Billing and Pricing
Compute works on a pre-paid model. You pay for credits (denominated in euros) and each instance is billed per second.
You must have at least one hour's worth of time in your balance to rent an instance at your specified configuration. If your balance is insufficient, consider depositing additional funds or lowering your GPU/instance requirements.
There is no additional cost beyond the allocated space assigned to your instance. All storage in on-demand instances is NVMe SSDs. If you need more storage, reach out to us on Discord.
Similar to storage billing, there is no additional cost beyond the allocated space. Extra storage options will be available later.
Running instances debit from your credit balance per second. If you run out of credits, your instances will be automatically terminated. Instances are pre-emptively terminated when you have 5 minutes of run time remaining, so please plan accordingly.
How it works
