Rows where TensorDock does not publish a price for that model are left blank rather than guessed. Spot prices are only shown when the provider publishes one.
What this comparison does — and does not — claim.
- What is compared
- One GPU, one hour, in US dollars, excluding storage, egress and taxes. Same GPU model on both sides, matched by the exact chip, not by marketing name.
- Where their prices come from
- tensordock.com (10) — the link is on every row. Recorded 15 September 2026.
- What is not compared
- Capacity, regions, network, support, interruption behaviour, billing granularity, egress fees, minimum commitments. We do not measure those on their side, so we do not assert anything about them.
- What we commit to on our side
- Per-minute billing, a 2-minute notice before a spot reclaim, disks that survive it, no egress fees, no minimum spend. All of it is on the pricing page.
- If a figure is wrong
- Prices change, and an index goes stale. Send us the link and we correct the row — that is cheaper for us than being wrong in public.
Switching, concretely
Run one job on ours
Add $40 of credit, launch the same workload, compare the invoice and the behaviour. Nothing renews.
Move the data, not the setup
No egress fees on our side; templates or your own image; a persistent disk keeps checkpoints between runs.
Keep both for a while
There is no commitment here, so there is no reason to cut anything over before you are satisfied.
About this comparison
Is this comparison up to date?
The prices attributed to TensorDock were recorded on 15 September 2026 from the source linked on each row. Published prices move; check theirs before you switch, and tell us if a figure here is wrong — we correct it.
Are you comparing the same thing?
Same GPU model, same unit: one GPU for one hour, in US dollars, excluding storage and taxes. What differs is everything we do not measure here — capacity, regions, support, network, how an interruption is handled. This table is about price, and says nothing else.
Why is your price lower?
We buy installed capacity rather than build it, we have no sales team, and every tier of every model is priced at or below 80% of the lowest published price we can find across 137 providers. The rule is enforced by the script that publishes the catalogue. How it is checked.
What do I lose by paying less?
On the spot tier: the guarantee of keeping the GPU. We can reclaim it with a 2-minute notice, and we publish the reclaim rate for every model. Our on-demand tier is never reclaimed and is still below the cheapest on-demand price we found.
