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.

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.

| Minimum commitment | None on pay-as-you-go; subscription terms billed in full | None; prepaid balance |
| Payment model | Postpaid invoice by default; prepaid credits for some products; subscriptions | Prepaid balance (one-time or auto top-up); long-term paid up-front |

Neither site tells you 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.
