Metadata-only deterministic audit

Find wasted data movement before it burns GPU budget.

Copy-Space Guard validates transfer schedules, compares them against deterministic lower-bound metrics, and produces CI-ready reports for AI, HPC and analytics infrastructure.

Who buys this?

  • AI infrastructure teams
  • GPU cloud and HPC platform teams
  • Storage vendors
  • Database and analytics engine teams
  • Data platform teams with expensive shuffle/staging/checkpointing

What you get in a pilot

  • Normalized transfer-demand contract
  • Baseline vs candidate schedule comparison
  • HTML/Markdown/JSON report bundle
  • Estimated savings model
  • CI regression gate recipe

The wedge

Do not replace the customer's scheduler. Validate it independently, quantify its lower-bound gap, and add a regression gate. Start with one trace. Expand into custom importers, model extensions, and enterprise audit/ledger later.
