Genesis Grid is licensed against the capacity you put under management, in one of two forms: a licence or a revenue share. Under a licence that is a platform fee plus a unit fee per node or accelerator. What your tenants pay for that capacity is yours to set, and none of it passes through us. What the capacity is worth still depends on demand you can reach; the stack makes it sellable, not sold.
Because that number is yours, not ours. Genesis Grid is the platform your tenants buy capacity from, and what they pay is your pricing decision and your margin. We price the software underneath it, against the size of the estate you put under management.

You do, in both contract forms. The control plane, the portal, upgrades and out-of-hours incidents sit with your team, and Genesis backs that team with escalation support against the response times in your support tier. The comparison to make is not team against no team: it is a smaller and less specialised operations team, of the kind that runs licensed virtualisation software today, against the platform-engineering organisation a stack of your own would need permanently.
No. We do not offer managed operation of your platform, and it is not on the roadmap. We are a software company, we sell a licence, and we support the people who run it. Anything else would put us on your on-call rota and between you and your tenants, which is exactly what an operator should not buy.
You hold it. The meter runs in your estate and the usage records behind your invoices are yours to export and to check. What the contract adds is symmetry: the same records settle our share, we receive an agreed extract and no other access, and either side can call a reconciliation. If metering degrades, records are rebuilt from the reservation ledger and the gap is settled by the documented method rather than by estimate.
That depends on the form you chose, and it is why there are two. Under a licence you have paid for software that has not yet earned its keep. Under a revenue share we are paid only when your tenants are billed, so a flat quarter costs us what it costs you. A ramp and the service levels you owe your tenants go into the contract with remedies attached, and you see both in the written offer.
The facility, the power contract, the hardware, the bandwidth and the people who operate the platform stay yours and stay on your books. Third-party accelerators you sell through Genesis Grid are metered exactly like the ones you own.
