Managed AI compute · EU region

Compute you don't have to run.

You need somewhere to train and serve models. You don't need a cloud account, quotas, firewall rules, driver installs or an on-call rota. We take that part — you get an environment that's ready, and someone who answers when it isn't.

Talk to us
What this is

Most people who need a GPU don't need a cloud platform. They need it to work. Our first customer said it unprompted: far less overhead than dealing with subscriptions and access management. The machine isn't the value — everything you avoid is.

Levels

Three levels, by what you're actually doing.

We don't sell machine types. You pick the level of ambition; we pick and run the capacity that covers it — and change it underway if your needs do.

BenchExploring
24 GB memory class · start/stop on demand

You're trying something out. Smaller models, short runs, lots of starting and stopping. The environment stops itself when you're not using it, so you pay for work — not for idling.

WorkshopReal work
48 GB memory class · sustained runs

You're training or fine-tuning something that will be used. More memory, longer runs, and monitoring that catches a stall before you notice it yourself.

PlantProduction
Multi-card class · defined response time

Something has to stay up and answer. At that point it isn't about GPUs any more — it's uptime, accountability and someone to call. We define response times together.

The store

Your data doesn't have to die with the machine.

Most people need compute in bursts — three days now, maybe two weeks in the autumn. Without somewhere to leave your data, every pause means uploading everything again. The store is a room that stays put between engagements.

It outlives the environment

When the environment is deleted, the store remains. Come back in two weeks or four months and your datasets, models and results are exactly where you left them.

The next machine inherits everything

Moving from Bench to Workshop, or on to Plant, the store connects straight to the new environment. You copy nothing — and you don't pay for a machine sitting idle while you upload.

It costs a fraction

The store is around three and a half times cheaper per GB than the disk on the environment itself, because it doesn't have to sit ready for a GPU. Keeping data between engagements is cheap — it's leaving a machine running that's expensive.

Held in the same EU region as your environment. You can empty or delete it at any time, and the cost stops immediately.

Operations

The operations are the product.

Everything below actually happened to us, and we've engineered it away. That's why it's here — not because it looks good in a bullet list.

Memory protection from hour one

A customer ran the machine out of memory after two hours. The whole server froze, he was locked out and lost unsaved work. The cloud default has no swap — it goes straight from full to dead. Swap and a guard process are now set up from the start.

Instance types being retired

Cloud hardware has a lifespan. A machine type available today may be gone in two years, and an environment left stopped for a long time may suddenly refuse to start. The watchdog follows the notices and moves you across in good time — a stopped machine can be converted directly, and an image can be restored onto newer hardware. You get told it has been done, not handed a task.

The watchdog

That time, we spotted the freeze ourselves — the customer hadn't. Now the watchdog runs every quarter hour and checks health, whether login responds, and whether the address has changed. It fixes what it can fix itself and alerts us to the rest. The alert goes to us, not to you.

The address stays put

Without a static address the machine changes address on reboot, mid-incident. Static address from day one.

Capacity hunting

Regions fill up — we've been refused capacity more than once. Finding room in another region is our job, not your wait.

Stops when you're not using it

The environment shuts down when idle. For daytime work that halves the bill, and it's a saving you don't get renting a machine by the hour.

Nothing disappears unannounced

Environments have an expiry date. You get warned well before anything is deleted — not an email afterwards.

The operations automation is being built out and is set up per customer today. We don't promise more than we actually do.

Calculator

What does it cost?

Setup once, operations while the environment is yours, and usage at our cost price plus a 15 % administration charge. You don't pay a markup on compute.

Level
For how long

Choose freely — from one day to a year.

The environment powers down when unused. Recommended for anything but production.

Storage on the environment
GB

The price is 1.01 NOK per GB per month. Can be grown at any time without downtime, but not shrunk. Storage costs the same even when the environment is stopped — only deletion removes the cost. Large datasets belong in object storage instead; that's around three and a half times cheaper. We'll help you with that.

The store — data that stays after the environment is deleted
GB

Optional. 0.28 NOK per GB per month — around three and a half times cheaper than the environment disk, and the only thing that survives when the environment ends. Runs on month after month until you delete it.

Optional. 0.60 NOK per GB per month, counting only the space actually in use — not the whole disk. Means the next environment starts fully installed, and the setup fee falls away.

If you already have an image, the setup work is done. You don't pay for it twice.

This is an estimate, not a quote. What you actually pay depends on how much you use the environment, how much storage you need, and the exchange rate and capacity pricing in the period. We always send a concrete quote before anything starts.

Honest

When not to choose us.

We don't win on price, and we don't pretend to.

You want the cheapest hour

Specialist providers sell compute below our cost price. If you just need many hours as cheaply as possible, and have your own people to run it — use them.

You already have an operations team

With cloud skills in-house you'd be paying for something you already do. Then our role is advice, if anything — not operations.

You need many services, not one machine

If you need storage buckets, several environments and your own console access, the infrastructure work comes back. Then you should have your own cloud account — and we can help you set that up instead.

Questions
Where does it run?+

In the EU, and you'll know exactly which region before we start. That's the whole difference from the marketplaces, where the machine can sit anywhere with anyone — disqualifying if you handle personal data.

Do you have access to my data?+

The environment is set up with no links to our systems, with its own key pair and firewall group. We hold operational access so we can help you. If you'll process personal data, we sign a data processing agreement first.

What if the machine goes down?+

We notice and fix it. What response time we commit to is agreed concretely — we won't put a number here that isn't covered in your agreement.

Can I change level along the way?+

Yes. Needs change, which is exactly why you're not buying a machine type. We move you, and you pay infrastructure on actual usage.

Why are you more expensive than the cheapest?+

Because you're buying something else. With us you get a guaranteed EU region, a Norwegian company to invoice and hold accountable, and someone else doing setup, monitoring and fixes. If you don't need that, we're the wrong choice — see the section above.

How quickly can we start?+

The first environment was ready about ten minutes after it was ordered. Setup isn't the bottleneck — the clarifications around it are.
