01 / Purpose
Dedicated GPUs are sold by the year. Startups plan by the quarter.
Providers sell dedicated capacity on one to three year contracts with large minimums, and they ask for credit history a young startup does not have. We underwrite the startup on its venture backing and runway instead.
02 / Contracts
Many startups, one book.
Startups sign 6 to 12 month contracts and prepay part up front. Funders finance the hardware against a diversified set of those contracts, and startup payments go to the funder first once hosting and operations are covered.
03 / Operations
We service every contract.
Nodes run in professional data centers with uptime commitments. Valnce handles billing, monitoring and reporting, and nodes that free up are re-leased to the next startup in line.
