- For
- AI image and video practitioners needing lower-cost GPU hours
- Worth noticing
- Its $0.15 queued tier can be interrupted and resumed; isolation is explicitly a launch gate, not yet live.
Field notes
The form collects workload details including model or workflow, minimum VRAM, monthly GPU hours, and preferred GPU models, then says requests are reviewed by hand. The page's price comparison is dated 2026-09-16 and uses competitor medians; the operator describes cheaper electricity as a hypothesis, not a proven margin. It also cautions beta users against sending unreleased client material while job isolation remains unavailable.
