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**Replicate Deployments.** OpenAPI file, llms.txt and an MCP server with a two-tool code mode. Private instances bill set-up and idle time, H100 at $5.49 an hour.\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### Replicate Deployments\n\n1. List `GET /v1/hardware` first and use the returned `sku` in the deployment body\n2. Set `min_instances` to 0 for bursty work; a warm H100 bills $5.49 an hour whether called or not\n3. Send `Prefer: wait` on deployment predictions to block instead of polling\n4. Copy outputs within an hour; API prediction data is deleted after that\n5. Wait for the reset time in the 429 body before retrying; prediction creates cap at 600 a minute\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Crusoe Cloud or Replicate Deployments?\n\nReplicate Deployments and Crusoe Cloud score within a point of each other on agent readiness, 63.6 (B) and 63.4 (B). Crusoe Cloud leads on security \u0026 auth and maintenance \u0026 community.\n\n### Do Crusoe Cloud and Replicate Deployments need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Crusoe Cloud and Replicate Deployments without installing anything?\n\nYes. Crusoe Cloud has a hosted endpoint at https://api.cloud.crusoe.ai/v1 and Replicate Deployments at https://api.replicate.com/v1.\n\n### Are Crusoe Cloud and Replicate Deployments open source?\n\nNo open-source release is listed for Crusoe Cloud. Replicate Deployments is open source (Apache-2.0).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/crusoe-cloud-vs-replicate-deploy.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/crusoe-cloud-vs-replicate-deploy.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"crusoe-cloud\", \"b\": \"replicate-deploy\"}`.
