Contractual Liabilities Insurance
Covers service-credit obligations in reserved-instance agreements and other compute-delivery SLAs. Lets providers offer stronger uptime guarantees without putting their balance sheet on the line.
What we're solving.
Reserved-instance and long-term compute contracts include service-level commitments — uptime, delivered performance, latency, capacity. Breaching those commitments triggers service-credit obligations that sit directly on the provider's balance sheet. That exposure depresses margins, complicates audit, and limits what providers are willing to guarantee commercially.
How it works.
An insurance policy that covers a GPU cloud's contractual liabilities arising from defined service-level breaches. The policy sits behind the provider's customer contracts: when a covered event triggers service credits or penalty payments, the insurer indemnifies.
Providers can offer stronger guarantees commercially, while transferring the volatility of performance risk to the insurance market.
Built for these counterparties.
- GPU clouds offering enterprise-grade SLAs
- Data center operators with customer-facing performance obligations
- Managed-service providers reselling compute with layered SLAs
