Space & power · Operator · Enterprise deploying its own kit
Power first. Everything after that is a detail.
Colocation, megawatts, density and cooling, matched against capacity that actually exists, on dates that actually hold. We do not own facilities, which is exactly why we can tell you which ones are wrong for you.
Send three numbers and we can be useful immediately: megawatts at day one, kilowatts per rack, and the date it has to be live. Above 40 kW per rack the shortlist of halls that can actually take you narrows fast, and we will say so rather than tour you through the rest.
You have hardware arriving on a date and nowhere confirmed to put it.
Your kW-per-rack figure quietly rules out most of the market, and the tours you have been on have not mentioned it.
Three sites gave you a ready-for-service date. You believe one of them.
The metro you named turned out to be interpreted generously.
You need direct-to-chip liquid now, or you will next generation, and the shortlist is completely different either way.
You are being shown a powered shell and a render, and being asked to treat it as capacity.
Power is the gating constraint in this market and it is not getting looser. Everything else, space, term, price, carrier mix, is downstream of whether the energy is there and contracted.
What we do
We qualify on the constraints that actually disqualify.
Within one hourAcknowledged, every enquiry, every time
You contract directWith the supplier, never through us
No cost to buyersCompensation comes from the supply side, disclosed
Global coverageSourced wherever the position actually fits
Qualifying
We qualify on what disqualifies.
Day-one megawatts and the scale ceiling. kW per rack. Air, direct-to-chip or immersion. Redundancy tier. The four or five facts that cut the list from thirty to three.
Reality check
We separate live capacity from pipeline.
Energised capacity, build-to-suit, powered shell and under-development are four products sold with the same vocabulary. We tell you which one you are being offered.
Connectivity
We match the whole requirement.
Carrier neutrality and who is on-net. Cross-connects. Cloud on-ramps. Dark fibre and subsea adjacency. Metro precision, not a region label.
Structure
We tell you where term buys access.
In constrained markets, contract length is often what gets you in the door. We show you where flexing the term opens capacity that price alone will not.
What we won’t do
The limits, up front.
We don’t own facilities and we don’t resell space. No floor to fill, no bias about where you land.
We won’t call a shell available capacity. If the power is not contracted, we say so.
We won’t introduce you to eight operators to look busy. Two or three that fit, or we tell you the requirement does not have a good answer in that metro yet.
We won’t guess on a date. We would rather come back tomorrow with the real one.
What else we handle
If the space is the problem today, one of these is usually the problem next:
The hardware to fill itServers, storage, switching and optics, without the OEM premium, staged and burnt in before it ships.Hardware & capacity
Getting it into the countryImporter of record, customs, duties and VAT recovery.
Connecting the sitesPrivate links, DCI and dark fibre when two facilities need to behave as one.
Filling what you do not useIf you hold more capacity than you need, that becomes an off-take conversation rather than a write-off.Hardware & capacity
What a deal looks like
Power first, then everything else.
Every AI facility conversation reduces to one question: where do the megawatts come from, and when. Grid connections are quoted in years in most markets, which means real available power is the scarcest asset in the chain, scarcer than the GPUs. A brochure that says a site supports AI densities and a substation agreement that guarantees the draw are different documents, and we qualify on the second.
The checklist we run before a site is proposed: secured power and its escalation terms, rack density the floor actually supports today, cooling that matches the generation you are deploying rather than the one the hall was built for, carrier diversity, and expansion rights in writing. A site that fails any one of these will fail it at the worst possible time, which is after your hardware has landed.
For operators with stranded capacity, the desk runs in reverse: we match your watts against qualified demand, from single-hall requirements to multi-megawatt anchor tenants.
Three numbers
How a facility shortlist gets made.
Settle density first and the market narrows honestly. Skip it and you tour halls that were never going to work.
Density decides the shortlist long before price does
Straight answers
The questions this desk gets first.
How much power does a GPU cluster actually need?
Rack-scale AI is now measured in tens of kilowatts per rack, and the newest generations push past what most legacy halls can cool. As a sanity check: a modest fifty-node deployment is a megawatt-class conversation once cooling overhead is counted. This is why we qualify power before anything else.
Liquid cooling or air?
The generation decides, not preference. Current flagship HGX platforms are increasingly liquid-first, and a hall without liquid capability restricts you to lower-density configurations. If your roadmap includes the next generation, the cooling question is really a which-buildings-qualify question.
Can you get us capacity in a specific country?
Usually, and the honest answer depends on the country and the timeline. Named facilities with real available power exist in fewer places than the market maps suggest. Tell us the jurisdiction constraint and we will tell you what genuinely exists there.
We have spare capacity. Can you fill it?
Yes. Qualified demand for real available power is the easiest match we make. We verify what your site can actually deliver, then put it in front of buyers whose requirements it fits, on your commercial terms.
How we get paid
You pay the supplier direct.
Operators compensate us under referral agreements for qualified volume. You pay nothing incremental. We have no floor to fill and no position in your deal, which is the only reason our shortlist is worth anything.
