The Problem

What we're solving.

The supply side wants to sell forward revenue to secure its CAPEX cycle; the buy side wants guaranteed access to specific infrastructure at a known price. Reserved-instance contracts solve some of this, but they lock the buyer in for years, include punitive egress fees, and cannot be reassigned if the roadmap changes.

The Product

How it works.

A commercial agreement between a GPU supplier and a compute buyer for delivery of a defined volume of compute at a defined future date, at a fixed price. Assignable to third parties. No egress fees. No multi-year lock-up.

Gives the buyer flexibility and the seller revenue certainty. Fits existing procurement and cloud-commitment workflows - with the fungibility of a traded instrument.
