SpaceX inks data center deal with startup Reflection AI for $1.8 bln per year
SpaceX has signed a multi-year contract with young artificial intelligence startup Reflection AI, which will pay around $1.8 billion annually to access the rocket company's AI data centers.
The agreement follows earlier deals with Anthropic and Google, signed in early May and early June, respectively. It further confirms the evolution of SpaceX's business model, which is positioning itself as a provider of AI computing power.
Under the new contract, Reflection AI will gain access to capacity at the Colossus 2 data center, located in Memphis on the border between Tennessee and Mississippi, starting on July 1.
Once operations reach full scale, Reflection will pay SpaceXAI, SpaceX's AI subsidiary, $150 million per month through late 2029.
