It's not the same though. What you're paying for with Replicate is ease of use - they provide an API where you can just select any model you want and execute, which is useful for applications that need to make a API call to get a response from a LLM for example. Vultr doesn't have any of that AFAIK, and it will take you extra time to build it hence the lower price.
Exactly. I’d love to run this on Replicate, but I don’t know how to submit a custom shell script, run pip install, and train a model there etc. maybe it’s possible with Cog but I don’t know how to use it yet
Replicate? replicate.com/pricing
Ouaww, almost twice the price of Vultr for the same.

Replicate is great for hosting models, but they don't offer anything for development with SSH access, etc.
