We’re helping companies train AI at the absolutely lowest cost—enabling you to save and train more.

50% cheaper training for 10% longer training runs

AI model training can be interrupted. We use that to our advantage to save you money with our predictable spot instances.

Predicable interruptions

Energy is expensive at peak hours

Because of this, we predictably pause our workloads for 10% of the day. With a slight increase in training time, we’re able to offer a cost of compute that other GPU clouds can’t compete with. We get paid by utilities to turn off during peak times, when the grid is dirtiest, and pass those savings to you.

FAQs

How is Build AI different from Lambda, Coreweave, and Crusoe?

We only focus on optimizing our infrastructure for training and fine-tuning machine learning models, not inference. Competitors like CoreWeave, Lambda, and Crusoe require millions of dollars worth of backup power generation infrastructure to locate their data centers with remote oil fields and wind farms. We're able to shut down and place our data centers closer to the existing power infrastructure to optimize energy consumption and price.

I’m not sure about my training hardware needs?

If you spend upwards of $10k per month on pre-training or fine-tuning, we can help. Spend less than that? We'd love to help you scale up your training workloads.

What libraries are installed on the BuildAI cluster?

All nodes in the cluster have CUDA and Python 3 installed. You can manage your training environment and install additional python packages as shown in our documentation.

Where can I store my data for training?

We will assign you a bucket for data storage in our secure data solution. This bucket uses the same API as Amazon S3. See our documentation for more information.

How much time do you expect to turn off servers over a day/month/year?

We shut down during daily set time blocks (e.g. 5-8pm “shoulder period” when solar supply goes offline and demand jumps as people come home from work). We work with customers on checkpointing / saving their models ahead of these periods, so we can resume training, without replicating any work, when energy prices fall.

Over time, we will progress to a more dynamic AI-enabled model where we can take advantage of turning off our servers throughout high-cost periods within a day. Customers who would prefer speed>cost can pay a premium to keep their training workloads running during these periods.

Why would I want to train my models more slowly?

To get a much better price! By making a 5–10% sacrifice on training speed, massive energy savings can be unlocked by not operating during high energy priced periods. You can use this trade off to conserve runway, train larger/more models, and to ultimately do it in a way that’s better for the planet.

How exactly do you plan to reduce cost so much?

We lower buildout cost by rapidly deploying our modular systems, and requiring less redundancy because workloads can be paused. For lowering ongoing cost, we use remote low cost renewable energy, shut down or raise prices to offset spiking power costs, & run our modular data centers remotely & autonomously.
