Computable - Buy, sell, and redeem GPU hours by the week
Show HN: Computable – Buy, sell, and redeem GPU for the exact weeks you want
Computable revolutionizes GPU access by allowing users to buy, sell, and redeem compute hours for exact calendar weeks at wholesale prices. Unlike traditional rental marketplaces that charge premiums for flexibility, Computable offers instant liquidity, enabling users to sell back unused capacity immediately. Backed by founders from Jump Trading and Coinbase and supported by Y Combinator, the platform features a unique sealed-bid auction system for future dates. Whether you need to lock in rates for January in July or pay only for the specific weeks of a project, Computable ensures you never overpay for idle resources.
Rental marketplaces charge extra for that flexibility, but our hours come at wholesale with the freedom to sell what you don't use.

Didn't sfcompute launch with a vision of something like this and then cancel it because CFTC decided it was running an unregulated futures exchange? How are you getting around regulatory issues like this?

All the verifications without being able to see what it even does fully feels like pretty a big barrier, even more so than being login gated. Gives it a big banking/gambling vibe too.
Then again, I was only curious how it compares to other GPU rent options in general. Somebody going to bid on something right away might not care.

Interesting approach. How do you ensure liquidity if buyers and sellers want different weeks? Is there a market maker, or is everything matched through the auction?
