🚀 Just got through my first 24 hours of renting 8x Nvidia A100s(80gb each) on @ThunderCompute for my custom ~300gb quant of Kimi K3 by @Kimi_Moonshot ! Let me tell you how simple and affordable it is to spin up and spin down compute on this platform by connecting it to my agent via their MCP! Highly recommended if you can’t afford a $5000 DGX Spark like me 😆 (My last day with the two sparks I was working with was Friday 🥲) Try my referral link below if you want to give it a go!! 🙏 Extremely excited to share my Kimi K3 work with all of you!! My goal is to be right on par or just a bit below the PPL of the 1Bit @UnslothAI Kimi K3 model while being ~45% smaller! 🤓

infra should bend to the workload
not the other way around
Thunder now lets you reshape an instance as you go
- gpu type
- storage
- vCPUs
without ever losing flow
~$2 an hour on-demand compute here. Just set your model to GLM Flash, create a snapshot, and then you can run your own private instance for all your agents, OpenClaw, and so on. Link below and you get $50 free with your $50 load!

We are rolling out a suite of infrastructure upgrades.
Expect some short-term hiccups for the sake of massive improvements👀
Please report errors to our devs on Discord, we're working hard to ensure a smooth transition.
We're proud to announce two security milestones:
GDPR Compliance - we have fully implemented controls for GDPR compliance.
SOC 2 Type II - Our three-month observation period with an independent auditor is underway. Controls in production; official certification soon.
We heard your feedback, we've cut RAM pricing in half.
Base configs now have double the memory (32GB instead of 16GB)
Additional vCPUs now include 8GB memory per vCPU (instead of 4GB)
This applies to all new instances on @ThunderCompute. Enjoy!
We're seeing a massive spike in demand at @ThunderCompute. New record highs every hour.
Please bear with us for any service interruptions, our team is working hard to keep everything online!!
If you need GPUs for your next deep learning project, check out the @ThunderCompute VSCode extension.
You can develop with a GPU with one click, in VSCode or Cursor, as if the GPU was local to your machine
With cheap prices
