Google buys from SpaceX
Disclosed in a SpaceX filing ahead of its IPO: under a June 5, 2026 agreement, Google pays SpaceX $920 million per month from October 2026 through June 2029 — roughly $30 billion total — for access to about 110,000 NVIDIA GPUs plus CPUs and memory in xAI's data centers. Google can terminate, or take a pro rata fee cut, if the GPUs are not delivered by September 30, 2026, and after December 31, 2026 either side can cancel on 90 days' notice.

What it works out to per chip-hour
Possible only because the filing gives both a monthly payment and a chip count.
An all-in figure: the contract bundles CPUs, storage, networking and facilities, so it is not a like-for-like comparison with a per-GPU on-demand rate. Compare against today's rentable rates in the live GPU pricing table.
