Underwrite datacenter sites before you wire the deposit

Datacenter Feasibility runs power, site, and regulatory diligence on a prospective datacenter site — greenfield, brownfield, or an existing operating asset — and rolls the findings into an underwriting model and IC memo.

Beta access is invite-first — reach out and we'll get you into a workspace.

The problem

Datacenter site diligence means a dozen specialists and a slow deal clock

The Challenge

  • Power/interconnection capacity takes weeks of utility back-and-forth.
  • Zoning, title, and environmental checks live with outside counsel and consultants.
  • Tax incentive and market comp research is scattered across state and county sources.
  • Every deal needs a separate underwriting model and IC memo built by hand.

The Datacenter Feasibility Solution

  • One deal record per site, with target MW, capex, and deal type up front.
  • Power feasibility runs live today — utility ID, interconnection queue, and rate structure, cited.
  • Every study resolves to a GO / CONDITIONAL / NO-GO verdict with cost and timeline ranges.
  • Underwriting model and IC memo export straight from the deal.
Feasibility framework

21 study types, four categories

Power feasibility runs live today, grounded in real-time utility and interconnection sources with citations. The rest of the cohort runs on the same underwriting framework and is rolling out during the beta.

Luminance jumped into the code top-to-bottom for a last-minute project, and turned it around in record time. I can't recommend them enough. If you're looking for help on tech or investment projects I'm happy to recommend them.
