About Ornn
Ornn describes itself as 'The Foundation of the Compute Market,' building financial infrastructure to make GPU compute something that can be priced, financed, and hedged with confidence. Its flagship product is the OCPI (Ornn Compute Price Index), a reference price built on transaction-based data tracking live traded spot prices for GPU compute across hardware types such as H100, H200, B200, and B300, listed on Bloomberg. Ornn's product suite includes Ornn Compute Access (capacity for training, inference, and infrastructure-scale workloads) and Ornn Data (market measurement and intelligence covering pricing, volatility, supply, and demand). The company operates with a compliant architecture including complete KYC/AML protocols, combining physical and financial infrastructure into one compute platform. Ornn recently raised $33M led by A16Z and has been covered by The Economist, The Wall Street Journal, and Bloomberg. Its clients include buyers, sellers, and capital providers across the compute economy.
