Beam vs Omega Gradient

Only charged when your code runs, no charges for cold starts or server spin-up

Memory snapshots and GPU checkpoint restore bring containers back in seconds, which Beam reports as up to 35x faster than a traditional cold boot

Run untrusted code safely in isolated environments for AI agents and code interpreters

Pause and resume sessions while maintaining filesystem, memory, and running processes

Scale to zero when idle, burst to thousands of containers in seconds

Bring your own Docker images for full environment control, including running the Docker daemon inside containers

Catalog of GPU listings from multiple suppliers, deployable as containers, VMs, or bare metal, with per-listing region, fabric (PCIe, SXM, NVLink), and boot-time details

Request-based sourcing for reserved capacity, matching workload requirements against a tracked supplier network with responses targeted within 24 hours

Monitors suppliers and public price sources across regions, publishing a cloud GPU price index and supplier pricing reports for benchmarking before commitment

Listings show a single all-in hourly price with per-GPU breakdowns; billing is prepaid from credits and accrues per hour only while an instance exists

Sources capacity from many independent suppliers rather than operating its own data centers, comparing options across price, region, and hardware configuration
