RTX Spark Accelerator
Prove one workload at your customer in 30 days.
A 30-day proof of concept on Surface Laptop Ultra, run at your customer. You bring the account. We build a working version of one real workload and show it to their executives with the network off. If it proves out, the device and services business is yours.
How it works
01You bring the customer
One account seller's time and one form. You nominate, you sign
off, and you stay in the room.
02We prove one workload
A working app on their real work, branded as their own software,
running locally on the device.
03Their executives see it run
Demo day with the network off, and four numbers their own people
scored.
04You sell the expansion
Devices, then the production work, then the support tail. The
follow-on is yours.
What the customer gets
- One or two Surface Laptop Ultra devices on site for the 30 days.
- A working prototype of one real workload, running locally on the device and branded as the customer's own software: their logo, colors, and language.
- A demo for their executives with four numbers: how much of the workload ran on the device, how much faster it ran, how good the output was by their own measure, and why it belongs there.
- A how-to playbook their team can follow: setting the device up for AI development, loading and running models, adapting the app, and extending it to the next workload.
- A path to production through your own services practice or an approved software partner.
Where we stop
We prove whether the workload belongs on the device, and how much of it. We do not build the production application. That work is yours.
How it is paid for
The Accelerator is built to fit Microsoft's proof-of-concept funding, and Cadence 3 is an eligible partner for that program. Microsoft approves funding one customer at a time. When it does, the customer does not pay.
