Every market, one scale

## Which AI prices are moving

Each line is a price index: 100 on the first day the Index priced that market, then moved only by sellers changing the price of something already tracked. A new model or a new offer joining the set never moves it.

### Price index by market

First day = 100. Above 100, the same things cost more than they did; below 100, less.

| Market | Since | Median then | Median now | Index | 7 days | 30 days | All time |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [GPU cloud](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus)117 prices, per GPU-hour | Sep 10, 2026 | $6.23 | $6.00 | 104.3 | +0.2% | +3.6% | +4.3% |

| [Open models](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/open-models)276 prices, output per million tokens | Sep 10, 2026 | $0.88 | $0.95 | 99.6 | −0.6% | −0.3% | −0.4% |
| [Colocation](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/colocation)16 prices, AI factory, all-in per kW-month | Oct 10, 2026 | $277.03 | $277.03 | 100.0 | 0% | 0% | 0% |
| [Landlord lease](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/wholesale#leases)29 prices, per kW-month | Sep 10, 2026 | $155.60 | $155.60 | 100.0 | 0% | 0% | 0% |

Median then and median now can move while the index stays flat: that is the mix changing (a cheaper model launched, a pricier offer added), not anyone repricing.

GPU cloud

## GPU prices by the hour, over time

117 published list prices per GPU-hour. Index +4.3% since Sep 10, 2026, +3.6% over the last 30 days. Spot and committed rates are left out so a discount ending does not read as a price rise.

### Median list price per GPU-hour, by accelerator

| GPU | Prices | Median then | Median now | 30 days | All time | Median, daily |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [NVIDIA H100](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/h100) | 38 | $4.04 | $4.17 | +2.8% | +3% |  |
| [NVIDIA H200](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/h200) | 22 | $4.55 | $5.33 | +4.8% | +6.1% |  |
| [NVIDIA B200](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/b200) | 20 | $7.15 | $8.02 | +3.7% | +4.8% |  |

| [NVIDIA B300](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/b300) | 13 | $8.07 | $9.99 | +7.4% | +8.8% |  |
| [NVIDIA GB300 NVL72](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/gb300) | 4 | $13.31 | $14.59 | +11% | +13.8% |  |
| [AMD Instinct MI300X](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/mi300x) | 6 | $3.45 | $3.65 | 0% | 0% |  |
| [AMD Instinct MI325X](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/mi325x) | 2 | $2.90 | $2.90 | 0% | 0% |  |
| [AMD Instinct MI355X](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/mi355x) | 2 | $5.60 | $5.60 | 0% | 0% |  |

All time is the same-item index for that GPU, so it can differ from the move in the median when providers add or drop offers.

Frontier models

## Frontier model API prices, over time

270 model prices per million tokens. Output index 0% since Sep 10, 2026; median output price $9.50 then, $3.50 now. New models launch cheaper than the ones they replace, which pulls the median down without any listed model changing price.

### Same-item price index

Output and input, first day = 100.

### Median price per million tokens

Across every model tracked that day; moves with the mix.

No model in this market has changed its listed output price since Sep 10, 2026. [Every change the Index has recorded](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/changes).

Open models

## Open model prices by host, over time

276 model prices per million tokens across every host the Index reads. Output index −0.4% since Sep 10, 2026; median output price $0.88 then, $0.95 now.

### Same-item price index

Colocation

## Colocation and power prices, over time

16 markets, each priced every day from the same data as [colocation pricing by market](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/colocation): rent, cooling, delivered power built from the utility's filed tariff, and add-ons. Tracked since Oct 10, 2026. When a tariff is re-read, the change publishes once a second check sees it, and lands in [price changes](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/changes) with the filing.

### All-in price per kW of IT per month, by market

Year 1, landlord-delivered cooling. Rent, power and add-ons stacked.

Markets marked * use a neighboring market's rents.

### All-in price over time

12 days so far; the line fills in as tariffs and rents are re-read.

### Delivered power against the state and U.S. average

Lines are EIA monthly averages from Form 861M, 2010 to Jul 2026, preliminary from 2025: every customer in the state, not a 25 MW load. The copper point is the SAVRN tariff stack for that market.

Method

## How the history is built

### Every price, every day

price(day) = last trusted read

The tracker reads each source several times a day and keeps every read. A price counts from the day it was confirmed. A changed price on a provider's page publishes only when a second check sees it again; a move over 20% waits for a person.

### Median

median(all prices that day)

The middle price across everything tracked in a market that day. It is what a buyer scanning the market sees, so it moves when the mix moves.

### Same-item index

It = It-1 × geomean(pt / pt-1)

Only items priced on both days count, so launches and withdrawals never move it. 100 on the first day. This is the Jevons index statistical agencies use for elementary price indexes.

### Method breaks

When how a market is priced changes, the day is marked on its charts and the earlier points are left as they were published.

- 2026-09-11, Live price checks begin. Before this day every price is SAVRN's September 10 research capture; from it, the tracker re-reads every source several times a day.
- 2026-10-10, Colocation method v1. Delivered power rebuilt from each utility's filed tariff for a 25 MW load at 85% load factor, replacing a flat market power rate. High-density = 50 kW x 20 racks; AI factory = 250 kW x 40 racks.

The SAVRN reference set

## Seven references, one system

Capital, delay, policy, water, grid, permits and scarcity are one system seen from seven sides. Each reference is primary-sourced, refreshed on a schedule, and links into the others, so a project can be followed from the money committed to the docket that stopped it.

Capital Atlas

Who is funding AI data centers: capital providers, named sites, financing transactions, and the blocked-and-delayed record, state by state and company by company.

[Open the atlas →](https://savrn.com/data-center-capital-atlas)

Delay Watchlist

Project-level slippage: named projects, jurisdictional actions, utility and federal dockets, SEC disclosures, and the interconnection queue.

Open the watchlist →

Moratorium Tracker

The policy layer: every state measure and local moratorium mapped and cited, with one page per state.

Open the tracker →

Water Tracker

Every federal, state, local and interstate water measure that touches a data center, plus a fifty-state water ledger.

Open the water tracker →

Grid Operator Watchlist

ERCOT, PJM, MISO, CAISO, SPP, NYISO, ISO-NE and FERC: the large-load rules, filings and queue positions that decide whether a site can energize.

Open the watchlist →

Permits and Power Development

Data center and substation permits, large loads in the interconnection queues, and the power plants planned to serve them, refreshed hourly from public records.

Open the permits tracker →

SAVRN Scarcity Tracker

Eleven primary-sourced indicators of AI infrastructure scarcity, one composite index, read against the token index, SAVRN's own cost basis and the frontier ceiling.
