Build for headroom, not just today's traffic.
You have real, growing usage — more simultaneous users, and a product that can't afford to be slow or go down. The cheapest build that technically fits the model is the wrong answer here: you need spare memory for traffic spikes, room to run more than one model, and a machine that keeps serving customers if part of it fails.
Step 1 — which model are you building around?
Step 2 — the recommendation
1x NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 Rack
- Kimi K2.7 (Code) needs 1,200 GB just to load. A startup's minimum build gets you exactly that much room — fine for one model, one modest audience, zero margin for error.
- Kimi K2.7 is Moonshot's flagship coding agent — a mid-size company building a product around it will want fast responses under real traffic, not a model that's constantly swapping in and out of memory. One GB300 rack gives 20 TB of headroom, room for a second model, and enough spare capacity to absorb growth without a re-buy.
- Headroom, quantified: this build carries 20,480 GB against a 1,200 GB requirement — 17.1x the model's footprint, versus 1.9x for the bare-minimum startup build.
- Total price: $3,850,000. More upfront than the startup build — the trade you're buying is capacity you won't outgrow in a quarter.
- Total power: 135,000 W — about 112 homes running around the clock. Running continuously, that's a full EV battery's worth of energy (90 kWh) every about 40 minutes. At this scale, talk to your facility or colocation provider about power capacity before you talk about the invoice.
