(2026-06-06) Google Will Pay SpaceX $920M Per Month For Compute

Google will pay SpaceX $920M per month for compute. The deal is similar in length and scope to the one SpaceX announced with Anthropic in late May.

Google’s deal appears to be paying for roughly half the amount of compute that Anthropic has access to at Colossus 1

its parent company Alphabet is on a spending spree. Alphabet has already committed to more than $180 billion in capital expenditures this year, and has said it expects that “significantly increase” in 2027. To help with that, Alphabet recently announced an $80 billion equity sale.

Also like the Anthropic deal, the agreement with Google includes a cancellation clause. Both SpaceX and Google have the option to terminate the agreement with 90 days notice after December 31, 2026.

Google is a longtime investor in SpaceX.
