Details change — verify before you decide. ## Jarvislabs vs PowerGPU prices, GPU by GPU Public on-demand list prices per GPU-hour on Jarvislabs's pricing page (2026-09-03) against PowerGPU's fixed rates today — every PowerGPU price is the public marketplace median × 0.70, rounded down, re-checked weekly. | GPU | Jarvislabs list | PowerGPU on-demand | PowerGPU interruptible | Difference | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [H200](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/h200) (SXM · spot up to −56%) | $3.99 | **$2.791** | $1.395 | −30% on PowerGPU | | [H100 SXM](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/h100-sxm) (spot up to −56%) | $2.69 | **$1.428** | $0.714 | −47% on PowerGPU | | [RTX PRO 6000 WS](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/rtx-pro-6000-ws) (RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell) | $1.89 | **$1.040** | $0.520 | −45% on PowerGPU | | [A100 SXM4](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/a100-sxm4) (80 GB) | $1.49 | **$0.560** | $0.280 | −62% on PowerGPU | | [L4](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/l4) | $0.44 | **$0.225** | $0.112 | −49% on PowerGPU | Configurations differ (node sizes, tiers, regions); the note beside each card says which Jarvislabs price is quoted. Negative differences mean Jarvislabs is cheaper on that card. ## When to stay with Jarvislabs - You are in India and need a local region with UPI payments. - Pause/resume of a single workstation is your main workflow and you like Jarvislabs' simple UI. ## Why teams switch to PowerGPU - Price: H100 SXM $2.69 and A100 80 GB $1.49 at Jarvislabs versus market median × 0.70 fixed here. - 32 regions on five continents, consumer cards (RTX 5090, 4090, 3090) and 76 models in total. - Crypto payments with no KYC, per-second billing, flat −50% interruptible instead of spot. ## Switching from Jarvislabs: what maps to what | On Jarvislabs | On PowerGPU | | --- | --- | | Instance (pause/resume) | Instance (stop keeps the disk, start resumes) | | Template | One of 37 templates or any image | | Spot instance | Interruptible instance, flat −50% | | Storage | Volume, $0.08/GB/month | *the whole migration, from the shell* ``` pip install powergpu export POWERGPU_API_KEY=pg_live_… # console → API keys powergpu launch --gpu h200 --template pytorch --disk 100 --volume data:/data # ✓ instance i-52ab77c1 running (24.1s) · $2.791/hr · per second powergpu stop i-52ab77c1 # billing ends this second ``` Data moves the boring way: rsync or rclone from your Jarvislabs machine to a PowerGPU [volume](https://powergpu.ai/products/volumes), which then mounts on every future instance in seconds. Templates for [PyTorch](https://powergpu.ai/templates/pytorch), [vLLM](https://powergpu.ai/templates/vllm), [ComfyUI](https://powergpu.ai/templates/comfyui) and [Ollama](https://powergpu.ai/templates/ollama) are official images; anything else runs from its OCI reference. ## A real month, costed | Scenario | Jarvislabs | PowerGPU | | --- | --- | --- | | 1× H200, 730 hours on-demand | $2,913 | **$2,037** | | 1× H200, 8 h/day × 20 days | $638 | **$447** | | Same 160 hours, PowerGPU interruptible | — | **$223** | | 500 GB of storage, one month | $0.10/GB/mo | $40 | Run your own schedule through the [cost calculator](https://powergpu.ai/calculator) — it adds storage and bandwidth and compares against the marketplace median. ## Jarvislabs alternative: FAQ **Is PowerGPU cheaper than Jarvislabs?** Yes on every overlapping card: Jarvislabs lists the H100 SXM at $2.69/hr and the A100 80 GB at $1.49/hr (checked 2026-09-03); PowerGPU fixes them at the public market median × 0.70, and its interruptible tier is a flat −50%. **Does PowerGPU support pause and resume?** Yes — stop an instance and GPU billing ends that second while the disk waits at $0.08/GB/month; start resumes on the same data. --- Try the switch for the price of a coffee Top up $40 in USDT or Monero, deploy the same image you run on Jarvislabs, and benchmark it.
