GPU Providers & Data Centers

GPU Providers & Data Centers

Anchor your pricing strategy to market expectations. Benchmark rental rates against the term structure, identify contango or backwardation regimes, and structure long-term contracts with market-calibrated confidence.

AI Companies & Compute Buyers

AI Companies & Compute Buyers

Time your procurement. Compare locked-in term rates against forward expectations to decide when to commit, when to wait, and when to negotiate. Validate every broker quote against the curve.

Financial Institutions & Risk

Financial Institutions & Risk

The no-arbitrage forward rate is your settlement reference. Price swaps, build structured products, underwrite GPU-collateralized loans, and design parametric insurance — all anchored to a published, methodology-backed forward curve.

METHODOLOGY & DATA SCHEMA

How the Forward Curve Is Built

How the Forward Curve Is Built

How the Forward Curve Is Built

Real Market Data Collection

We collect actual GPU rental transaction data and published rates across 95% of Neo-Cloud providers and 100% of major hyperscalers.

Term Structure Construction

Rental rates are organized by term length (1-month through 36-month) to build the term structure (the blue line).

No-Arbitrage Forward Derivation

The forward rate (orange line) is mathematically derived from the term structure using established no-arbitrage pricing methodology.

Daily Publication

Both curves are recalculated every business day and distributed via Bloomberg Terminal (SDH100RT), direct API, and the Silicon Data portal.
