him with a deep understanding of internet software and smart hardware integration. Identifying a market gap for user-friendly private cloud solutions, he aimed to create a product as accessible as a common household appliance.

Jispace specializes in providing private cloud solutions, which are a type of Network Attached Storage (NAS), for both individual/family users and small to medium-sized enterprises. The business model centers on the sale of these physical hardware devices, which act as low-power, miniature servers. These devices enable users to securely store, back up, and access data from various smart devices like phones, computers, and cameras. Revenue is generated directly from the sales of their diverse hardware lineup, which includes models like the Z series (Z2, Z4Pro), the portable T-series, and the enterprise-grade P8 device. The company has successfully raised significant capital to fund its growth, including a Series A round of nearly 100 million RMB in June 2022 and a B round of over 100 million RMB in October 2023, led by Anker Innovations.

The company's core offering is a combination of hardware and its proprietary ZOS operating system, designed for simplicity and ease of use, even for non-technical customers. The devices serve as a centralized hub for a family's digital life, functioning as a data management center and a private entertainment hub. Key features include automatic photo and file backup from multiple devices, AI-powered photo and video organization (including facial and object recognition), and the '极影视' (Ji Film and Television) function which creates an intelligent media library with automatically generated posters and information. The system supports remote access without complex network configuration, and users can stream high-definition content like 4K Blu-ray videos. For enterprise clients, Jispace offers the ZES (Zspace Enterprise Solution), providing advanced features such as user and permission management, enhanced security, and options for building a local AI computing platform.
