GPUDECK · INDEPENDENCE · THE MONEY RULES, IN WRITING
What money can never buy here.
A market record is only worth citing if nobody can pay to bend it.
This page states how GPUDeck earns, what that money can and cannot touch, and where
every commercial relationship is published as open, dated data.
GPUDeck may earn money from software subscriptions, data services and
disclosed referral links. Nobody can buy inclusion, ordering, a favorable figure or a
methodology decision. Sponsored placement does not exist on GPUDeck.
How GPUDeck earns
The deck — operations software for people who run GPU supply. A product,
priced openly, entirely separate from the public record it sits beside.
Data services — the daily open record stays free forever; convenience on top
of it (query APIs, history, alerts, service levels) may be sold. Third-party source data is
never resold beyond what its license explicitly permits.
Disclosed referral links — some outbound rental links carry a referral code.
Every such relationship is listed in
commercial-relationships.csv with its basis
and dates. Referral links are allowed only on card pages, provider pages, /quote after the
receipt, and /value after the evidence — never on the method, data, or frozen-edition
pages. Every provider gets identical treatment whether GPUDeck earns from it or not, and
evidence links (SOURCE) are always separate from commercial links (RENT).
What is never for sale
Inclusion in or exclusion from the record.
Position, ordering, or emphasis — the catalogue order is permanent and public.
Any published figure, window, suppression decision, or methodology rule.
Sponsored placements, featured providers, partner badges, or logo strips.
Softer treatment in the census, the goodput record, or a market note.
Verify it
The disclosure is data, not prose: commercial-relationships.csv
carries every relationship with affects_inclusion=false · affects_order=false
as testable columns. The record itself is verifiable byte-for-byte via
the SHA-256 manifest, and every frozen
issue carries its own digest. If a relationship ever changed a figure,
the diff would be public before we could explain it — that is the point.
