How we sort results
Default ranking
Our algorithm weighs five factors to find the most relevant matches for you:
- Price: We blend total hourly price with price-per-GPU to balance affordability and value.
- Specs: We favor offers with higher CPU, RAM, and GPU Memory.
- Billing: We favor on-demand billing for simplicity and flexibility over spot instances, reservations, and custom quotes.
- Location: We blend both datacenter proximity and provider HQ location. Datacenter location matters for latency, while HQ location matters for compliance and support.
- Provider diversity: Each time a provider appears in the list, their subsequent offerings are ranked a little lower, so one provider's offerings don't crowd out the top positions.
Sorting and filtering
Click any column header to sort by that column. Use the filters above the table to narrow results by billing type, GPU count, vCPUs, or RAM. Custom sorting resets the default relevance ranking.
Transparency and funding
Ads and sponsors: Any paid placements are fixed at the top and clearly labeled as sponsored content.
Affiliates: Any affiliate links will be indicated to you as well. We may earn a commission if you click them, but this never influences the ranking order.
