Execution Timeline
Commercial Acceleration Protocol: $500k seed capital deploying 14 Seed Rigs in leased facility (Months 2-5), then building purpose-built facility for asset ownership (Months 24-36).
Residential Pilot
Initial GPU cluster deployment for revenue validation
Infrastructure Setup
240V circuit, network fiber installation
Hardware Procurement
8x RTX 5090, EPYC platform, server PSUs acquisition
Build & Verification
Assembly, Proxmox install, Vast.ai verification
Commercial Acceleration
Industrial-scale deployment in leased Austintown facility
Foundation
Lease signing, insurance, PDUs, exhaust, 2Gbps fiber
The Ramp
B2B distributor accounts, 4 rigs/month deployment
Full Capital Allocation
14 rigs (112 GPUs) deployed, $36,400/mo revenue
Asset Ownership
Purpose-built facility — Move from commercial lease to owned asset
Capital Accumulation
Profit allocation builds reserves for facility acquisition/construction
Site Selection & Design
Property acquisition, architectural design, permits for purpose-built facility
Construction & Migration
Build purpose-built compute facility, migrate operations from leased space
Strategic Phases
Each phase generates revenue before proceeding to the next, ensuring self-funded expansion.
Seed Rig
Residential pilot: Validate the model with single GPU cluster before commercial scale.
Investment & Returns
Capital: $30k
Target: $2,450/mo FCF
Key Milestones
- Site Prep:240V circuit, grow tent, business fiber
- Hardware:8x RTX 5090, EPYC 9124, ASRock Rack board

Commercial HQ
Commercial Acceleration: Industrial facility in Austintown with 14 Seed Rigs (112 GPUs).
Investment & Returns
Capital: $371k
Target: $36,400/mo Revenue
Key Milestones
- Foundation:Lease, insurance, PDUs, 2Gbps fiber

- Operations:$6k/mo OpEx, $30k/mo FCF
Unlisted HQ
Purpose-built facility: Move operations from commercial lease to asset ownership. Eliminates lease costs, provides permanent operational base.
Investment & Returns
Capital: Accumulated Profits
Target: $36,400/mo FCF
Key Milestones
- Accumulation:Months 6-24: Build reserves from profits
- Site Selection:Months 24-30: Property acquisition & design
- Construction:Months 30-36: Build purpose-built facility
- Migration:Move operations from leased space to owned asset
Operational Roadmap
Execution plan from months 0-18: just-in-time launch, ramp to 14 rigs, and reserve build for HQ construction.
Month 1: The "Just-in-Time" Launch
- Legal: Execute Regulation D filing and finalize LLC restructuring for capital intake.
- Procurement (Critical Path): Initiate bot purchasing and distributor orders for the Pilot Batch (4 rigs / 32 GPUs); do not sign the lease until hardware is secured.
- Lease Execution: Sign short-term (12-24 month) flex-industrial lease (e.g., 20 Lexington Pl, Austintown).
- Infrastructure: Install 0U PDUs and exhaust ventilation in the leased unit.
Month 2: Pilot Operations
- Deploy: Bring Pilot Batch online.
- Verification: Tune BIOS to ensure all rigs pass Vast.ai bandwidth tests and achieve "Verified" status.
- Revenue: Start generating ~$10,000/mo run-rate revenue.
Months 3-6: The Ramp to Capacity
- Velocity: Deploy 2-3 new rigs per month using incoming seed capital.
- Full Scale: Reach 14 Seed Rigs (112 GPUs) by Month 6.
- Sales: Launch Ohio Private Intelligence Cloud pilot with 1-2 local engineering firms to validate high-margin retainers.
Operations & Discipline
- Maintain 95%+ uptime; implement automated scavenging scripts to maximize off-peak revenue.
- Strictly limit OpEx; founder-managed fleet, no excessive hiring.
- Sweep net profits (~$30k/mo) into an HQ Fund high-yield treasury account earmarked for construction.
Site & Design
- Identify and acquire vacant industrial-zoned land in Austintown/Mahoning Valley.
- Finalize architectural prints for Unlisted HQ: ~2,000 sq ft steel facility engineered for passive/economizer cooling.
