    AI for Building Design, Planning, and Permitting2025 · spacial.io · ▲16

    Saw Spacial recently — it's an AI tool that helps figure out what can be built on a piece of land, based on local zoning rules.

  • Computable GPU Index (CGI)▲426

    Hey we are Computable. We spent years building trading infrastructure at Jump Trading and Coinbase. From that point of view, compute looks like energy markets before 2000: everything trades through private bilateral leases, there’s no visible price, and nothing can be resold. The same H100 rents at a 2x spread depending on who’s asking, and once you sign a 24-month lease, it can never change hands. So we built a market for GPU nodes, sold by the calendar week. Here are three things you can do on it that you can’t do anywhere else: - Buy exactly the weeks you need. Three nodes for the last…
