Features Comparison

Beam

Pay-per-millisecond Billing
Only charged when your code runs, no charges for cold starts or server spin-up
Sub-second Cold Starts
Memory snapshots and GPU checkpoint restore bring containers back in seconds, which Beam reports as up to 35x faster than a traditional cold boot
Secure Sandbox Environments
Run untrusted code safely in isolated environments for AI agents and code interpreters
Stateful, Persistent Runtimes
Pause and resume sessions while maintaining filesystem, memory, and running processes
Elastic GPU Scaling
Scale to zero when idle, burst to thousands of containers in seconds
Custom Docker Images
Bring your own Docker images for full environment control, including running the Docker daemon inside containers

Koyeb

Serverless GPU Instances
Per-second billing with scale-to-zero across the GPU catalog
Wide GPU Range
From RTX-4000-SFF-ADA and L4 through L40S, A100, H100, H200 and B200
Global Edge Deployment
Deploy applications close to users across multiple regions from a single push
Serverless Postgres
Managed Postgres billed by the second with scale-to-zero on inactivity
Sandboxes
Isolated environments for executing code and running AI agents on the same platform as inference workloads

Pros & Cons

Beam

Advantages

Pay-per-millisecond billing with no charges for cold starts
Ultrafast boot times with sub-second cold starts via memory snapshots
GPU selection spanning RTX 4090 through B200, plus InfiniBand cluster nodes
On-demand machines priced flat per machine, including vCPU, RAM, and NVMe storage

Considerations

Serverless GPUs other than the RTX 4090 require a committed-spend agreement
GPU container concurrency is capped on the lower plan tiers
Multi-node InfiniBand clusters are sales-only with no published pricing

Koyeb

Advantages

Per-second billing across the full GPU range
Multi-GPU configurations (2x, 4x, 8x) available on-demand
Serverless model removes idle-instance costs

Considerations

Smaller per-cluster scale than dedicated training neoclouds
Some GPU SKUs require requesting access
Long-running fixed-instance training is not the primary use case

Compute Services

Beam

Inference Endpoints

Deploy high-performance inference endpoints with custom models

Custom model hosting on GPU or CPU
