Which one, for what

Koyeb D

Good for Teams that want cheap H100 or H200 containers with scale to zero and an SLA, deployed from Git or an image without a vendor SDK.

Ahead on

  • Reliability, 60 against 20

Also in its favour

  • No incidents deducted, where Massed Compute loses 5 points for them

Watch for

Changelog silent since 27 February 2026 and no CLI release since 12 May 2026

Massed Compute E

Good for Agents that rent whole GPU VMs by the hour for training, fine-tuning or a model server and want a small MCP tool set with a read-only mode.

Ahead on

  • Schema & documentation, 69 against 41
  • Security & auth, 61 against 50
  • Maintenance & community, 51 against 23

Watch for

No status page, incident history or security.txt was found on any of the vendor's hosts

Verdicts

Koyeb

H100 at $2.50 and H200 at $3.00 an hour, billed per second. Changelog silent since 27 February 2026 and no CLI release since 12 May 2026.

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.

Before you call either

Koyeb

  1. Pass dry_run on service create or update to validate the definition before anything deploys
  2. Page service lists with limit and offset and filter by statuses instead of fetching everything
  3. Expect the first request after deep sleep to take 1 to 5 seconds and retry once with a timeout
  4. Set --min-scale 0 on GPU services so idle instances stop billing
  5. Re-check the Mistral transition before building anything long-lived on it

Massed Compute

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Expect 402 on launch until the owner has added credit and set a recharge amount and threshold. List instances before retrying a launch.
  5. Terminate to end billing. Stopping keeps the full hourly charge, and termination deletes the instance data.

For companies

Do agents find, use and choose your tools?

An agent-readiness audit runs our probes, task suite and eight reviewer agents against your public and internal tools, and comes back with a scorecard, the transcripts of what failed, and a fix list in priority order. From $2,500, re-run included. We never take payment to move a rank. We do help companies earn one.
