Products & Services

Track 1

Pay-per-Use

$5–7 / GPU-hr

On-demand inference access. 20% cluster allocation. Flexible entry point via API Layer.

Track 2

Reserved Capacity

$3.5–4.5 / GPU-hr

1–3yr contracts for predictable workloads. 30% cluster. SLA-backed stability.

Track 3

Private AI Factory

$1.0M / month

Dedicated cluster for 1–2 global enterprise clients. 50% allocation. Full isolation.

API Layer

Standardised programmatic access to inference compute across all three tiers. NVIDIA Rubin Ultra architecture (GR200 NVL72) · InfiniBand NDR800 · ~10.4 ExaFLOPS (FP8)

Competitive Advantages

Zero Electricity Cost

Behind-the-meter JV with HPP owners eliminates the primary OPEX driver. OPEX $1M/yr vs industry norm of $8–12M/yr for equivalent capacity.

Natural Liquid Cooling

Mountain river water DLC. PUE < 1.10 — no mechanical cooling CAPEX, permanent thermal advantage over grid-connected competitors.

Georgia Virtual Zone Status

Significant tax advantages (15% rate) unavailable in competing jurisdictions. Structural fiscal moat alongside energy moat.

Inference-Only Focus

Stable flat power load eliminates need for expensive BESS systems required by training workloads. Simpler, cheaper, more reliable infrastructure.

Modular 1 MW Architecture + MOU Pipeline

Rapid replication across hydro sites with existing signed MOUs creates first-mover barrier no grid-dependent competitor can replicate regardless of capital.

Niche

Unique

Structural Asymmetry

Competitors compete on scale and capital.
1for.ai competes on energy architecture.

A 10 MW hydro contract at $0/kWh is worth more than the GPUs it runs — because GPUs can be upgraded, but power contracts cannot be replicated.
