KVM NVMe VPS hosting with global regions, instant deploy
Each server runs as a fully isolated KVM virtual machine with dedicated resources and NVMe SSDs for low-latency disk I/O.
Deploy in US-West or Hong Kong, with Tokyo, Singapore, Frankfurt and London regions listed as under construction.
New servers come online in about one to five minutes through automated deployment and instant activation.
Browser console access, one-click OS reinstall across many Linux distributions, rescue mode, snapshots and live usage graphs.
The AI developer cloud for GPU pods, serverless inference and clustering
Rent GPU instances with on-demand, interruptible or reserved capacity across more than 30 GPU SKUs, from RTX 4090s up to B200 and B300 class accelerators, deployed in 31 global regions.
Deploy any container as an API endpoint that scales from zero to thousands of workers on demand and bills only for the compute you actually use.
Launch multi-node GPU clusters for distributed training and large inference jobs, with shared storage attachable and no long-term commitment required.
Deploy popular open-source models from a curated hub, or use public endpoints for image, audio and text models without managing infrastructure.
AI-powered web hosting platform combining prompt-based website building with one-click managed OpenClaw agent deployments.
