The honest brief

CoreWeave

Operates at a scale smaller GPU clouds can't match — first to stand up new NVIDIA generations, with nine of the ten top AI model providers as customers.

  • Frontier-scale GPU capacity
  • First to new NVIDIA generations
  • Managed Kubernetes + observability
  • Contracted by top AI labs
  • Enterprise-oriented; no free tier
  • Less self-serve than smaller GPU clouds
  • Heavy debt-financed expansion

Nebius

Covers the full AI stack from bare-metal GPU clusters up to managed per-token inference, where many GPU clouds stop at raw compute.

  • Latest NVIDIA silicon, H100 through Blackwell
  • Managed Slurm and Kubernetes built in
  • Token Factory per-token inference layer
  • Nasdaq-listed, with Microsoft and Meta deals
  • AI-only cloud — few general-purpose services
  • Younger ecosystem than the big general clouds
