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.
| GPU.ai | Verda | |
|---|---|---|
| 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. | Per second | 10-minute prepaid increments |
| Minimum commitment | $5 minimum deposit, no term | None; prepaid balance |
| Payment model | Prepaid credit balance with burn rate and runway | Prepaid balance (one-time or auto top-up); long-term paid up-front |
| Free credits | not stated | Credit coupons at promotions and hackathons |
| Uptime SLA | not stated | No SLA; availability not warranted |
| Regions | 8 regions: US East/Central/West, Canada, EU West, EU East, India South, Asia-Pacific | FIN-01, FIN-02, FIN-03 — Helsinki, Finland |
Neither site tells you whether you get credits when it breaks, what egress costs, what network speed you get or how fast support answers. We looked on both and record the absence rather than filling it in — if you need any of it, ask before you commit.
