From the study · assessmentVoltage Park, in short
What stood out when we read the documents: strengths, weaknesses, who it suits, and what we could not find.
Strengths
- H100 SXM from 1.99 USD per GPU-hour (VM or Ethernet bare metal) and 2.49 with 3.2 Tbps InfiniBand, read from the official API
- Self-serve InfiniBand bare metal from 8 up to 1,016 GPUs without a contract
- Ingress, egress and support stated as included
- 99.5% SLA for both VMs and bare-metal nodes with up to 100% credit
- ISO 27001:2022, SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA via a public Trust Center
- Managed Kubernetes add-on with GPU Operator, MPI Operator, Prometheus/Grafana and VAST CSI
- Blackwell systems (B200, GB200, B300, GB300) available on long-term contracts
Weaknesses
- Pricing page itself says 'Contact for pricing' for every tier; per-GPU prices are visible only through the API or the dashboard
- Official API showed zero available GPUs for bare metal and no VM location with availability at check time
- Stopped instances bill at the full running rate
- Single GPU model for self-serve (H100); Blackwell only under long-term contract
- API keys cannot be generated self-service according to the help center (must be requested)
- US-only data centers
- No spot tier, no serverless product, no published crypto payment
Ideal for
- Teams needing multi-node H100 InfiniBand clusters without a contract
- US buyers who need ISO 27001 / SOC 2 / HIPAA documentation
- Enterprises planning 6-12+ month Blackwell or H100 reservations
Not published
- Shared (VAST) storage price per GB (dashboard only)
- Whether bare-metal nodes carry a storage charge in addition to the GPU price
- Exact billing increment (Agreement says charges are continuous and may be more frequent than hourly)
- Minimum deposit (not published)
- Crypto acceptance (not published
- deposits by card or bank)
- Identity verification: the Agreement says account information is 'subject to authentication' without detail
- Names and cities of the six US data centers
- Reserved and Blackwell prices (contact sales)
- Founding year and headquarters city (not on pages read)
Observations
Pricing page shows three H100 tiers each labelled 'Contact for pricing'; the only visible figure is 'starting at $1.99/hr'
Banner states Voltage Park has merged with Lightning AI; help center is branded Lightning AI Help Center
Dashboard sign-up asks for email address and password
