Provider Overview
Strengths & Best For
IO.NET is a decentralized GPU network aggregating idle compute from data centers, crypto miners, and consumer hardware — including H100 and A100 — at prices typically well below traditional on-demand GPU cloud providers. The marketplace model enables batch AI inference, LLM training, and distributed workloads at dramatically reduced cost for teams comfortable with variable hardware reliability. A compelling option for crypto-native teams and cost-sensitive developers who can tolerate the trade-offs of a decentralized GPU network.
- Very low prices on H100 and A100
- Large pool of available GPUs
- Decentralized resilience
- Crypto-native billing
Hostiko provides budget GPU hosting with RTX and A-series instances from Eastern European data centers, offering some of the most affordable on-demand GPU rental prices for AI, ML, and rendering workloads in the region. Flexible configurations and accessible pricing make it a practical option for Eastern European teams and budget-conscious developers who need GPU compute for experimentation and short-term training runs. A cost-effective GPU hosting option for teams in Ukraine and Eastern Europe.
