SF Compute

SF Compute (San Francisco Compute Company) runs a spot-priced market for very large scale GPU clusters. The api.sfcompute.com REST API lets buyers and sellers place market orders for blocks of H100 GPU-hours, manage tradable cluster contracts, query live market prices, check balances, and provision managed Kubernetes clusters, nodes, and VMs - all driven by the `sf` CLI and language SDKs.

SF Compute publishes 7 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Account API, Balance API, Clusters API, and 4 more. Tagged areas include GPU, Compute, Marketplace, H100, and Spot Pricing.

SF Compute’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, signup flow, pricing, changelog, support, and 13 more developer resources.
