Interesting, and I see it's backed by Y Combinator, too. Would need to see a price comparison with AWS and GCP, though. Do share if anyone does a proper write-up.

Hi there, Paperspace Co-founder here. There's an in depth write-up here: https://medium.com/initialized-capital/benchmarking-tensorfl... We're about about a quarter of the cost of AWS. Moreover, the K80 GPU on AWS/GCP is very old and NVIDIA has made a ton of optimizations with the new Pascal architecture which we offer. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
