GPUAlpha

Compute market intelligence

The benchmark for GPU compute pricing

GPUAlpha aggregates rental GPU pricing from cloud marketplaces, builds weighted indices, and tracks historical trends — so infrastructure teams, providers, and analysts can plan with real market data instead of guesswork.

Why GPU pricing needs an index

Cloud GPU rental prices change hourly across dozens of providers. A single H100 spot listing can differ by 40% between marketplaces. Without aggregation, teams overpay, under-budget, or miss shifts in the compute market entirely.

GPUAlpha collects spot and on-demand rates, normalizes them by model and provider, and publishes indices and history so you can answer: what does compute cost right now, and where is it heading?
