GPU rental pricing
CoreWeave GPU pricing: rental cost per hour by GPU and region
CoreWeave rents GPU instances from about $1.25 per GPU-hour on-demand (L40 in europe), or roughly $0.78 per GPU-hour on spot. This page tracks 18 instance rows across 9 GPU models (H100, H200, A100, B200, GB200, GH200, and more) and 2 regions, from the ByteCosts GPU catalog. Per-GPU rate is the instance hourly price divided by GPU count, so multi-GPU boxes can look cheaper per card. Spot and preemptible capacity is not guaranteed and can be reclaimed, so size on-demand for steady jobs and treat spot as a discount for interruptible work.

Cheapest CoreWeave rate by GPU model
Lowest on-demand per-GPU-hour rate for each GPU model CoreWeave offers, from the ByteCosts catalog. Per-GPU rate is the instance hourly price divided by GPU count.

When CoreWeave GPUs are cost-effective
Headline per-hour price is only half the story for GPU rental. The variables that move a training or inference bill are GPU utilization (idle reserved capacity is pure waste), whether your job tolerates spot interruption, region and egress fees, and the storage and networking attached to the instance.
CoreWeave tends to win when you can keep the GPU busy, batch interruptible work onto spot, and pick a region close to your data. It tends to lose when capacity sits idle between jobs, when egress moves large datasets out repeatedly, or when a smaller or older GPU would clear your throughput target at a lower rate.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a CoreWeave GPU cost per hour?
CoreWeave rents GPUs from about $1.25 per GPU-hour on-demand for L40 (the nvidia-l40 instance in europe), up to higher rates for newer accelerators. See the table above for the cheapest rate per GPU model. Rates are list rental prices before committed-use discounts.
Is spot or on-demand cheaper on CoreWeave?
Spot (interruptible) capacity on CoreWeave can drop to about $0.78 per GPU-hour, well below on-demand, but it can be reclaimed at any time. Use spot for checkpointed, restartable jobs and on-demand for steady serving where an interruption would be costly.
Where does ByteCosts get CoreWeave GPU prices?
Rates come from the ByteCosts GPU catalog: SkyPilot’s open catalog plus first-party provider pricing pages and APIs, normalized to dollars per GPU-hour and dated. The provider’s own pricing page is the ground truth. Verify that source before production commitments.
