In their own words
ClearML
ClearML is an AI infrastructure platform organized into an Infrastructure Control Plane, AI Development Center, and GenAI App Engine. The Control Plane manages GPU resources across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments, including multi-tenant GPU-as-a-Service. The Development Center supports developing, training, testing, and deploying AI/ML models, with monitoring, pipelines, a model repository, and CI/CD integration. The GenAI App Engine deploys LLMs on compute clusters and provides networking, authentication, access control, and monitoring. Experiment tracking, comparisons, artifacts, metrics and plots, and Git version control integration appear across the listed tiers. Integrations include PyTorch, TensorFlow, Keras, scikit-learn, XGBoost, LightGBM, Optuna, Hydra, TensorBoard, Matplotlib, and LangChain; storage integrations include AWS S3, Azure, Google Storage, MinIO, and Backblaze B2. ClearML can be hosted on its servers, self-hosted, or provided as a managed service, with VPC, on-premises including air-gapped, and hybrid options. Community is free; Pro costs $15 a month per user plus usage. Scale and Enterprise pricing is by quote.
Paperspace Gradient
Paperspace Gradient is a machine-learning platform for developing and operating models. It combines managed compute with experiment tracking, a model registry, pipeline orchestration, model serving and data versioning. Gradient is available on Linux, macOS, Windows and the web. Free plans for individual users and teams include 5 GB of storage; no hourly or maximum monthly price is shown for those plans. Paid plans are billed hourly up to a maximum monthly price. Pro — User costs $8 a month and includes 15 GB of storage, while Growth — User costs $39 a month with 50 GB. Team plans include Pro — Team at $12 a month with 15 GB of storage and Growth — Team at $39 a month with 50 GB. Those listed paid prices are maximum monthly prices, not a statement of a fixed hourly charge. The combination of compute and tools for tracking data, organizing pipelines and serving models covers several stages of machine-learning work.
