Price comparison

Fal.ai logo Fal.ai Pricing

Fal.ai uses a usage-based pricing model, ensuring you only pay for the compute you consume. It offers two main structures:

  • GPU Pricing: Billed per second for deploying custom applications on their GPU fleet.
  • Output-Based Pricing: For models hosted by Fal.ai, billing is based on the output generated, such as per image, per megapixel, or per second of video.

TensorWave logo TensorWave Pricing

TensorWave publishes a starting per-GPU hourly rate for each bare metal node and quotes the final price through sales. There is no self-serve signup.

MI455X capacity on Helios racks can be reserved ahead of launch, with no rate announced.
