Distributed Compute Infrastructure

Power and cooling, solved.
Bring your GPUs.

Laika builds megawatt-class power infrastructure and liquid-cooled cabinets that deploy on your existing utility service in weeks — not years. You slot in your compute. We keep it running.

The problem

The bottleneck in AI isn't GPUs or silicon.
It's power infrastructure.

Interconnect queues

New medium-voltage utility service means multi-year queues, permitting marathons, and construction before a single rack powers on.

Stranded capital

GPUs depreciate while datacenter buildouts crawl. Every month of delay is compute you paid for and can't run.

Cooling that can't keep up

Rack-scale AI systems demand liquid cooling and dense DC power that legacy colo and enterprise server rooms were never built for.

Grid → Chip

Seven layers sit between
the grid and your GPUs

The middle of the stack is where schedules die — and no single vendor lives there. Laika ships it as one product.

Laika DCI delivers L3–L6 as one factory-built product — starting on your existing low-voltage service, so the interconnect queue doesn't gate your first deployment. Scale further with service upgrades or on-site generation when you need them.

How it works

Turnkey infrastructure.
Your silicon.

01 — WE DEPLOY

Factory-built, landed in weeks

Laika manufactures the complete system — power conversion, switchgear, and liquid-cooled cabinets with power pre-routed — and lands it on your existing low-voltage utility service. No new interconnect required to get started. No construction project.

02 — YOU SLOT IN

Bring your own compute

Slide standard trays into pre-provisioned slots: your GPUs, your CPUs, your memory. DC power and liquid cooling are already at the cabinet, ready for rack-scale AI systems.

03 — WE OPERATE

Serviced end to end

Laika monitors, maintains, and services the infrastructure for the life of the deployment — with uptime guarantees and hardware refresh paths built in.

BYO-GPU by design. Own your silicon and your data. Laika owns the hard part — power, cooling, and the service relationship.
The platform

The Laika DCI

A modular, rapidly-deployable datacenter engineered for next-generation rack-scale AI. Three integrated subsystems, one factory-built product.

Laika DCI front view — gateway, inverter, and liquid-cooled compute cabinets

Gateway POWER IN

  • AC and DC switchboard on existing 400/480 V 3-phase LV utility service
  • DC-coupled battery energy storage ready
  • Accepts on-site generation: solar, hydrogen, natural gas, diesel

Power Cabinets CONVERSION

  • 800 kW per power cabinet at 800–950 VDC — pair four for 3.2 MW to the compute cabinets
  • Scale to 9.6 MW by paralleling the DC bus
  • High-frequency silicon-carbide switching, liquid-cooled power modules
  • Run cabinets at 800 kW for N+1 redundancy — or at 400 kW for full 2N
  • Integrated CDU on top of each cabinet drives the liquid cooling loop

Cabinets COMPUTE

  • Liquid-cooled IT cabinets with DC power pre-routed to every slot
  • Expandable up to six racks per power block
  • Ready for NVL72-class rack systems (GB200 / GB300), engineered ahead for next-gen 800 VDC platforms

Who it's for

Built for teams that can't wait
— or can't send data out

Neoclouds

Stand up revenue-generating capacity without land deals, interconnect queues, or a construction org. Your GPUs earn from week one — and scale block by block.

🛡

On-prem & sovereign AI

Inference and training for finance, healthcare, energy, and defense — where data can never leave the building and a public API is a non-starter.

📍

Low-latency edge

Dedicated compute sited next to the workload, for applications where the round trip to a distant datacenter is disqualifying.

Why Laika

Two decades of power infrastructure, productized

Power-first pedigreeBuilt on twenty years of designing, manufacturing, deploying, and servicing high-power infrastructure across the globe.
Factory-built in the USAManufactured and integrated in-house, then shipped as a finished product — not assembled in your parking lot.
Global service operationsA worldwide field-service network stands behind every deployment, with uptime commitments and refresh paths.
