Market read

September H100 pricing read

The September snapshot records a $4.12 CT-H100 median from 8 providers. The published median is -21.07% versus the final August history point.

  • Median of one deterministically selected, current, reviewed public on-demand H100 price per provider. Quote-only, unavailable, unapproved, superseded, and expired rows are excluded.
  • The headline comparison can reflect both price changes and sample composition, so it is not a pure same-provider market move.
  • The six providers shared with August have an unchanged matched-provider median (0.00%). Cyfuture AI and Daytona joined the September sample; the lower headline median reflects composition rather than a uniform price cut.
  • The matched-provider median uses 6 providers preserved in both dated reports; it separates repricing from changes in the headline sample.

Public on-demand list prices from provider price pages — not negotiated quotes, reserved terms, or spot rates. Each row carries its own source link and price date. How we source, label, and date evidence: methodology.

Composition

How to read the sample

  • The prior history point recorded 6 providers; the September benchmark contains 8.
  • Provider additions and removals are derived from the preserved constituent IDs in the two dated reports.
  • This report preserves the dated sample. Use current H100 pricing for today’s provider rows and benchmark value.

Evidence

Freshness and quality caveats

  • Public list prices are not quotes and do not establish orderable capacity.
  • Availability, region, networking, reservation terms, and minimum cluster size can make two H100 offers economically different.
  • A change in sample composition can move the median even when unchanged provider prices do not move.
  • Hand-maintained rows expire 30 days after editorial review. Automated rows must clear both a successful daily price check and a 180-day editorial review.
