Pricing models
Hello,
my company is planning on trying some AI models for coding and we are planning on getting the GPUs from RunPod. But what we can't figure out is pricing, how does it work if we use the models about 8:00-16:00 every weekday? Are we still going to be billed $2.47 24/7?

Short answer is NO
RunPod doesn't charge you for models, they charge you for pod and volume
Yes but if we have a pod setup & running how is it charged? Should we just stop the pod @16:00 every day? Or will it stop automatically if not being used?
No, nothing is automatic, you create pods and then terminate it. If you don't terminate them they will be considered in use.

serverless should be the easiest
but if you wanna use pods, use infrastructure as code
that should be robust enough
write some terraform scripts with custom images or network volumes
and then cron terraform apply / terraform destroy
that will setup everything when you want it and destroy everything when you dont want it
its reliable and very serviceable

why does runpod not have a terraform provider

yeah
Serverless, Terraform. Everything is so easy in writing. 😆

you need literally under 10 clicks for serverless
Definiitely
why be so toxic in another person's thread where you aren't even the one who is recieving advice
Its called realistic approach. Nothing is easy until you go through the pain of doing it.
so what
is it yours?
