Nerdio (Nerdio, Inc., founded 2017, Chicago) builds automation and cost-optimization software for Microsoft cloud desktop environments — Azure Virtual Desktop, Windows 365, Intune and Microsoft 365. Its two products are Nerdio Manager for Enterprise (NME), an Azure-hosted management layer that IT departments deploy into their own Azure subscription to provision AVD host pools, manage desktop images, run scripted actions and drive auto-scale, and Nerdio Manager for MSP (NMM), a multi-tenant console managed service providers use to run hundreds of client environments. Both products expose a REST API that customers enable per install (OAuth2 client-credentials against Microsoft Entra ID, with Swagger and a downloadable Postman collection served from the install itself), and Nerdio additionally operates a public, internet-facing Distributor API used by NMM distributors to register, suspend, reactivate and cancel partner installs and to pull usage and invoice data. Nerdio publishes a first-party PowerShell module generated from the NME API specification with AutoRest.
