Shadeform provides a marketplace that aggregates GPU compute from over 30 cloud providers into a single dashboard, enabling AI/ML teams to provision on‑demand instances, multi‑node clusters, or reserved capacity with real‑time price comparison. The platform consolidates billing, support, and compliance, and offers API and CLI tools for automated integration into MLOps pipelines, reducing spend by up to 90 % versus direct provider rates.

Problem
AI teams must source high‑performance GPU compute from multiple cloud providers, each with its own pricing, billing, and provisioning workflow. This fragmentation creates procurement delays, unpredictable costs, and operational overhead when scaling training or inference workloads across regions.
Solution
Shadeform aggregates GPU capacity from more than 30 vetted cloud providers into a single marketplace. Users access a unified console that displays real‑time pricing, regional availability, and hardware specifications, allowing them to provision on‑demand instances, multi‑node clusters, or long‑term reserved commitments with a few clicks. Centralized billing and support eliminate the need for separate contracts, while automated price optimization can reduce spend by up to 90 % compared with direct provider rates. The platform also offers API and CLI hooks for seamless integration into existing MLOps pipelines, enabling rapid scaling of training and inference workloads across 100+ global regions.
Target Audience
AI/ML engineers, data scientists, and MLOps teams in enterprises or fast‑growing startups that need to train large models or serve inference at scale across multiple geographic regions.
