About Nscale

Nscale is built around reserving and deploying GPU capacity for AI workloads, from training to inference. Users can reserve GPUs directly through the platform and deploy on Nscale Cloud, a managed environment that includes dedicated inference, customizable Environments, and managed Kubernetes and Slurm for orchestrating compute. Bare metal instances are also available for teams needing dedicated, unmanaged GPU infrastructure with enterprise IAM and security controls layered on top.

The platform is organized into four components: Nscale Cloud (managed AI services and bare metal instances), Nscale Infrastructure (dedicated GPU and CPU compute with fast networking and storage, described as "Fleet Operations"), Nscale Data Centers (modular, liquid-cooled facilities designed for low power usage effectiveness), and Nscale Energy & Power (dedicated energy infrastructure including behind-the-meter power and microgrid islands). This vertically integrated approach covers power sourcing and data center construction through to the cloud software layer that AI teams interact with.

Nscale is aimed at AI labs, enterprises, and industry-specific users such as telecommunications companies and AI-native companies building and deploying models at scale. Telco companies are described as using Nscale's GPU infrastructure for 5G network optimization and AI analytics, while AI-native companies use it for model development and deployment. Pricing is not published on the site; access to GPU capacity is arranged through reservation and direct contact with Nscale.
