A request states the capacity your company needs. The GPU Outlet team matches it to listings and offers it to sellers. Sellers see the demand without your company name. When a seller accepts, you are introduced and contract directly. Your requests live at /app/requests, under Requests on the Buy menu.
Only an owner, authorized signatory or trader can create, edit or close a request. A viewer sees “Only an owner, signatory or trader can state demand.” See Team and roles.

​
Create a request

Press New request on /app/requests, or Request this capacity on a Radar listing. The form opens at /app/requests/new. From Radar, GPU and Region arrive filled in. You can send requests before your company signs the Buyer marketplace agreement. See Agreements. The form has three sections: Capacity, When, and for how long and Commercial.

​
Capacity

​
When, and for how long

​
Commercial

Use Notes for interconnect, storage, compliance or anything else that narrows the match. The GPU Outlet team reads them when preparing a match. Sellers see the demand, not these notes. Press Send the request. If a field needs fixing, the form says “Some fields need attention. Fix the marked ones and send again.” and marks each field. Once sent, you land on the request’s own page.
Be specific. A seller judges the fit on the demand alone, because it carries no company name.

​
What sellers see

A seller offered your request sees only the demand:
  • GPU model, GPUs per node and nodes
  • Region
  • Start date, and the term in months or the end date
  • Monthly budget and currency, or “Budget not stated”
A seller never sees your company name, your country, your notes or who created the request. Your company is revealed only when a seller accepts. See Opportunities for the seller’s view. If a seller declines, nothing changes on your request page. The request can still be offered to other sellers.

​
Statuses

The GPU Outlet team prepares matches by hand. A request can stay Open until the team finds a fit.
Winning a lot creates a request on your company’s behalf, copied from the listing you bid on and noted as coming from the auction. It arrives already matched, because the introduction it belongs to exists. See Bidding.

​
Edit a request

Open the request and press Edit. The same form opens with your values. Press Save changes. Edit is available only while the request is Open. Once a seller has been offered it, the page says “A seller has been offered this request, so its terms are frozen. Close it and create a new one to change them.” Terms freeze because the seller has already read them. The demand a seller accepts has to be the demand you stated.

​
Close a request

Press Close request on the request page. A dialog asks “Close this request?” and explains “Sellers stop seeing it. An introduction already made stays.”
  • Press Close request to confirm, or Keep it open to back out.
  • Closing cannot be undone, and a request cannot be deleted. Create a new request whenever you need one.
  • An introduction already made on the request stays in place, with everything in it.

​
The request page

Each request has its own page at /app/requests/:id. It shows:
  • A summary of the demand, with region, start, term and budget.
  • The status.
  • Your notes, if any.
  • Edit and Close request, when allowed.
  • Introductions: every introduction made on this request. While the request is Open, an empty section reads “No seller has accepted yet. You are told the moment one does.” Otherwise it reads “No introduction on this request.”

​
The requests list

/app/requests lists your company’s requests. Each row shows the demand, region, start date, term and status.
  • Filter by status with the Any status menu: Open, Awaiting seller or Closed.
  • Press Load more to see the next page.
  • Press New request to create one.
