Hey HN! We’re Thomas and Andrew, and we just built a Dutch auction exchange for cloud H100 rentals. It’s live at https://www.H100cloud.com. Auctions traditionally start at a base price and work their way up. That doesn’t work for cloud computing — would you ever want to be outbid and lose your data? Our Dutch auction model starts at a ceiling — $3.50/hr per H100. We lower prices every six hours until servers are picked up by buyers. We stop lowering them when prices reach a $2.20 floor. When you rent a server, the price is locked until you delete the server. You’ll never get…

Hey folks! We're Alex and Evan, and we're working on putting together a 512 H100 compute cluster for startups and researchers to train large generative models on. - it runs at the lowest possible margins (<$2.00/hr per H100) - designed for bursty training runs, so you can take say 128 H100s for a week - you don’t need to commit to multiple years of compute or pay for a year upfront Big labs like OpenAI and Deepmind have big clusters that support this kind of bursty allocation for their researchers, but startups so far have had to get very small clusters on very long term contracts, wait…

Hi HN, I built this side project earlier this week. It executes an English auction on Solana with a reserve price of 0.1 SOL. Auction winner gets control of a Codex editor. Auction losers get refunded (minus a <$0.01 processing fee). The Codex agent operates in a sandbox and can only output HTML/JS/CSS. The project is open-source: https://github.com/neelsomani/the-daily-auction

I created https://www.howmuchrent.com last Friday to help bring this kind of transparency to Ireland, allowing people to submit their rents. Would love to get any HN feedback on the idea/website.

Dear startups, We've recently launched our service that helps deploy capacity across AWS EC2 spot to provide high availability and up to 90% discount on compute. Magic happens by us predicting spot prices and distributing capacity across dozens of uncorrelated Spot auctions to limit exposure to possible price spikes. As serial entrepreneurs we know first hand how important it is to iterate quickly and reducing the compute cost is one of the ways to approach it. If your company's AWS bill is significant (>$10k/month) and you have an interesting use case that we can discuss - we'd be…

Hey HN: Kaveh here, the founder of https://www.usage.ai/ We help companies drive down AWS EC2 spend by buying and selling 3-year no-upfront reserved instances. Why? Because there's almost no liquidity on the AWS EC2 RI Marketplace and it can take a while, if at all, to sell an RI if you need to stop using one. Previous to founding Usage, I worked at JPMorgan Chase as a summer analyst. Here's how it works: We are typically brought in by a DevOps manager to cut AWS EC2 costs. The app is entirely self-service and the savings are generated automatically, typically we do this live…

Hi HN community, My name is Kaveh, I'm the founder and CEO of www.usage.ai I launched on HN last year with the first version of Usage AI, we used Standard RIs and the RI marketplace to give customers the ability to buy 3-year no-upfront RIs which yielded 57% savings with none of the commitment. In conjunction with AWS, we have since moved to using Convertible Reserved Instances which are the most misunderstood but powerful savings instrument on AWS. As long as you have servers in any of the popular AWS regions, you can achieve up to 50% savings with no code change and the flexibility to…
