Aquanode
Build a GPU box once and keep it. Run it on any provider, pause it, and resume right where you left off.

Aquanode gives you setups: a GPU box you build once and keep. Your disk, your image, everything you installed. Run it on any provider, pause it, and resume right where you left off.
The GPU is rented. The setup is yours.
Why that split matters
Renting a GPU is easy. Keeping what you built on it is not. Every provider hands you a raw machine, and the moment you give that machine back, the environment you spent an afternoon assembling goes with it. So people leave boxes running they are not using, or they rebuild from scratch every morning.
A setup separates the two. The machine is disposable and billed by the second, only while it runs. The setup is durable, costs $0.02/GiB per month to hold, and can come back on a different card, at a different provider, in a different country.
Pause is the normal way to stop
A paused setup rents no machine, so the hourly charge stops completely. Syncing while you work is free, and you pay only to hold what the setup saved.
What you get
- One account across every provider. No separate consoles, no separate billing, no separate access rules. See live rates and availability on the Marketplace.
- Failover instead of errors. If the card you picked is taken while we are claiming it, we use another one that fits.
- Versions. Every save is numbered. Resuming one brings that exact state back on a new machine.
- Sharing. Send one saved version as a link. Whoever opens it gets their own copy, yours stays untouched.
- Auto-pause. Walk away and the setup saves itself, releases the machine, and stops the hourly charge.
- Endpoints. Put a stable callable address in front of a saved version, with hard caps on instances and spend.
- A CLI that does all of it.
