Price comparison

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

Billing	GTX 1080 Ti	H100
On-demand	-- /GPU/hr from $0.04	$3.38 /GPU/hr from $1.30
Reserved	-- /GPU/hr from $0.04 (1 mo)	$3.12 /GPU/hr from $1.53 (1 mo)
Spot	-- /GPU/hr from $0.02	$2.00 /GPU/hr from $0.36

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 on-demand, reserved and spot on the GTX 1080 Ti: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
