About Nextop

Summary

Nextop builds a mobile CDN that sits between iOS and Android apps and their backends. It provides a client-side networking library, a proxy network running a custom protocol, and connection monitoring tools. Mobile developers use it to cut delivery times, improve throughput, and reduce data and battery consumption, replacing ad-hoc network tuning and generic HTTP stacks.

Go-to-market

Mobile app developers integrate Nextop's client library directly into their iOS or Android projects, with the proxy network and metrics dashboard included as part of the service.
