Vast.aiOpen GPU marketplace
A bidding marketplace where independent hosts and data centers set their own rates, with on-demand, interruptible and 1–6 month reserved options. Below: their published rates read on 19 September 2026, what they add up to over a full month, and the cases where Vast.ai is simply the better choice.
Every model Vast.ai publishes that we also rent. Their rate is the standard on-demand tier — spot and preemptible tiers are cheaper and noted where they exist.
| GPU | Vast.ai published rate | One month, 24/7 | Our monthly | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NVIDIA H100 SXM80 GB HBM3 | $0.51–$1.74/h depending on host (spot → on-demand) | $1,270 | $1,249 | −2% |
| NVIDIA A10080 GB HBM2e | $0.14–$0.38/h depending on host | $277 | $649 | +134% |
| NVIDIA RTX 409024 GB GDDR6X | $0.17–$0.40/h depending on host | $292 | $189 | −35% |

Both of these lists are real. Pick the column that describes your workload.
Choose Vast.ai if price is the only variable that matters, your job checkpoints well, and an interruption costs you nothing but time.
Choose us if the GPUs stay busy, you want the bill to be predictable, and you would rather not hand over an identity document to rent a computer.
| What to check | Vast.ai | GPU Cloud HQ |
|---|---|---|
| How you are billed | Per second, prepaid credits | Flat monthly price, prepaid balance, invoices settle themselves |
| Commitment | None; reserved terms of 1, 3 or 6 months advertised up to 50% off | Rolling month, or 3/6/12 months for 5–15% off |
| Signing up & identity | Self-serve | Self-serve, email address only — no KYC |
| What you actually get | Mixed: hobbyist rigs alongside vetted data-center hosts | Single-tenant bare metal, root access |
| Uptime commitment | Host-by-host ratings; interruptible instances can be reclaimed when outbid | 99.9% uptime SLA with service credits |
For a machine that stays busy, yes: Vast.ai publishes $0.51–$1.74/h depending on host (spot → on-demand), which is $1,270 for a 730-hour month, against $1,249 flat here for a dedicated H100 — about 2% less. Below roughly 718 hours of use a month, their hourly rate works out cheaper.
Price is the only variable that matters, your job checkpoints well, and an interruption costs you nothing but time. If that is you, stay with them — we would rather say so than sell you the wrong thing.
No. Every price on this page is public on both sides. When you do order here, an email address is all we ask for: no ID document, no company registration, no card — the balance is funded in Bitcoin, Ether or USDT.
