Public list prices checked 2026-09-04." url: https://powergpu.ai/alternatives/latitude-sh last_modified: 2026-09-14T11:04:20+00:00 prices_as_of: 2026-09-14 site: PowerGPU (powergpu.ai) --- Alternative · prices checked 2026-09-04 # Latitude.sh alternative: same NVIDIA GPUs, fixed prices 30% under the market Latitude.sh (formerly Maxihost, a São Paulo hosting company founded in 2001 that moved to an all-bare-metal model in 2018 and rebranded in August 2022) sells single-tenant bare metal GPU servers with both hourly and monthly billing available on the same plan, across roughly 25 locations spanning North and South America, Europe and Asia-Pacific. The current GPU line-up on the public pricing page is three plans: a single H100 80 GB, an 8-way RTX PRO 6000 (Server Edition) node, and an 8-way HGX B300 node. An L40S plan was announced on Latitude's own changelog in the past but is not listed on the pricing page as of the date checked. 4 min read Updated 2026-09-14 (PowerGPU prices live from the sheet) ## Latitude.sh vs PowerGPU at a glance Latitude.sh Bare metal GPU by the hour or the month: H100, RTX PRO 6000, HGX B300 across the Americas, Europe and Asia PowerGPU Fixed prices at market median × 0.70, crypto only, verified datacenters | | Latitude.sh | PowerGPU | | --- | --- | --- | | Billing | Hourly or monthly, chosen per server; monthly is 30% off the hourly-equivalent rate, yearly is 50% off | Per second, no minimum, price locked at deploy | | Payment | Card (automatic $5 verification hold, refunded in 7 days) or crypto — USDC on Solana or Ethereum | Crypto only — USDT (TRC-20/ERC-20), BTC, XMR, LTC, ETH, TRX, SOL | | Identity | Not published beyond payment-method verification | Email + password. No KYC, no card, no stored IP addresses | | Free credit | None published | None — every hour is ≥30% under the market median instead | | Cheaper tier | Reserved billing only — 30% off monthly, 50% off yearly versus the hourly rate; no interruptible/spot tier | Interruptible flat −50% (no auction) · reserved −35% (3+ months) | | Regions | Roughly 25 locations across the Americas, Europe and Asia-Pacific; GPU plan availability by location is not itemised on the pricing page | 32 regions on 5 continents, verified datacenters only | | Minimums | Whole server per plan — 1× H100, or 8× on the RTX PRO 6000 and B300 nodes | None — 1× to 8× GPUs at the same per-GPU price | | Storage | Fixed NVMe included per plan (2 to 4 drives); no separate GPU-attached volume product listed | $0.08/GB/month NVMe, volumes survive instances | | Egress | 20 TB outbound free per server per month, then $0.01/GB; inbound always free | $0.01/GB in and out, every region | | Access | Account dashboard and REST API; bare metal implies root access, not itemised on the pricing page | Containers or full KVM VMs, SSH, Jupyter, REST API, CLI, Python SDK | Latitude.sh column: as published on latitude.sh on 2026-09-04. Details change — verify before you decide. ## Latitude.sh vs PowerGPU prices, GPU by GPU Public on-demand list prices per GPU-hour on Latitude.sh's pricing page (2026-09-04) against PowerGPU's fixed rates today — every PowerGPU price is the public marketplace median × 0.70, rounded down, re-checked weekly. | GPU | Latitude.sh list | PowerGPU on-demand | PowerGPU interruptible | Difference | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [H100 PCIE](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/h100-pcie) (g3.h100.small, 1x H100 80 GB · $1,230/mo; PCIe inferred from the single-GPU packaging, not labelled by Latitude.sh) | $1.68 | **$1.867** | $0.933 | +11% on PowerGPU | | [RTX PRO 6000 S](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/rtx-pro-6000-s) (g4.rtx6kpro.large, 8x RTX PRO 6000 Server Edition, $24/hr node ÷ 8 · $17,520/mo node) | $3.00 | **$1.073** | $0.536 | −64% on PowerGPU | | [B300](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/b300) (g4.b300.large, 8x HGX B300, $64/hr node ÷ 8 · $46,720/mo node) | $8.00 | **$6.737** | $3.368 | −16% on PowerGPU | Configurations differ (node sizes, tiers, regions); the note beside each card says which Latitude.sh price is quoted. Negative differences mean Latitude.sh is cheaper on that card. ## When to stay with Latitude.sh - You want hourly and monthly servers side by side on one account and the option to flip a given server between the two. - A regional footprint this dense in Latin America specifically (Buenos Aires, Bogotá, Santiago, São Paulo ×2) matters more than raw region count elsewhere. - A 50%-off yearly commitment on a bare metal node fits your budgeting better than a rolling reserved discount. ## Why teams switch to PowerGPU - Price: the H100 is fixed at market median × 0.70 here versus $1.68/hr at Latitude.sh's g3.h100.small, and the RTX PRO 6000 gap is wider still ($3.00/GPU-hour on the 8-way node). - Single GPUs on every model, not just the H100: Latitude.sh's RTX PRO 6000 and B300 are 8-GPU-only nodes with no smaller size published. - Direct crypto settlement in USDT, BTC, XMR, LTC, ETH, TRX or SOL, instead of a card hold or a USDC-only crypto option. - 32 regions on five continents, each confirmed to carry the full GPU line-up, versus roughly 25 locations where GPU availability is not itemised per site. ## Switching from Latitude.sh: what maps to what | On Latitude.sh | On PowerGPU | | --- | --- | | g3.h100.small / g4.rtx6kpro.large / g4.b300.large | Instance, 1× to 8× GPUs at the same per-GPU price | | Hourly billing | Instance, per second, no minimum | | Monthly / yearly reserved billing (−30% / −50%) | Reserved instance, flat −35% from 3 months | | Fixed NVMe per plan | Instance disk plus volumes at $0.08/GB/month if more is needed | | Dashboard / REST API | powergpu dashboard / REST API / CLI | *the whole migration, from the shell* ``` pip install powergpu export POWERGPU_API_KEY=pg_live_… # console → API keys powergpu launch --gpu h100-pcie --template pytorch --disk 100 --volume data:/data # ✓ instance i-52ab77c1 running (24.1s) · $1.867/hr · per second powergpu stop i-52ab77c1 # billing ends this second ``` Data moves the boring way: rsync or rclone from your Latitude.sh 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 | Latitude.sh | PowerGPU | | --- | --- | --- | | 1× H100 PCIE, 730 hours on-demand | $1,226 | **$1,363** | | 1× H100 PCIE, 8 h/day × 20 days | $269 | **$299** | | Same 160 hours, PowerGPU interruptible | — | **$149** | | 500 GB of storage, one month | Fixed NVMe included per plan (2 to 4 drives); no separate GPU-attached volume product listed | $40 | Run your own schedule through the [cost calculator](https://powergpu.ai/calculator) — it adds storage and bandwidth and compares against the marketplace median. ## Latitude.sh alternative: FAQ **Is PowerGPU cheaper than Latitude.sh?** Yes on both published cards: Latitude.sh's g3.h100.small (1x H100 80 GB) is $1.68/hr and its g4.rtx6kpro.large (8x RTX PRO 6000) works out to $3.00/GPU-hour from its $24/hr node price (checked 2026-09-04); PowerGPU fixes both cards at the public market median × 0.70. **Does Latitude.sh still offer the L40S?** Not on its current pricing page: only the H100, RTX PRO 6000 and HGX B300 plans are listed as of 2026-09-04. Latitude's changelog announced L40S availability previously; treat any L40S price quoted for Latitude.sh elsewhere as unconfirmed. **Can I rent a single GPU instead of a full node?** For the H100, yes — g3.h100.small is already a 1-GPU server. For the RTX PRO 6000 and B300, Latitude.sh only lists 8-GPU nodes; PowerGPU rents both cards from 1× at the same per-GPU price, fixed at the market median × 0.70. --- Try the switch for the price of a coffee Top up $40 in USDT or Monero, deploy the same image you run on Latitude.sh, and benchmark it.
