The AI cloud built by the creators of PyTorch Lightning
Spin up single GPUs, full nodes or reserved clusters by the second, selectable from T4 and L4 up to A100, H100, H200, B200 and TPUs, with no long-term contract required.
Ready-to-code environments with CUDA, PyTorch and common libraries preinstalled, usable from the browser, a local IDE or a terminal, with automatic sleep to stop idle spend.
Launch distributed training jobs and large-scale data preparation across multi-node GPU and high-CPU machines, with interruptible instances at up to about 80% off.
Turn a checkpoint into an endpoint or app without rewriting infrastructure code, and host public app links or private model APIs with configurable rate limits.
An AI tools directory with one-click self-hosting for open-source models
A searchable catalogue of AI tools, applications and services organised by category, kept deliberately broad for both professionals and newcomers.
Explainer entries for major open-weight models such as Gemma, Phi, FLUX, Kimi K2, Open-Sora and Nvidia Nemotron, covering strengths and typical use.
Pick a Mac Mini or ARM Snapdragon server and have preinstalled models deployed for you, with a flat monthly price instead of per-token billing.
Sections for ChatGPT-style plugins, reusable prompts and a marketplace where AI providers and buyers can connect.
