SIT Price Index maps tokens to GPU economics

The new SIT Price Index standardizes AI work by pricing tokens at fixed capability levels, then links those prices to GPU throughput and rental costs. Its first fixing exposes the gap between token revenue and the hardware cost required to produce it.

// ANALYSIS

This is a useful bridge between AI pricing data and compute economics, turning the vague “crunch spread” debate into a measurable margin model.

  • –Separates fixed-capability SITB and frontier SITF prices from usage-weighted token indices
  • –Connects token revenue to measured throughput, GPU rental prices, utilization, and owner economics
  • –Shows how the cheapest qualifying model can sit far below the broader capability-adjusted index
  • –Gives builders a common unit for budgeting agent workloads and gives operators or lenders a framework for margin risk
  • –The main caveat is data maturity: the index has only an initial fixing, uses some estimated prices, and is explicitly not yet a tradeable reference rate
