Pricing
Usage pricing for private AI compute.

TDX-backed app servers for Docker workloads, APIs, agents, and proof-generating services.
Deploy CVMGPU TEE
GPU TEE from
TEE-ready GPU capacity for private inference, training, and protected batch jobs.

CVM disk
Persistent storage is billed while the CVM exists, whether compute is running or stopped.
Ask about storageBilling model
Compute stops. Storage stays until you delete it.
Pricing separates runtime from persistence. That makes short tests, demos, and one-off AI jobs cheaper without hiding disk costs.

Billing questions
Common edge cases.
If I use a CVM for one week, do I pay the full month?
No. Compute is usage based. One week is billed for the active minutes used, and storage is prorated while the disk exists.
What happens when I stop a CVM?
Compute charges stop immediately. Storage charges continue so the disk can be preserved. Delete the CVM to stop both.
Do free credits apply to GPU TEE?
$20 free credits apply to CVM usage after account verification. GPU capacity is priced separately because inventory is reserved and availability based.
What payment methods are supported?
Credit card through Stripe, crypto through Coinbase Commerce, and wire transfer for enterprise accounts.
Start with credits, then reserve what works.
Verified accounts get $20 in CVM credits. For GPU capacity, enterprise clusters, or volume commitments, talk to the Phala team.
