HYCU

HYCU is an AI-powered data resilience and data protection platform that backs up, protects, and recovers more than 100 workloads across on-premises, public cloud, and SaaS environments. Its R-Cloud platform is delivered as a low-code data protection development platform that lets SaaS and AI application providers rapidly build and publish backup-and-recovery services to the R-Cloud Marketplace, alongside R-Shield for ransomware threat prevention and recoverability validation and aiR for querying backup data as an intelligence source. HYCU serves 4,800+ organizations across 78 countries and is recognized as a Leader by IDC and Gartner. This profile was surfaced as a portfolio company of Bain Capital Ventures and enriched by the API Evangelist pipeline; HYCU exposes a low-code developer platform rather than a public REST API.

HYCU is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Ai Infrastructure, Data Protection, Backup, and Disaster Recovery.

HYCU’s developer surface includes documentation, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 10 more developer resources.
