Visit Paperspace

Paperspace is a cloud computing platform for developing, training, and deploying AI and machine learning models. It provides GPU compute on demand, along with cloud-hosted desktops, 3D workstations, and gaming rigs, helping individuals and organizations run accelerated workloads without managing their own servers. Paperspace is now part of DigitalOcean.

The platform includes Notebooks for exploring data and building models, Machines for GPU-accelerated workloads, Deployments for serving models as API endpoints, and Workflows (beta) for automating ML tasks. Developer tools include an open-source CLI, a RESTful API, and a Terraform provider. Management features cover teams, permissions, activity tracking, and resource utilization. Security features include centralized visibility, activity monitoring, and historical logging.

Paperspace is aimed at developers, data scientists, researchers, teams, and organizations. Pricing includes a free plan with limited storage and basic instances, paid individual plans with additional storage and access to higher-end instances, and team plans billed per user with usage-based compute costs. Enterprise options include private clusters, on-premise or hybrid deployments, and custom plans.
