GPU cloud
Combine filters →Three ways to put your own model on someone else’s GPU, and each record says which it sells. GPU instances are servers with a card in them, virtual or dedicated, and everything above the driver is yours, including the bill while the machine sits idle. Serverless GPU runs your container only while requests arrive, at the price of a cold start. Managed inference takes the weights, yours or from Hugging Face, and hands back an endpoint. A token API over the provider’s own models does not count here: the model there is theirs. An application that only calls a model belongs under AI apps.
58 providers rent out GPUs to run the customer's own models, listed alphabetically. Across 51 countries.

What is a neocloud?
The industry name for a cloud company built around renting GPUs, as distinct from AWS, Google Cloud and Azure, which sell GPUs beside everything else. Neoclouds are listed here like any other GPU cloud, with no filter of their own: the GPU field on each record says whether it sells instances, serverless GPU or managed inference.
Do I need a GPU cloud to use an AI model?
Only to run a model yourself. An app that calls a hosted model over an API needs no GPU, and an ordinary web app host will do. GPU clouds rent accelerators for training, fine-tuning or serving model weights, usually by the hour.
Who is the best GPU cloud provider?
We don't know. A static portfolio and a busy shop need different things from a host, and so do a freelancer and an agency with forty client sites. Nobody pays to be listed here and the order is alphabetical. The guide covers what to compare.
