New tool speeds ability to purchase and deploy AI infrastructure with greater market efficiency

Compute Exchange, the world’s first open marketplace for AI infrastructure, today announced the launch of its Pricing Intelligence Calculator (PIC)—a first-of-its-kind tool that delivers real-time, historical, and forecasted GPU compute pricing data across the global market. The tool makes it easy to compare GPU hardware, discover vendors, and reserve resources through an open, market-based approach that shows the actual prices at which compute deals are being closed.

President Trump’s AI Action Plan for America outlined how improved market transparency is essential to rapid AI adoption and broader access to AI infrastructure. In the same way that commodities have traditionally been managed through spot and forward markets, the Compute Exchange PIC provides market-efficient access to GPUs and AI compute resources with market-based transparency, a choice of vendors, and flexible commitment terms ranging from hours to year-long bookings.

Since its debut in January, Compute Exchange has already facilitated over $2 billion in compute supply, making it the fastest-growing & only neutral market for AI compute in the world, while reinforcing its mission to expand American AI leadership with innovation, access, and open-market principles.

“We built PIC to empower startups, enterprises, and researchers with transparent access to market-rate compute resources,” said Simeon Bochev, Co-Founder & CEO of Compute Exchange. “By unlocking price visibility and eliminating opaque pricing, we're accelerating AI adoption to support the President’s vision of expanding American AI innovation to everyone.”

A Strategic Engine for American AI Leadership

PIC leverages Silicon Data, the #1 trusted source for compute market intelligence, and is available to the public for free—no login required—on Compute Exchange’s homepage. PIC offers:

• Live price benchmarks across hyperscalers, neoclouds, and independent providers
• Customizable configurations, from single-GPU requests to 2,048+ B200 clusters
• Service Level Agreements and availability matching to workload needs

PIC helps dismantle long-standing pricing opacity and gives everyone, including American startups and researchers, the tools to compete globally—just as the AI Action Plan envisions.

What’s Next: Forecasting, Visualizations, and Developer Tools

Over the coming months, Compute Exchange will extend PIC’s capabilities to include:

• Forward-looking pricing trends to support reliable budget forecasting
• Interactive visualizations to help guide planning and procurement
• Developer access for programmatic integration into R&D, DevOps, and procurement workflows

About Compute Exchange

Compute Exchange is the world's first and only exchange that efficiently connects compute buyers with sellers through a robust (over 80k GPUs in supply), transparent, and fair platform. The platform eliminates the opacity of traditional cloud markets by matching AI teams' and developers' specific workload needs with pre-vetted compute providers. Sellers monetize idle compute capacity while gaining access to a large buyer pool. Buyers access enterprise-grade compute (including H100s, H200s, B200s, GB200s, etc.) at great pricing with expert guidance, streamlined procurement, and the ability to sell back unused capacity, removing the long-term contracting barrier. Founded in Palo Alto by veterans from Apple, OpenAI, Lambda Labs, Oracle, and Coinbase, Compute Exchange delivers what the industry needs most: transparency, simplicity, and a world-class experience.
