Common issues

Most instances are running in about 3 minutes, and 8-GPU instances in around 10. App templates take a few minutes longer while the image is pulled. If a deployment is stuck well past that, stop it and try again, or pick a different offer from the marketplace. Stopping a deployment before it is running refunds the first hour in full.
Check the SSH troubleshooting guide for common connection issues including permission denied, connection refused, and timeout errors.
Deployments are automatically terminated, and their disks deleted, when your credit balance can’t cover the next hour. Set up auto top-up to prevent this.
Platform-generated private keys can only be downloaded once. Generate a new key pair in SSH Keys and use it for your next deployment.
If a payment fails, check that your card details are correct and that your bank isn’t blocking the transaction. You can add a new payment method on the Billing page.

Data and privacy

  • Instance data — Stopping a deployment terminates the instance and deletes its disk. There are no volumes or snapshots, so download anything you need before stopping.
  • Account data — Your profile, billing history, and SSH key metadata are stored securely. Deleting your account removes your access; see Settings for details.

Service availability

GPU availability depends on real-time supply. If a specific GPU type or region is unavailable, try a different configuration in the marketplace, or ask about reserved capacity.
