Pros & Cons

gpu.ai

Advantages

Easy integration with multiple cloud providers
Flexibility in GPU selection
No idle costs for serverless models
Managed fine-tuning jobs available

Considerations

May require understanding of various cloud setups for optimal use
Limited information on dedicated support options

SwissGPU

Advantages

Dedicated bare-metal GPU and compute resources for each client, with no virtualization layer.
Secure SSH access, with all data and the OS permanently wiped at the end of a rental.
Local-like experience with ultra-low latency remote desktops.
Published hourly rates for every GPU configuration, with per-minute billing and no storage or network fees.

Considerations

Consumer and workstation GPUs only — no datacenter accelerators such as H100 or B200 for large-scale training.
Single location: all capacity is in Switzerland, which adds latency for users outside Europe.
Electricity is metered and billed on top of the hourly rate, so the listed rate is not the full cost.
