Sign up and launch,
rent GPUs by the minute

Glows.ai is KONST's GPU cloud platform partner, and its compute comes from data centers that KONST built or operates under contract. Register online and choose an instance type to launch an instance. The operating system, drivers, and frameworks are already set up, so you do not need to build your own data center or environment. Instances are billed by the minute, billing stops when you shut down, and there is no monthly fee or minimum usage.

SOLUTION | KONST's approach

Set up GPUs by use: development, team sharing, online inference

On-demand cloud launches single-machine or multi-GPU instances, suited to development and short training runs. A virtualized cluster pools nodes into a resource pool that a team shares. Inference service comes in shared and dedicated types, for latency-sensitive online services.

Interactive development and short training runs

For experiment environments you start and stop at will: launch single-machine or multi-GPU instances on demand, and run as soon as you choose an instance type.

Long training runs shared by a team

When several people compete for the same GPUs, multiple nodes are combined into a schedulable resource pool that the team allocates flexibly.

Online inference

For latency-sensitive traffic that cannot be interrupted: the shared type is billed by the minute, and the dedicated type reserves fixed resources.

FEATURE | Service scope and specifications

Launch and start training right away

No need to build a data center or environment. Choose an instance type and run. Instances are billed by the minute, and billing stops at shutdown.

Ready on launch

The operating system, drivers, and frameworks are already set up. Sign up, choose an instance type, and start running.

Per-minute billing

No monthly fee, no minimum usage commitment, and billing stops at shutdown.

No rebuild when changing instance types

Data is mounted at launch and kept after shutdown, and a snapshot can be restored to a new instance.

FEATURE | Service scope and specifications

Data persists, and changing instance types needs no environment rebuild

Data and environments do not disappear with the instance lifecycle. After changing instance types, an interruption, or a restart, you can continue from the previous state. Models and private data are stored separately.

Data persists after shutdown

Data is mounted at launch and kept after shutdown, so you do not need to upload it again each time.

Environment snapshot save and restore

A snapshot saves the full state of the environment, so you can continue directly after changing instance types or an interruption.

Public access · Private storage

Public models and datasets are available directly. Private data is stored in your personal account space, and a high-performance storage service is available for large volumes.

FEATURE | Service scope and specifications

Self-service online launch, billed by actual usage

Register online to choose an instance type and launch an instance yourself, with no contract required. Billing is by the minute and stops at shutdown, with no monthly fee or minimum usage. You top up first and usage is deducted from the balance, and spending can be checked in real time.

BENEFIT | Benefits

Switch to a high-end GPU and
training time falls from 8.5 hours to 70 minutes

The unit price is higher, but run time drops sharply, so total spend under per-minute billing falls and the time saved goes straight into the next round of experiments.

PRICE | Pricing and fees

Centralized team top-ups, with credits allocated by role

One account manages multiple members. Credits are topped up in one place and then allocated, so members do not each have to pay. Administrators can restrict which instance types and images members can use, so credits are not used on high-end GPUs.

FAQ | Common questions

FAQ

How are Glows.ai GPU cloud fees calculated?
Pricing is transparent. The platform supports H100, H200, and RTX5090, with per-minute billing and automatic scaling. Contact sales for details.
Are there special plans for schools or research institutions?
Yes. Credits, instance types, and teaching support in education plans are set according to the size of the institution. Contact the sales team to arrange one.
Do I have to rebuild my environment if I change instance types?
No rebuild is needed. Data is mounted when the instance launches and kept after shutdown, so you do not have to upload it again each time. A snapshot saves the full state of the environment and restores it to a new instance, so after you change instance types or after an interruption you can pick up your work directly.
Which GPU should I use for small models and for large models?
It depends on the size of the model and the data. For experimental small-model training, a workstation-class graphics card is enough. Large models with many parameters and multi-GPU parallel training need the memory capacity and interconnect bandwidth of high-end servers.
