What Nodegrove is
Nodegrove answers three questions about running open AI models: does it fit your card, what does it cost and how fast is it, and where should you run it. Every answer comes from a measurement, a published spec or a provider's own price page.
How we make money
From referral links. When you sign up with a provider through one, the provider may pay us, and it costs you nothing extra.
The rules
- A payment never changes a verdict. Fits or not, the cost and the ranking come from the numbers. The cheapest or best option is shown whether or not it pays us.
- Every referral link says so, right next to it, and carries
rel="sponsored". - No paid placements. Nobody can pay to be listed, ranked higher or left out.
- Prices are what buyers pay, read from the provider's own page with the date we read them. When tax or a plan changes the price at the till, we say so.
How we measure
Every number on the site is one of four kinds, and the page says which: measured on a card we rented, computed from the model's own files with the formula shown, read from a provider's own page with the date, or typed in by you. The setup, the jobs we ran on 20 October 2026 and what each took are on the benchmarks page.
Corrections
If a number is wrong, or a provider's terms have changed, write to info@nodegrove.io. Corrections are made in the same place as the error. Providers can write too, about their own listing; they get the same answer as anyone else.
