Compute is the new energy bill. Fix your rate.
Lock what you pay per GPU-hour for 1–6 months. Keep your current cloud. If prices rise, we pay you the difference every month.

How it works
Like a fixed-rate energy plan, for GPUs.- 01
Pick your price
Choose hours per month and 1–6 months. You take the best open provider offer, quoted next to the live index.

Sign in, add a deposit
Continue with Google or a Solana wallet. Your refundable deposit is your maximum loss (the 30% cap), held in a public on-chain escrow. On devnet, top up with the mock-USDC faucet.

We settle monthly
Keep paying your provider as usual. Index above your price: you receive the gap. Below: you pay the gap. Net, you pay your locked price.
GPU providers who want the opposite.
Neoclouds and independent node operators worry about prices falling as new chips ship. They lock a revenue floor; you lock a cost ceiling. Same number, opposite needs.

Trust, and the honest risks
A lock trades upside for certainty. Here’s exactly what that means.Fully collateralised
Both sides deposit their full maximum loss before a lock starts. Payouts come from that escrow, never from our balance sheet. No margin calls.
A public number
The index is the median of at least three signed provider attestations, published on chain. If it goes stale for 45 minutes, new locks pause automatically.
If prices fall, you pay
Your all-in price stays at your locked rate, so a falling market means you pay the gap from your deposit, up to the 30% cap. That’s the cost of certainty.
Unaudited devnet demo
This is a hackathon build on Solana devnet with mock USDC and demo providers. The program is open source and not audited. Smart-contract risk is never zero.
FAQ
Do I need to switch cloud provider?
No. You keep buying GPUs wherever you do today. ComputeLock only pays out, or collects, the difference between the index and your locked price.
What if my provider charges more than the index?
The lock settles against the public H100 index, not your invoice. If your provider moves with the market, the settlement offsets the change; any premium you pay over the index stays yours.
Do I need crypto or a wallet?
Sign in with Google and an embedded Solana wallet is created for you. Wallet users can connect any Solana wallet. This is a devnet demo: deposits use mock USDC from the faucet.
What is USDC and why is my deposit in it?
USDC is a dollar-pegged stablecoin. Deposits sit in an on-chain escrow so payouts never depend on our balance sheet. On devnet you get mock USDC from the faucet; card and bank deposits are not part of this demo.
Can I end a lock early?
Not in v1. A lock runs for its full term and settles once per period; your deposit, plus or minus settlements, is paid out when it ends.
How is this taxed and accounted for?
Locks are cash-settled agreements. Talk to your accountant; this demo is not tax or investment advice.
