Rent NVIDIA cloud GPUs by the hour — or at cluster scale
Rent hourly NVIDIA GPUs from B300-class hardware down to A30, each with pre-installed CUDA, no bandwidth caps, and no contract lock-in.
Reserve physical, single-tenant servers for extra privacy and isolation, with setup in one to three days.
Scale to 8–512+ node InfiniBand-connected clusters tuned for distributed training and heavy compute, with dedicated support.
Provision instances from your own code via a REST API and MCP server, with bearer keys, scoped tokens, webhooks, and Python, Node.js, Go, and Terraform tooling.
Distributed GPU cloud that orchestrates the world's idle consumer GPUs
Schedules, monitors and reallocates Docker/OCI workloads across thousands of distributed GPU nodes, with failover when nodes disappear.
On-demand access to a distributed pool of idle consumer GPUs across 190+ countries with priority pricing from about $0.015 per GPU-hour.
A managed token endpoint for open-weight models priced per token, with your data never used for training.
Run the same orchestration stack inside your organisation, pooling idle workstation GPUs into an internal OpenAI-compatible service.
Offers reliable dedicated and serverless GPU rentals, but lacks Salad's ultra-low-cost peer-to-peer consumer hardware pool.
