Monetize Your Idle GPU Capacity
Shadeform Spot turns your idle GPU hours into revenue. Onboard your nodes through our Flex VMs platform, put them up on Spot, and deploy them instantly for yourself when you need them.
List your nodes with a simple curl command
Spot is built on top of our Flex-VMs platform and follows the same simple enrollment process. Just run our curl command on your machine and follow the instructions.
Turn idle hours into revenue
When your nodes aren't in use, they're live and earning on our marketplace. When you need them back, you can instantly deploy them yourself or pull them off the platform entirely.
Secure by design
All end users of spot instances are contained on the guest VM and cannot access the host system. We do not pass any internal or private networking from the host machine into the guest VM.
Start listing from your terminal
Run one command on the machine you want to list. It checks the host, asks a few questions, and hands you a link to finish in the dashboard.
Run this on your node
Nothing is installed and nothing is registered until the checks pass and you confirm.
Questions about Spot?
Spot is discounted compute that can be pre-empted at any time. It suits checkpointed training, batch inference, evals, and other work than can pause and resume.
We can list any bare metal nodes on Spot. Spares you keep to meet your own SLAs, a partial build-out waiting on the rest of the hall, and nodes racked against a commitment that hasn't started yet. If it's sitting unused, it can earn on Spot.
No. Spot runs on a single-tenant infrastructure with full GPU passthrough, so each machine runs one customer's workload at a time. We monitor host health and rebuild each environment before it's listed again.
Spot instance users are confined to the guest VM and can’t access the host. Only Shadeform has host access, which it uses for VM management and monitoring, and it has no visibility into the guest VM. Apart from the public IPv4, no internal or private networking is passed from the host to the VM, so if the node has a private IP, the VM can’t reach it.
