When I did the screenshot a month ago, it wasn't public info yet.

Now its public: SFCompute list it on their main page - https://sfcompute.com/

And they are *not* the only one

Okay, but you can't actually buy it at that price, it's a pure marketing ploy.

Not at $0.5 (which the lower bound in their marketing), but $1.5 is very doable on right times (done so multiple times)

The article says $2. Which is quite consistent for a small cluster

The average consumer cannot. Only those who have access to sfcompute's private beta can access those prices. Once it opens up to the public, the price will increase.

Running preprocessing jobs on a $0.5 SFCompute H100 node RN (though price usually bounces up to what you mentioned).
