Build odds is ArusGrid's reading of the public record, not a forecast, a rating or advice. It counts the gates this project has passed in public sources. Private progress does not show, a passed gate can be undone, and projects that pass every gate still stop. The method has not yet been tested against outcomes. How it works.

How Qatar approves, powers and taxes data centers is on Data center rules in Qatar.

Initial deployment of Qai GPU infrastructure hosted in one of MEEZA's certified data centres in Qatar, with MEEZA managed services. The building is not named. · as of 2026-10-05

MEEZA release says MEEZA will host Qai's infrastructure within one of its certified, highly secure data centres in Qatar. M-VAULT 6 and 7 were not yet built, so an existing M-VAULT 1 to 5 building is likely. That building link is our inference.
