Risk Transfer isn't possible
without reliable and transparent data.
Forward Compute collects data from various public and private sources. We are aggregating those sources under one umbrella: our compute intelligence dashboard — which is fully open-source for the benefit of builders in the space.
Eight datasets. One open source of truth for AI compute.
Every dataset on the dashboard, from the global data-centre map to settlement-grade price references. Updated continuously. Sourced from primary references. Open to anyone building, financing, or underwriting compute.
Map
LiveEvery announced and operating AI data centre, mapped worldwide from press release to power-on.
A geographic view of the global AI infrastructure economy. Filter by status, region, operator, or power source. Click any marker for the underlying project record and source citations.
Provider Profiles
LiveA standardised reference for every GPU cloud operator: capacity, locations, and how they go to market.
The same fact base for every operator, from hyperscaler regions to single-site neoclouds. Comparable across capacity, contracting model, financing structure, and operational track record.
Buildout Tracker
LiveProject-by-project view of every data centre under construction, with supporting evidence at each stage.
Every announced, permitted, under-construction, and operational AI capacity project, with status confirmed by primary sources — interconnection queue filings, planning consents, and provider disclosures.
GPU Inventory
LiveThe installed base of AI accelerators, broken down by SKU, generation, and operator.
The supply-side counterpart to pricing. Estimates of total deployed units across H100, H200, B200, MI300, and TPU classes, with full methodology and source-by-source confidence ranges.
Capacity Analytics
In devAggregate analytics on the AI infrastructure economy: utilisation, supply–demand balance, and energy intensity.
Derived metrics that combine the rest of the dashboard into a system-level view. The substantive layer for analysts thinking about systemic risk, regional concentration, and reserve margins.
Pricing Intelligence
LiveAggregate analytics on GPU rental pricing, by hardware class, provider, and contract length.
Live and reported transaction prices across spot, reserved, and contract markets. Normalised across configurations so cross-provider comparison is meaningful.
Price Index
In devHistorical price evolution for GPU-hour benchmarks, with methodology and downloadable series.
Settlement-grade price references for insurance and derivative contracts. Full historical series, governance disclosure, and IOSCO-aligned methodology. We will publish methodology before the data goes live.
Changelog and Updates
LiveEvery dataset refresh, methodology change, and new provider added — in one feed.
One signal for everything that changes on the dashboard. Available as email, RSS, Atom, or JSON Feed.
Open data for the AI compute economy.
The dashboard is fully open-source. Use it as your fact base for procurement, financing, underwriting, or research.
