Reserve GPU Capacity

Find dedicated data-center GPU servers reserved for you by the month, send one request, and agree the terms in one conversation with the owner and Paralon.

Reserved capacity is a set of servers kept for you alone for an agreed period, usually a month or more, instead of being rented by the minute to whoever comes first. It comes from data centers and companies that run their own GPU servers and list them on the capacity directory.

Need a GPU today, by the minute and without a contract? That is Rent a GPU.

1. Find capacity

Open Reserved GPU capacity. You can browse:

  • By GPU: GB300, B300, GB200, B200, H200, H100, A100 and RTX PRO 6000 each have their own page, with what the model is good for and every listing of it. Owners can also list other models.
  • By location: one page per country with capacity in it.
  • By owner: each company has a page with all of its listings.

Every company and every listing is reviewed by Paralon before it is published.

2. Read the listing

A listing is one server shape in one place. It shows:

FieldWhat it means
ServersHow many servers, and how many GPUs in each
LocationCountry, and city when the owner gives it
Price fromThe owner's starting price per GPU-hour. The final price depends on how many servers you take, for how long, and when you start
Minimum termThe shortest reservation the owner accepts, or no minimum
Down paymentHow many months the owner asks to be paid before the reservation starts, or none
Setup feeA one-time fee, when the owner has one
AvailableNow, or the date the servers are free from
InterconnectHow the GPUs and servers are connected, when the owner gives it

The terms are the owner's. Some ask for a minimum term and a down payment, some for neither; you see which before you ask.

3. Send a request

Press Request this capacity on the listing, or Tell us what you need on the directory if nothing listed fits. You need to be signed in: with Google, GitHub or an email code.

  • The request goes out from your account's email address; it cannot be changed in the form.
  • Say what you will run and from when, in at least 30 characters, and optionally how many GPUs and for how many months.
  • One open request per listing: if you already have a conversation about it, the form takes you there.
  • Up to 3 requests a day per account.

Your name, email, company and request are shared with the owner of that capacity and with Paralon.

4. Agree it in the conversation

The request opens one conversation with three parties: you, the owner and the Paralon team. Find it in Messages → Capacity deals.

  • Everyone in it gets an email and a notification for each new message; unread messages count on the Messages menu entry.
  • The owner moves the deal along: New, In discussion, Agreed, Live, or Closed.
  • You can close your request at any time with Close request.

Once the terms are agreed, the deal runs through Paralon: the servers are set aside for you, and access, metering, payments and invoicing go through us.

Questions

Are the prices final? No. They are where the owner starts; the conversation is where the price for your servers and your term is agreed.

Can I ask for something that is not listed? Yes. Use Tell us what you need on the directory: the GPU model, how many, where, for how long and what will run on it.

What if the owner deletes their company? Your conversation stays, with a note that it was closed, and you are told by email.
