Kinesis OneTeam · Share your team’s GPUs without a scheduler project.

More developers than GPUs? Kinesis Grids keep every team moving.

Turn the GPUs you own into one shared Kinesis Grid, with one install command per server: no Kubernetes, no Slurm. People start work without filing a ticket, within the limits you set. Supported data center GPUs split into isolated slices; every other GPU is shared whole, and when GPUs run short, everyone takes turns.

Free to start: no Grid fee on your first 5 servers, and your first 5 users are free.

What keeps teams moving

Less waiting, more shipping.

Everything a shared GPU fleet needs to keep developers moving and every GPU busy, without a scheduler project or a spreadsheet of who gets what.

    When GPUs run short, apps wait in a queue and take turns. Set the allotted time and apps per person; the Grid moves work on when a turn ends.

    Fractional GPUs

    Split supported data center GPUs (A100 and H100 class) into isolated slices with NVIDIA MIG, so one card serves a whole class or several jobs. Each slice counts as one GPU against quotas. GPUs that can’t be sliced are shared whole, in fair-share turns.

    Your whole fleet in one view

    Every server across every Grid, with whose work is running on each GPU. Usage by person and cost by project sit one click away.

  • Idle GPUs come back

    The Grid spots apps that hold GPUs they aren’t using, warns their owners and frees the GPU for the next team.

  • A Grid per group, if you want

    Give each lab, division or cohort its own Grid with its own admins, or pool everything into one.

Who it’s for

Made for places where many people share a few GPUs.

When many people share a few expensive GPUs, the hard part is keeping everyone moving: a fair turn for every team, room for every job, and knowing who is using what. A Kinesis Grid takes care of all three.

  • Universities and research labs

    One cluster for every lab and course, without a sign-up sheet.

    • Each lab or course gets a quota. Fair share handles the rush before deadlines.
    • Slice large GPUs so a whole class can work at once.
    • Usage by person and cost by project for grant reports and chargeback.
    • Students deploy notebooks and models themselves. No admin tickets.
  • Incubators and accelerators

    GPU access for every startup in the cohort, on the program’s own hardware.

    • Every startup gets its own limits, so one launch week doesn’t starve the rest.
    • Separate projects and roles for each team. Share one Grid or give each its own.
    • Program staff see usage by person and cost by project for the whole cohort.
    • Startups keep the same workflow after they graduate, on their own Grid or on Kinesis capacity.

For developers

Let developers try things without asking first.

From idea to running app without waiting on anyone. Try it, break it, redeploy it, all inside the limits you set.

  • Deploy a container image or a GitHub repo in minutes
  • One-click apps from the gallery, from Jupyter notebooks to open LLMs
  • HTTPS endpoints, DNS and load balancing built in
  • A browser terminal, live logs and metrics for every app
  • Persistent volumes, so data survives a redeploy
  • A REST API and an MCP server, so scripts and agents can deploy too

For managers and finance

Know where every GPU-hour goes.

Spend broken down by project and app, usage by person, and a forecast to month-end. Invoices and hourly exports are finance-ready from day one.

Single sign-on, roles, two-factor authentication and an audit log come standard. Need a dedicated or fully private deployment? See Kinesis Private

Your Grid never places work on community hardware unless you choose Kinesis Batches.
