Hourly USD rental rates for the GPUs the AI economy runs on — measured across independent venues, aggregated and manipulation-resistant, then printed on-chain every ten minutes. Free to read, free to verify. No key.

Coverage counts ten-minute prints published against prints expected over the trailing day. A missing print is never interpolated: when the pipeline cannot compute an honest value, the slot stays empty. Settlement grade needs enough independent sources — below that, an index publishes for display only.
Each index observes public rental markets and reduces them to one number per tier, every ten minutes, under the following clauses. Parameters marked [param] are governed behind a timelock — 48 hours on this deployment, so a change is visible for two days before it is live.
Listed prices are drawn from each venue's public API.
Observations are reduced to a versioned hardware specification — for the flagship, H100 SXM 80 GB, on-demand, cluster-capable. Other form factors are scaled to that specification and compared in USD per GPU-hour.
Qualified observations from independent venues are combined into a single tier index. Many observations; one mark.
Each value is posted on-chain, where anyone can read the mark, its timestamp and its age. Settlement never reads a single print: it takes a 72-hour TWAP of the published series.
A tier that lacks sufficient independent coverage goes STALE — visibly, on-chain. It is never estimated or interpolated. A missing print means we did not have an honest number, and the record keeps the hole. Every other clause depends on this one.
Coverage and carry rules exist and are enforced per source, so one flaky
API cannot flap a whole tier STALE; what is never carried is the published number
itself. Per-tier status — including whether a tier clears the bar to settle a
contract — is published on this page and on /v1/indexes.

A venue is admitted when it publishes machine-readable pricing, survives the consensus band against the existing panel, and is independent of existing sources. One broker (Shadeform) is admitted, for supply no direct adapter reaches; every cloud we already poll ourselves is stripped from its rows before they enter the panel, so no operator is counted twice. Non-USD venues wait for FX normalization.

gaps preserved honestly.
