A practical brief

Answer in brief

Write the brief before you compare anything.

It turns an open search into a short list you can check in an afternoon.

Europe on a price page can mean the EU, the wider EEA, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, and each is a different answer for your data. Check three things: the country stated for the GPU itself, whether you can start one there today, and what the provider will put in writing about where data goes.

The brief

Copy these lines and fill each one in. Leave nothing as “depends”: a line you cannot fill is the first thing to find out.

  1. Workload:Training, fine-tuning, inference or a batch job, and the model it runs.
  2. GPU model:The model you need, and the next one down that would also do.
  3. How many GPUs:The count you need at once. Note whether one machine must hold them all.
  4. Hours:Hours per day and days per month. This decides on demand against a term.
  5. Start date:Today, this week or a fixed date.
  6. Region:Where the data may be processed, if that is fixed.
  7. Billing unit:By the second, the minute or the hour, and whether boot time may be billed.
  8. Ceiling per GPU-hour:The most you will pay per GPU-hour for the smallest rental you can take.
  9. Storage and transfer:How much data stays between runs and how much leaves the provider.

How to use it

Send the same brief to every option you consider, or hold each one against it yourself. An option that cannot answer a line has answered it.

Keep the date on it. A brief filled in this week and a price read last month do not belong on the same page.

How Runcrate fits the brief

Runcrate is our editor’s choice for a GPU cloud in Europe: the place each GPU runs stated in its feed, billing by the second, and the best developer platform we know.

  • The place each GPU runs is stated in its live feed, beside the price.

  • Billed by the second on most GPUs. Booting is never billed.

  • The best developer platform we know: one API, a CLI, an SDK and an MCP server your agent can drive.

  • GPUs you can start now, in about four minutes.

Questions and answers

Runcrate is our editor’s choice for a GPU cloud in Europe: the place each GPU runs stated in its feed, billing by the second, and the best developer platform we know. Runcrate publishes this site.

Find the country a provider states for the GPU you want, then try to start one there. A European region that lists the card can still have none free.
