Overview
Crusoe started by running compute on natural gas that would otherwise have been flared, and grew into a builder of large AI data center campuses, including the Abilene, Texas site built for OpenAI and Oracle. Crusoe Cloud sells GPU capacity in its own facilities, including GB300 NVL72 and HGX B300 (crusoe.ai).
Good fit if
- You need a very large, single-tenant deployment.
- Energy sourcing matters to your company.
- You can plan around a new site coming online.
Things to check
- Campus and start date. Ask which site your capacity is in and whether it's running.
- Platform tooling. Crusoe was rated Bronze in ClusterMAX 3.0; read the reasons and test your own workload.
