| ``` |
|
|
| A daily history of per-GPU-hour rental prices from tracked cloud GPU providers (H100, H200, A100, L40S, RTX 4090/5090, RTX A6000, B200 and others). **This covers tracked providers only, not the whole market.** |
|
|
| Snapshot range: 2026-10-27 to 2026-10-29 (3 daily snapshots). The files hold 99 price series, 118 change points and 14 price changes. |
|
|
| ## Files |
| - `gpu_price_points.csv`: one row per change point. Each row is the first snapshot date at that price or status for a series (vendor | gpu | tier | vram_gb | gpu_count). Columns: key, vendor, gpu, tier, vram_gb, gpu_count, billing_unit, first_seen, date, hourly_usd, price_usd, status, verified_at. |
| - `status`: `ranked`; `held` (published but not ranked, either stale or too thin a marketplace); or `removed` (no longer tracked). |
| - `gpu_price_changes.csv`: day-over-day price changes (from_hourly_usd, to_hourly_usd, change_pct, source_url). |
| - `history.json`: the raw upstream file. |
| |
| ## Sources and method |
| - Upstream: https://thelanternworks.com/api/v1/gpu-prices/history.json, built from https://thelanternworks.com/api/v1/gpu-prices.json. |
| - Each rate comes from the vendor's own pricing page or API (`source_url`). A daily job re-reads every source (robots.txt respected) and updates a price only where it parsed one. A rate not re-verified for 7 days is held and not ranked. |
| - Prices are list prices before tax, storage and egress. Check the vendor page before you pay. |
|
|
| ## Update cadence |
| Upstream refreshes daily at about 10:23 UTC (`next_refresh_utc` in the API). This dataset copy is a snapshot taken 2026-10-29 and is updated when re-published. |
