## Questions this page answers

### Is Project Kestrel under construction?

No permit record shows it yet, so this page prints it as announced. Compute Atlas (Sep 10, 2026) reports it as approved. The sources disagree: Server Country reports proposed.

### Who is building Project Kestrel?

Shenandoah Computing LLC is the operator. No public record names the general contractor yet. It shows here the day one does.

### Which carriers serve Project Kestrel?

No public record names them yet. They show here when a filing does.

### How do contractors on Project Kestrel 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.
