Nscale signed Anthropic GPU-services agreements covering Monarch Compute Campus deployment of NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 systems, with payments up to $44.6 billion.

Nscale’s S-1 states that it signed a series of GPU-services agreements with Anthropic PBC on August 25, 2026. The agreements cover dedicated GPU infrastructure services at the Monarch Compute Campus to support NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 deployment.

The disclosed aggregate payments are up to approximately $44.6 billion. This is a contractual payment ceiling, not cash already collected, recognized revenue or a disclosed equipment-purchase budget. The supplied excerpt does not specify the Anthropic deployment’s GPU count, rack count, service duration or payment schedule.

Monarch is in Mason County, West Virginia and came into Nscale’s portfolio through its March 2026 acquisition of 100% of American Intelligence & Power Corporation. Following that acquisition, Nscale established Nscale Energy & Power to internalize power-origination and development capabilities.

The filing describes Monarch’s power-development runway as scalable to over 6.5 gigawatts of IT-load power and over 8 gigawatts of gross power. These are distinct measures of potential site scale, not currently operating capacity or power committed entirely to Anthropic. The filing does not allocate the whole campus runway to these agreements.
