General-purpose cloud against GPU specialist, priced against each other on the 3 GPUs both of them rent. Published per-GPU on-demand rates as each provider last stated them, with what their own pages say about billing, commitment and egress beside the numbers.
Gcore is cheaper on 3 of the 3 cards both of them rent, by a median of 19%.
These are not the same product. A general-purpose cloud and a GPU specialist differ in who your counterparty is, which is why the rates below can be far apart without either being wrong. The prices are comparable; what stands behind them is not.
The 3 cards both of them rent, cheapest published per-GPU on-demand rate each. Dearest first.

Per GPU per hour, on-demand list prices as each provider last published them. Rates exclude tax and vary by region; a cheaper rate is not the same machine, the same network or the same support.
| Gcore | Hyperstack | |
|---|---|---|
| Billing granularityOn short jobs this outweighs the rate: an hour minimum on a 90-second run costs more than a 30% dearer per-second rate. | Hourly (GPU); per minute (inference) | Per minute, balance updates in real time |
| Minimum commitment | None on pay-as-you-go; subscription terms billed in full | None for on-demand; prepaid balance |
| Payment model | Postpaid invoice by default; prepaid credits for some products; subscriptions | Prepaid by default; postpaid and premium postpaid via sales |
| Free credits | Free trial periods offered; startup program | Vouchers (single-use per organisation) |
| Egress | Free | Free |
| Uptime SLA | not stated | 99.5% monthly |
| Regions | 50+ cloud locations; 33 named on the cloud price list | NORWAY-1 (Vestland), CANADA-1 (Quebec), US-1 (Texas) |
Neither site tells you whether your data trains their models, how fast support answers, whether a commitment auto-renews or how long you have to dispute a bill. We looked on both and record the absence rather than filling it in — if you need any of it, ask before you commit.

No. Gcore is a general-purpose cloud — a hosting company where GPUs sit beside the VPS products, on the same account and billing. Hyperstack is a GPU specialist — an operator whose whole business is renting these cards. The rates are comparable; what stands behind them is not.
