Princeps
Princeps builds the underwriting layer for AI infrastructure, modeling and pricing risks like GPU cluster failures, capacity shortfalls, and SLA breaches that standard commercial policies exclude. The company's first product, the Workbench, transforms raw compute risk inputs into structured, bindable coverage, compressing policy creation from years to days. Princeps is working with Ornn, a large compute marketplace, to bring transparency to neocloud provider reliability.

Product
Problem
AI infrastructure—GPU clusters, data centers, and compute capacity—carries significant financial risk when it fails, yet standard commercial policies exclude non-physical-damage business interruption, leaving providers and their customers exposed. The gap between the scale of compute commitments and the lack of insurable coverage creates a measurement problem that blocks capital from flowing into infrastructure buildout.
Solution
Princeps builds the underwriting layer for AI infrastructure, modeling and pricing compute-specific risks such as GPU cluster failures, capacity shortfalls, and SLA breaches. The company's first product, the Workbench, takes raw inputs of compute risk—SLA terms, market prices, grid data, failure modes, and contract structures—and turns them into structured, priced coverage that carriers can bind. This software compresses what traditionally takes carriers years into days, enabling insurers with balance sheets and premium appetite to underwrite hardware they have never modeled before. Princeps is working with Ornn, one of the largest marketplaces for compute, to bring greater transparency into the reliability of neocloud providers trading on their platform.
Target Audience
Primary customers are compute providers, neoclouds, and AI infrastructure operators who need coverage for downtime and SLA breaches, as well as insurers and carriers seeking to underwrite compute-specific risk.
