Storj is redefining the way the world computes, stores and shares data

Storj, founded in 2014 by Shawn Wilkinson, provides cloud object storage that claims to match major providers' security and performance at 90% lower cost and with reduced carbon emissions. The company, now led by CEO Colby Winegar, targets a market exceeding $1 billion and serves customers in backup, media workflows, AI, and scientific research.

The name has always been Storj, but there has always been lots of confusion around how to pronounce it. Some said Storage, some Storge, and some Storj-ay. Turns out customers liked Storj-ay the best so that’s how you say it. Then to now. Storj emerged in 2014 from Shawn Wilkinson's vision for a more affordable and secure cloud storage solution that bypassed AWS's high costs and security issues by using excess hard drive space. Fast-forward a decade later, and Storj excels in cloud object storage, offering security and performance on par with major providers but at 90% less cost and with dramatically lower carbon emissions. Storj customers are improving backup and recovery confidence, speeding up media workflows, innovating with AI, and making scientific breakthroughs that improve our world. Storj leadership.
