Nscale builds artificial intelligence data centers with what it describes as a vertically integrated approach. Nscale is raising the capital by issuing convertible notes, short-term debt instruments that investors can exchange for stock.

Nscale reportedly hopes to raise $3 billion at a $35 billion valuation. The company’s pitch to Wall Street revolves around the more than $103 billion in total contracted value, or TCV, that it has on the books.

TCV is a metric that forecasts future revenue from data centers. Nscale expects most of that revenue to come from contracts with Microsoft Corp.
