From a blank console to a running GPU
No cluster to provision, no ticket to file, no capacity to reserve ahead of time. Four steps, and the fourth one is your own work.
Four steps
- 1Create an account and a workspace, then add credit. Sign-up promotional credit covers serverless inference; GPU pods run on paid credit.
- 2Choose a template — JupyterLab, ComfyUI, vLLM, Unsloth and the rest — or point at your own container image.
- 3Size the pod: GPU model and count, vCPU and RAM per GPU, and a volume if the data has to survive the pod.
- 4Confirm. HTTPS, SSH and private networking are configured while the pod comes up, and you connect and start working.
What happens between confirm and connect
- 01
Hosts are ranked, not picked at random
Eligible machines are scored: exact fit first, then lifetime uptime, then measured bandwidth, then CPU and memory generation, with disk speed as the last tiebreaker. A one-GPU request goes to a one-GPU machine so the eight-GPU box stays free for a job that needs it.
- 02
Every host passed a stress test to be here
Machines are verified at onboarding and re-tested automatically after a GPU, CPU or motherboard change, or an unclean shutdown. A machine is unlisted while that runs.
- 03
The pod stays where it was placed
Hardware is pinned: to move to a different GPU, save your image or data to a volume and recreate the pod. That is also why a volume is the right home for anything you would hate to lose.
A pod, or an endpoint
The same fleet underneath. The difference is how much of it you want to hold.
| GPU Pod | Serverless | |
|---|---|---|
| You get | A whole GPU and a shell | An HTTPS endpoint |
| You manage | The environment inside the pod | Nothing — replicas are placed for you |
| Billed | Per minute of pod runtime | Per GPU-hour of running replicas |
| Reach for it when | Training, rendering, anything interactive | Serving a model to an application |
Pick a card and start the pod
Sign up, choose the GPU, and the pod is yours in under two minutes. It bills by the hour and stops when you stop it.
