What it does
Vast.ai is a GPU compute platform for model training, fine-tuning and inference. Users search available machines by GPU, memory, price and other requirements, then launch them through the console, CLI, Python SDK or REST API. The platform also offers serverless model endpoints and dedicated clusters for larger training workloads.
Rates depend on available supply and configuration. On-demand instances, interruptible capacity and longer reservations have different availability and commitment terms. Vast.ai is useful for teams comparing GPU capacity or provisioning it programmatically. Check the full offer and storage requirements before launch, and use checkpointing when an interruptible job needs to recover from reclamation.
