Features Comparison

Jarvis Labs

Instant GPU Access
Get access to powerful GPUs instantly with zero setup complexity
Fast Boot Times
Boot templates in 1.8 seconds or VMs in under 90 seconds
Per-minute Billing
Pay-as-you-go with per-minute billing and no upfront commitments
CLI & Python SDK
Comprehensive command-line and Python SDK with agent integration for Claude Code, Cursor, and other AI coding agents
Multi-GPU Scaling
Scale up to 8 GPUs per instance for demanding workloads
Instance Management
Easy pause, resume, and delete functionality for cost optimization

Salad Cloud

Community Cloud
On-demand pool of idle consumer GPUs with nodes in 190+ countries, deployed onto through Salad Container Engine.
Salad Container Engine
Managed orchestration that schedules Docker containers onto nodes it does not control, isolates them behind a hypervisor, streams logs, and reallocates work when a node disappears.
Priority Tiers
High, Medium, Low, and Lowest tiers price the same GPU class differently so a workload can trade preemption risk for cost; High is never preempted by other workloads.
Salad Dedicated
Reserved bare metal and virtual machines on contract, starting with RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell, quoted per allocation and term.
Private Cloud
Salad's orchestration stack licensed per deployment on hardware you already own, pooling idle workstation and server GPUs into a private OpenAI-compatible token service.
Managed APIs and Tooling
AI Gateway (an OpenAI-compatible endpoint for open-weight models, in closed beta), Transcription API, Recipes deployment templates, S4 temporary storage, Gateway Service residential IPs, and a Virtual Kubelet for Kubernetes.

Pros & Cons

Jarvis Labs

Advantages

Quick setup - get started in less than 5 minutes
Per-minute billing for precise cost control
Fast boot times (templates in 1.8s, VMs under 90s)
Agent-native support for Claude Code, Cursor, and AI coding tools

Considerations

Primarily focused on India and EU regions
Newer player compared to established cloud giants
Large clusters, reserved capacity and committed pricing go through sales rather than self-service

Salad Cloud

Advantages

Aggregating idle consumer hardware gives some of the lowest published per-GPU-hour rates available
Per-second billing with no contracts or minimums; allocation, image download, and cold start are not billed
vCPU and RAM are included with every GPU class at no additional charge
Four priority tiers make interruptibility an explicit, priced choice per container group

Considerations

On-demand catalog is consumer RTX GPUs only — data center accelerators are not offered outside the contracted Dedicated product
Published GPU classes top out at 32 GB of VRAM, limiting the size of a model that fits on a single GPU
Nodes are individually owned machines that can disconnect at any time, so workloads must be stateless or retryable

Compute Services

Jarvis Labs

GPU Instances

On-demand GPU instances with various configuration options

Pre-configured templates for popular ML frameworks
Scalable GPU resources

Templates

Pre-built environments for instant deployment

Boot in 1.8 seconds
Persistent storage across stop/start

Virtual Machines

Full root access VMs for custom configurations

Root SSH access from minute one
Custom Docker/Kubernetes support

Salad Cloud

Salad Container Engine on Community Cloud

On-demand container orchestration across the distributed pool of idle consumer GPUs, with more than 40 GPU classes selectable by priority tier.

Salad Dedicated

Reserved bare metal and virtual machines on contract, separate from the on-demand community pool.

CPU-only container groups

Container groups with no GPU attached, billed per vCPU-hour and per GB of RAM per hour, running at the Lowest priority tier.

Pricing Options

Jarvis Labs

On-Demand Instances

Per-minute billing with no minimum commitments and instant provisioning

Spot Instances

Use spare capacity with significant discounts up to 56% off on-demand pricing

Savings Plans

Discounted rates for one-month and longer commitments, arranged through sales

Volume and Reserved Capacity

Custom quotes through sales for 25+ GPUs, reserved capacity and H200 InfiniBand clusters

Model API Token Pricing

Token Factory models billed per million input, cached input and output tokens, with rates set per model

Salad Cloud

Per-second on-demand billing

Published per-GPU-hour rates billed by the second for the time each replica spends running; allocation, image download, and cold start are not charged, and vCPU and RAM are included.

Priority tiers

High, Medium, Low, and Lowest tiers price each GPU class differently - lower tiers cost less and are more interruptible, with Lowest intended for retryable batch work.

CPU-only container groups

Billed per vCPU-hour plus per GB of RAM per hour for container groups that need no GPU.

Volume discounts

Large deployments, long-running jobs, and committed spend are priced below list by sales.

Salad Dedicated contracts

Reserved bare metal and virtual machines quoted separately per allocation and term.

Private Cloud licensing

Licensed per deployment to run the orchestration stack on hardware you already own.

Get Started

1
Create a SaladCloud account
Sign up at portal.salad.com to reach the dashboard, API keys, and deployment tools.
2
Pick a GPU class and priority tier
Compare published per-GPU-hour rates and live availability on the pricing page, then choose the tier that matches how interruptible the workload is.
3
Deploy a container group
Supply a Docker image, CPU/memory/GPU resources, and a replica count through the portal or the public API; Recipes provide ready-made templates for popular open models.
4
Monitor and scale
Track replicas in the portal and adjust GPU class, priority, or replica count; the container engine reallocates work as nodes join and leave the network.
5
Talk to sales for reserved or volume capacity
Large deployments, committed spend, and Salad Dedicated allocations are quoted directly rather than bought self-service.
