Fixed price without the lock-in: reserved capacity, minus the trap

The reserved-instance bargain has always carried a hidden cost: you trade price for flexibility, and if your roadmap moves, you eat the difference. It doesn't have to work that way.

Reserved pricing is cheaper than on-demand because you pre-commit. The problem is the commitment: 12 to 36 months, no clean exit, and capacity you can't re-place if your training run finishes early or your roadmap pivots.

A transferable block keeps the fixed-price benefit and removes the trap: if you don't need the remainder, you relist it back to us and we work to re-place it.
