Overview

Cleo Integration Cloud (CIC) is a cloud-based platform built around the concept of "ecosystem integration" — bringing EDI, API and non-EDI B2B data flows together so businesses can connect trading partners, applications and e-commerce channels in one place. It is targeted at supply-chain-intensive industries such as manufacturing, distribution, logistics and wholesale, where document automation across many partners directly affects revenue and fulfillment.

The platform provides no-code onboarding, AI-assisted mapping and orchestration of EDI and API transactions directly into ERP, TMS and WMS systems. It supports secure protocols including HTTPS, FTPS, SFTP, AS2 and email, and offers a pre-defined network of business connections to accelerate partner onboarding. A distinctive aspect of Cleo's model is flexibility of delivery: customers can run integrations self-service, use Cleo's managed services, or blend the two.

Cleo (Cleo Communications) is a privately held company founded in 1976, headquartered in Rockford, Illinois, with offices in Chicago, Pennsylvania, London and Bangalore, and roughly 400 employees serving more than 4,000 direct customers.

Cleo Integration Cloud is quoted rather than published, and targets mid-market and enterprise buyers explicitly on the promise of predictable pricing without per-document surprises — a direct response to the per-transaction model that makes traditional EDI costs hard to forecast. Pricing is driven by the number of integrations and trading partners rather than document volume. Against the category norm of $500 to $3,000 a month plus per-partner fees, the value case rests on that predictability. Get an independent shortlist with pricing guidance below.
