Price comparison

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

Billing	A10	A100	Difference
On-demand	$1.42 /GPU/hr from $0.23	$1.80 /GPU/hr from $0.40	21% cheaper on A10
Reserved	$1.31 /GPU/hr from $0.21 (1 mo)	$1.49 /GPU/hr from $0.52 (1 mo)	12% cheaper on A10
Spot	-- /GPU/hr from $0.59	$1.08 /GPU/hr from $0.17

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 spot on the A10: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
