Compute Exchange operates a decentralized marketplace for trading compute resources, primarily GPUs, tailored for AI and machine learning workloads. Providers list idle hardware, while buyers access capacity on-demand through spot or futures contracts settled via blockchain for transparency and security. The platform supports flexible pricing models to match supply and demand dynamically. Customers range from independent AI developers and researchers to startups and enterprises scaling ML training and inference. It targets the growing demand for cost-effective compute amid GPU shortages. The company raised seed funding from investors including Variant Fund and has partnerships with compute providers. Founded in 2023 by Carmen Li, formerly at Hudson River Trading.
