Overview
What GpuToLease.ai is, what you get with a reservation, and how the pieces fit together.
GpuToLease.ai rents out whole, dedicated machines with large unified memory — Apple Mac Studio and NVIDIA DGX Spark — by the day. You pick the days on a calendar, pay upfront, and log in over SSH while your reservation is live. Nobody else uses the machine while it's yours, and it's wiped when your reservation ends.
What you get
- A physical machine to yourself. Not a virtual machine, not a slice of a GPU, not a queue. One reservation is one machine.
- Large unified memory. The CPU and GPU share one big, fast memory pool, so models that don't fit on a typical graphics card run comfortably. See Instance types.
- SSH access with your own key. Add your public key once; the machine is set up with it for every reservation. See SSH keys.
- An optional startup script that runs when the machine is ready — to install tools or download a model before you log in. See Startup scripts.
- Whole days in UTC. A daily reservation starts at 00:00 UTC on its first day and ends at 23:59 UTC on its last day.
How it works
- Create an account with your email address and verify it.
- Add an SSH public key in your dashboard (or on the way, from the reservation page).
- Reserve: choose a plan in the catalog, give your machine a name, pick your key and your days, then pay by card.
- Connect: when the reservation starts, your dashboard shows the SSH command. The machine is ready within about five minutes of the start.
- Copy your results off before the end. When the reservation ends, the machine is wiped.
The Quickstart walks through these steps in detail.
Good to know before you book
- Payment is upfront for the whole reservation, in euros, pounds or US dollars depending on your country. See Payment, currencies and VAT.
- Reservations can't be cancelled or moved once paid. See No cancellations.
- Everything is in UTC. Days, start and end times, and every time shown on the site and in emails.
- Nothing survives the end of a reservation. There are no backups. See Reservation lifecycle.
