H100 at $6.50 and A100 at $4.00 an hour, and start-up and idle replica time are billed.\n\n**Massed Compute.** The hosted MCP server and REST API accept OAuth grants or API tokens in read-only and full-access tiers, and all 17 tools carry typed schemas and safety annotations in a public server card. No status page, rate limit figures or API changelog were found, a launch has no idempotency key, and the governing terms could not be read.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Baseten\n\n1. Create a team key with inference-only permission for calling models and keep full-access keys out of the agent\n2. Sleep for `retry_after` seconds on a 429 from api.baseten.co; the activate and deactivate endpoints allow 20 calls a minute\n3. Retry 429, 503 and 529 with backoff, but treat 500 as a bug in your model code\n4. Set `scale_down_delay` below the 900-second default or every burst bills 15 idle minutes\n5. Send payloads over 256 KiB to `/predict`, not `/async_predict`, unless support has raised the async limit\n\n### Massed Compute\n\n1. Use `https://vm.massedcompute.com/api/v1`. The older docs at api-docs.massedcompute.com describe a separate marketplace API on `api.massedcompute.com` whose keys come from support.\n2. Ask the owner for a read-only token unless the task must launch or terminate. Read-only credentials cannot call launch, restart, terminate or SSH key changes.\n3. Call `gpu_inventory_list` and `images_list` before `instances_launch`. Product names and image IDs are free values, and SXM-only images do not run on PCIe cards.\n4. Expect 402 on launch until the owner has added credit and set a recharge amount and threshold. List instances before retrying a launch.\n5. Terminate to end billing. Stopping keeps the full hourly charge, and termination deletes the instance data.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Baseten or Massed Compute?\n\nBaseten scores 66.5 (B) on agent readiness against Massed Compute's 42.3 (E), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Do Baseten and Massed Compute need an API key?\n\nBaseten needs an API key. Massed Compute takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Baseten and Massed Compute without installing anything?\n\nYes. Baseten has a hosted endpoint at https://api.baseten.co and Massed Compute at https://vm.massedcompute.com/api/v1.\n\n### Are Baseten and Massed Compute open source?\n\nBaseten is open source (MIT). No open-source release is listed for Massed Compute.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/baseten-vs-massed-compute.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/baseten-vs-massed-compute.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"baseten\", \"b\": \"massed-compute\"}`.
