Frequently asked questions

Is renting cheaper than the API?+

Only at high, steady utilization. Idle GPUs waste money — compare with our self-hosted vs API calculator.

Do I need GPUs 24/7?+

For inference you can autoscale to zero; for training you pay for the full run. Adjust hours/day accordingly.
