At CloudMade we're working on a range of tools designed to help developers build the next generation of mapping applications.

We want to expose you to a world of rich map data through a comprehensive set of APIs and services. We see our tools as the building blocks for bigger and better things that will be built by you, so we've started with the basics - two APIs that let you show maps on mobile devices or in a desktop browser.

This is just the beginning and there are lots more things to come from CloudMade. If you would like to take part in our developer's pre-Alpha testing program, please sign up.
