A practical brief

Answer in brief

Write the brief before you compare anything.

It turns an open search into a short list you can check in an afternoon.

In 2026 the H100 is the older card: the H200, B200 and B300 are the newer ones. On 12 Nov 2026, the median listed price per GPU-hour was $3.90 for the H100, $5.40 for the H200, $8.34 for the B200 and $9.50 for the B300. Price the H100 beside them, then check the smallest rental and whether it can be started today.

The brief

Copy these lines and fill each one in. Leave nothing as “depends”: a line you cannot fill is the first thing to find out.

  1. Workload:Training, fine-tuning, inference or a batch job, and the model it runs.
  2. GPU model:The model you need, and the next one down that would also do.
  3. How many GPUs:The count you need at once. Note whether one machine must hold them all.
  4. Hours:Hours per day and days per month. This decides on demand against a term.
  5. Start date:Today, this week or a fixed date.
  6. Region:Where the data may be processed, if that is fixed.
  7. Billing unit:By the second, the minute or the hour, and whether boot time may be billed.
  8. Ceiling per GPU-hour:The most you will pay per GPU-hour for the smallest rental you can take.
  9. Storage and transfer:How much data stays between runs and how much leaves the provider.

How to use it

Send the same brief to every option you consider, or hold each one against it yourself. An option that cannot answer a line has answered it.

Keep the date on it. A brief filled in this week and a price read last month do not belong on the same page.
