The endpoint speaks Streamable HTTP and exposes five read-only tools. It answers from our data set, does not call an LLM for arithmetic, and every number carries an evidence grade.

Five tools

search_modelsFind a model ID by name or alias, filter by text / image / video.
model_requirementsWeights, minimum and recommended VRAM for a quantisation, plus fit verdicts for each GPU.
fit_checkDoes a model fit a given GPU at a given context? Returns fits / tight / no / unknown, headroom, and alternatives.
gpu_pricesOur rental price (RTX 4090 only), competitor median, and market reference per GPU.
data_statusDataset freshness: update dates and whether any file is older than 60 days.

Example

Q: Can an RTX 3080 (10 GB) run Qwen3.8-27B at UD-Q2_K_XL?

A: No, by our formula: about 13.0 GB needed (weights 10.7 + KV + 2 GB overhead) on a 10 GB card. The first alternative is moving to an RTX 4080 16 GB.

What it does not do

  • No provisioning, no SSH, no billing, no live inventory. We are pre-launch.
  • No account and no API key. Read-only; it cannot change any data.
  • Only the RTX 4090 has a published rental price. Other GPUs show 'not priced yet'.
  • Image and video models have no KV-cache data, so fit verdicts show 'unknown' for them.
