Overview
Strengths & Best For
IO.NET is a decentralized GPU network aggregating idle compute from data centers, crypto miners, and consumer hardware — including H100 and A100 — at prices typically well below traditional on-demand GPU cloud providers. The marketplace model enables batch AI inference, LLM training, and distributed workloads at dramatically reduced cost for teams comfortable with variable hardware reliability. A compelling option for crypto-native teams and cost-sensitive developers who can tolerate the trade-offs of a decentralized GPU network.
- Very low prices on H100 and A100
- Large pool of available GPUs
- Decentralized resilience
- Crypto-native billing
- Marketplace model — hardware quality varies by host
- No enterprise SLAs or uptime guarantees
- Not suitable for compliance-sensitive workloads

Lepton AI is now part of NVIDIA and operates as NVIDIA DGX Cloud Lepton, a platform for accessing and managing AI infrastructure at scale. Originally a serverless AI platform, it has been integrated into NVIDIA's broader DGX Cloud ecosystem, giving teams access to NVIDIA-managed GPU infrastructure through a unified platform. Teams building on NVIDIA's ecosystem should evaluate DGX Cloud Lepton alongside other NVIDIA cloud offerings.
- NVIDIA-managed infrastructure
- DGX Cloud ecosystem integration
- Pythonic SDK
- Competitive spot pricing
- Absorbed into NVIDIA DGX Cloud — roadmap and pricing tied to NVIDIA enterprise sales cycle
- Less suitable for teams outside the NVIDIA ecosystem
- Self-serve on-demand access limited compared to independent GPU clouds
