**APIs profiled:** 25

Paperspace is a GPU cloud platform for AI, ML, and 3D rendering workloads, acquired by DigitalOcean in 2023. The platform combines on-demand GPU/CPU machines (Core), the Gradient ML workflow stack (Notebooks, Datasets, Models, Workflows), and container-as-a-service Deployments under a single team-scoped REST API at api.paperspace.com/v1. Compute is billed per second across H100, A100, A6000, V100, A5000, A4000, and P6000 SKUs, with Bearer-token authentication using team-scoped API keys.
