# GPUBank vs JarvisLabs

> JarvisLabs is a bootstrapped GPU cloud from New Delhi that rents 1 to 8 NVIDIA GPUs per instance, as managed containers or root VMs, from two regions in India. Its on-demand H100 SXM costs $2.69 per GPU-hour today and rises to $3.49 on 5 October 2026; GPUBank charges $1.85. JarvisLabs adds serverless inference and InfiniBand clusters; GPUBank bills by the second, includes local NVMe in the GPU rate, and runs in Europe, the US and Singapore.

- JarvisLabs: https://jarvislabs.ai, headquartered in New Delhi, India
- GPUBank: https://gpubank.io, GPU cloud billed per second at an all-in hourly price (vCPU, RAM, NVMe, one IPv4 and traffic included), prepaid balance topped up in crypto.

## Verdict

**Serverless, clusters and small GPUs at JarvisLabs. Lower prices and four regions outside India at GPUBank.**

JarvisLabs suits teams in India that want per-minute containers, INR invoices with GST, serverless endpoints and a self-serve H200 InfiniBand cluster. For the three GPUs both of us rent, GPUBank costs 31 to 39 % less per GPU-hour, and the gap widens when JarvisLabs raises its H100, H200 and RTX PRO 6000 rates on 5 October 2026. JarvisLabs bills disk on top of the GPU rate at $0.10 per GB-month and deletes instances and data at once if the balance goes negative. GPUBank bills by the second, charges $0.03 per GB-month for a stopped disk and takes crypto instead of cards.

Score over 28 points: GPUBank ahead on 13, even on 10, JarvisLabs ahead on 5.
