Better Compute

An embeddable control plane for GPU, CPU, and bare-metal capacity

Better Compute is an embeddable control plane for GPU, CPU, and bare-metal capacity. It tracks what hardware exists, what is free, and who holds it — and the database referees every booking, so double-booking is impossible by construction.

It also makes machines useful: adopt a running server, deploy an image over PXE, run a VPS or a sandbox on your own hosts or a provider's, and hand capacity to customer tenants with their own networks and firewall rules. Better IAM handles identity, authorization, and billing.
