AI and LLM apps
Combine filters →Most AI applications are ordinary web applications with an unusual request shape: a call to a model API that takes seconds, a response streamed to the browser, and timeouts tuned accordingly. The expensive part is the model provider’s bill, not the hosting. Where a provider means GPUs rather than that, it is a different product entirely — those are listed under GPU cloud.

Who is the best host for AI and LLM apps?
We can't tell from here. A host that suits a small agency site can be wrong for an API with users in Asia and Europe. The list is alphabetical and nobody paid for a place on it. The guide covers what to compare.
