Perfect for exposing APIs, web apps, Jupyter notebooks, or any other service.

Fair Use Policy

Unmetered access is for interactive AI/ML work:

  • Development, Jupyter notebooks, research
  • Speech recognition (Whisper), embeddings

Not permitted:

  • Sustained 24/7 max CPU/GPU load
  • Cryptocurrency mining
  • Unattended batch processing for days

Note: For AI/ML workloads. Not for gaming, video streaming, or NVENC/ffmpeg acceleration.

See full Terms of Service for details.

Important: Service Interruptions

We shop for the lowest-cost hosting, which may be interrupted without notice

  • There may be downtime while we find new capacity
  • Your files are safe on persistent storage
  • Just reconnect when the server is back
  • Save your work frequently!

Tips

  • Save your work frequently - sessions can be interrupted anytime
  • Your files persist even when stopped
  • Stop your desktop when not in use to free resources for others
  • Use public ports to expose web services and APIs
