Who runs this website
AI Hosting Index is run from Cyprus, an EU country, by George to write: your full name or company name and postal address.
You can reach us through our contact page or by e-mail at .
What this website is
AI Hosting Index compares rented servers, GPUs, model APIs and other AI hosting services, from small to large. We explain how they work, check their prices every week and test some of them ourselves.
How we make money
Every provider we list runs an affiliate, referral or promo-code programme. We are joining these programmes. Once we are a member of its programme, a provider may pay us a commission when you buy through our links or use our code. You do not pay more because of it.
Commission never changes the order of our tables: the order comes only from the rules set out on How we rank.
The box marked Ad shows an offer we choose ourselves, usually the one that earns us the most. It sits outside our ranked tables and never changes them.
How we rank
The order of the plans in our tables comes only from our published ranking rules. We score each plan from 0 to 10 on each of the criteria below. The scores rest on the provider's own pages, our weekly price records and, once we have run them, George's own dated tests. A plan's total is the weighted average of its scores, so the criteria with more points count for more. The full method is on How we rank.
Where a criterion compares prices, we compare what a plan costs for a month. A plan priced by the hour counts as running all month, so its hourly price is multiplied by 730 hours.
Commission plays no part in the ranking. Whether a provider pays us, and how much, never changes a score, a total or an order. Nobody can move a plan up by hand.
The box marked Ad is not part of the ranking. It sits outside our ranked tables and never changes them.
These are our ranking criteria and the weight of each:
| Criterion | Scored for | Weight | How we score it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price for what you get | Each plan | 30 points | The plan's current price compared with plans of the same size and kind that we cover. 10 = the lowest price for what it offers in its size; 0 = the highest. |
| Clear and complete pricing | Each provider | 15 points | Whether the provider's own pages state the price, the currency, whether VAT is included, the price after any promotion and any minimum term. 10 = all of them, easy to find. |
| Pay only for what you use | Each plan | 15 points | How flexible the billing is. Billing by the second, minute or hour, or month to month with no long commitment, scores higher than long prepaid terms. |
| Ready for the job | Each plan | 15 points | One-click installs or ready templates for what the plan is used for (for example n8n, Ollama or ComfyUI), documented on the provider's own pages. |
| Choice of data centres | Each provider | 10 points | How many data-centre locations we could confirm from the provider's own pages, and whether they include the EU and the US. |
| Our own test | Each plan | 15 points | The result of our own dated test: how long the set-up took, how it ran and what went wrong. Plans we have not tested yet score 0 here. |
| Total | 100 points |
Prices and offers
Every price and offer on this website shows the date we last checked it. Providers can change their prices and offers at any time, and what the provider's own website says when you buy is what counts. Check the price and the conditions there before you pay.
General information, not advice
Our articles, comparisons and test results are general information. They are not legal, financial, tax or other professional advice. Choose a service that fits your own needs, and ask a professional where you need one.
Links to other websites
We link to providers' websites and to the sources of our facts. We do not run those websites, and their own terms and privacy policies apply when you use them.

Liability and the law that applies
We check our facts carefully, but we cannot promise that every detail is complete, correct or up to date when you read it.
Our pages are information, not advice. You decide which service to use, and the provider's own terms govern what you buy from it. We are not liable for any loss that comes from using the information on this website. This limit does not apply where the law forbids it, for example to deliberate wrongdoing or gross negligence.
These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Cyprus. Nothing in them takes away the rights you have as a consumer under the law of the country where you live.
