Offering overview
Rather than owning data centers, this platform aggregates GPUs from more than 350 hosts, from certified Secure Cloud facilities to community machines, and lets market supply and demand set the price. Renters choose between on-demand (guaranteed uptime), interruptible (bid-based, typically 50% or more cheaper) and reserved tiers with one- to six-month terms. More than 68 GPU types are listed, stretching from RTX 3060 consumer cards through RTX 4090s to A100, H100 and B200 data-center parts. Templates, a CLI and Python SDK, autoscaling serverless endpoints and a model library speed up deployment, and billing accrues per second with no minimums. Hobbyists, researchers and cost-sensitive startups running training, fine-tuning or inference are the primary customers; the company has operated as a Delaware C corporation since 2016 and lists Los Angeles as its headquarters with an engineering hub in San Francisco. Because rates are dynamic across 40+ data centers, there is no fixed price list; live market prices are shown on the pricing page.
