API keys carry no scopes and can delete the account, rental creation has no idempotency key, and renting needs a browser signup and a $5 deposit.\n\n**Verda.** The REST API has a public OpenAPI 3.1 document, a dated changelog, published rate limits with `Retry-After`, and an audit log endpoint. The CLI's MCP server refuses billed or destructive calls without `confirm: true`. Access needs a browser signup and a prepaid balance, credentials carry one scope, and instance creation has no idempotency key.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Hyperbolic\n\n1. Read `GET /v2/on-demand/rental-options` first. It needs no key and lists what can be rented now, with `costPerHourCents` per GPU configuration.\n2. Send `rentalType` and `gpuCount` to `POST /v2/on-demand/rentals`. Region defaults to `us-central-1` and GPU type to `h100`, so set both from the options list.\n3. List active rentals before retrying a failed create call. There is no idempotency key and every ready rental bills hourly.\n4. Save an SSH public key with `POST /v2/ssh-keys` before renting. Without `sshPublicKeyIds` the newest saved key is attached.\n5. Do not create reserved rentals unless asked. They are paid in full up front and cannot be terminated early.\n\n### Verda\n\n1. Exchange the client ID and secret at `POST /v1/oauth2/token`, then send the access token as a Bearer header. It expires after 3,600 seconds, so refresh it.\n2. Send `location_code` on every create call. Requests without it have returned 400 since March 2026.\n3. Call `GET /v1/instance-availability` before launching. `POST /v1/instances` returns 503 `service_unavailable` when the location has no capacity.\n4. List instances before retrying a failed launch, because create has no idempotency key.\n5. Use the `delete` action to stop charges. `shutdown` keeps billing, and deleted volumes stay recoverable for 96 hours unless `delete_permanently` is set.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Hyperbolic or Verda?\n\nVerda scores 62.3 (B) on agent readiness against Hyperbolic's 48 (D), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Do Hyperbolic and Verda need an API key?\n\nHyperbolic needs an API key. Verda uses an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Hyperbolic and Verda without installing anything?\n\nYes. Hyperbolic has a hosted endpoint at https://api.hyperbolic.ai and Verda at https://api.verda.com/v1.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/hyperbolic-vs-verda.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/hyperbolic-vs-verda.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"hyperbolic\", \"b\": \"verda\"}`.
