No idempotency keys or control-plane rate limits were found, spot and B200 prices go through sales, and a storage outage in eu-norway1 lasted about four hours on 29 September 2026.\n\n**Modal.** Scale to zero by default, per-second billing and about one-second container boots. No REST API or OpenAPI spec for deploying or invoking Functions.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Crusoe Cloud\n\n1. Sign every request. Build the payload from path, sorted query string, verb and `X-Crusoe-Timestamp`, HMAC-SHA256 it with the base64url-decoded secret, and send `Authorization: Bearer 1.0:\u003caccess_key_id\u003e:\u003csignature\u003e`.\n2. Use `https://api.cloud.crusoe.ai/v1`. Some docs pages and the MCP server still name `api.crusoecloud.com` and `/v1alpha5`.\n3. Creates, updates and deletes return an operation. Poll the matching operations endpoint for `state`, and list existing resources by name before retrying a create, because no idempotency key was found.\n4. Managed AI uses separate Intelligence API keys and hosts, `api.inference.crusoecloud.com` for OpenAI-compatible calls and `api.intelligence.crusoecloud.com` for files and fine-tuning jobs.\n5. Delete a VM and its disks to stop charges. A stopped on-demand VM is not billed for compute, but its 128 GB OS disk still bills at $0.08 a GiB-month.\n\n### Modal\n\n1. Create a proxy token and require it on every web endpoint before sharing the URL; endpoints are public by default\n2. Pass a list to `gpu=` (for example `[\"H100\", \"A100-80GB\"]`) so a job still runs when the first choice is unavailable\n3. Set `scaledown_window` and `min_containers` explicitly; the defaults are 60 seconds and 0\n4. Use `.spawn()` and poll the call ID for long work instead of holding a web request open\n5. Keep web endpoint traffic under 200 requests a second or ask Modal to raise the limit\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Crusoe Cloud or Modal?\n\nModal and Crusoe Cloud score within a point of each other on agent readiness, 63.6 (B) and 63.4 (B). Crusoe Cloud leads on schema \u0026 documentation, security \u0026 auth and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Can an agent call Crusoe Cloud and Modal without installing anything?\n\nCrusoe Cloud has a hosted endpoint at https://api.cloud.crusoe.ai/v1. No hosted endpoint is listed for Modal.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/crusoe-cloud-vs-modal.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/crusoe-cloud-vs-modal.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"crusoe-cloud\", \"b\": \"modal\"}`.
