TensorDock
TensorDock operates a global GPU cloud marketplace that connects independent hardware hosts with customers needing affordable on-demand and spot GPU compute. The platform exposes two REST APIs — the original Marketplace API (v0) at marketplace.tensordock.com and the newer Instances API (v2) at dashboard.tensordock.com — to deploy, manage, and scale virtual machines across 100+ locations in 20+ countries with 42+ GPU models ranging from consumer RTX cards to H100 SXM5. TensorDock targets AI startups, researchers, rendering shops, and gaming services that need cost-effective compute (advertised at up to 80% less than hyperscalers) without quotas or long-term commitments.
TensorDock publishes 9 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Instances API, Secrets API, Authorization API, and 6 more. Tagged areas include GPU, Cloud, Marketplace, Compute, and Virtual Machines.
The TensorDock catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 2 Spectral governance rulesets.
TensorDock’s developer surface includes authentication, developer portal, documentation, getting-started guide, developer console, sandbox, signup flow, and 41 more developer resources.
