No permit record shows it yet, so this page prints it as announced. Compute Atlas (Aug 8, 2026) and Server Country (Sep 24, 2026) report it as under construction. ### Who is building Meta Prometheus? Meta is the operator; the tenants reported are Meta Platforms. No public record names the general contractor yet. It shows here the day one does. ### When is Meta Prometheus expected to finish? Server Country reports expected completion in 2026. That is a reported target, not a schedule. ### Which carriers serve Meta Prometheus? No public record names them yet. They show here when a filing does. ### How do contractors on Meta Prometheus get paid sooner? The owner pays the general contractor, and the general contractor pays its subcontractors. Once your customer approves your invoice, certify it with Kapwork. Funders compete to fund it, so you don't wait for the payment date. Free for businesses. Kapwork doesn't lend and doesn't contact your customer. ## Latest updates - [Expected completion reported](https://servercountry.org/data/projects/).
