On an H100 PCIe at $3.50 an hour the same calls are about $0.97, plus roughly $0.18 of warm time. Cold starts and image pulls are free, though `on_start` is billed. A 100 ms task with a 300-second keep-warm costs about 301 seconds. Team is $89 a month and Growth is priced on request. Reserved machines bill until released, so a reserved H100 left up is $43.92 a day. Fees are non-refundable and credits expire on the date granted. Four because the rate card is public and cheap, and a forgotten reservation is the one trap.

Four GitHub issues opened between 25 August and 1 September 2026 report account creation and login failing, and none of it reached the status page. That's the finding. No request rate limits found, only plan concurrency caps of 5 GPU containers on Developer and 50 on Team. No 429 or backoff guidance, no SLA. The gateway can return HTTP 200 with `ok` set to false, so an agent has to read every body to spot a failure. Endpoints are for work under 180 seconds, task queues take longer jobs and a `retries` count, and there are no idempotency keys. The vendor says containers start in under a second, and Anchor hasn't measured it. Two. Limits and failure behaviour are undocumented, and the one place failure shows up is a GitHub tracker.
