Price comparison

Median price per GPU per hour by billing type, with the cheapest listing under it.

Billing	Gaudi2	P100	Difference
On-demand	$1.21 /GPU/hr from $1.03	$1.42 /GPU/hr from $0.10	15% cheaper on Gaudi2
Reserved	-- /GPU/hr from $0.58 (12 mo)	$1.04 /GPU/hr from $0.12 (24 mo)
Spot	No spot listings	-- /GPU/hr from $0.77

Heads up: A provider's own page may quote a different figure, for example on tax, region or a promotion. A monthly-only plan shows a derived hourly rate. Medians are across providers, one vote each, so a large catalog does not outweigh a small one. No median for reserved on the Gaudi2 and spot on the P100: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
