No permit record shows it yet, so this page prints it as announced. Compute Atlas (Jul 26, 2026) reports it as approved. The sources disagree: Server Country reports proposed. ### Who is building Project Dazzler? Google is the operator. No public record names the general contractor yet. It shows here the day one does. ### When is Project Dazzler expected to finish? Server Country reports expected completion in 2029. That is a reported target, not a schedule. ### Which carriers serve Project Dazzler? No public record names them yet. They show here when a filing does. ### How do contractors on Project Dazzler 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/).
