Lumino Cloud - Affordable GPU rentals for AI/ML in India

I'm Dev, building Lumino Cloud - a GPU rental service for AI/ML workloads in India.

Problem: cloud GPU costs are still brutal for indie AI builders.
AWS can push H100 pricing above $8/hr, and even A100 workloads get expensive fast when you run them for real.

Solution: simpler GPU rentals with Indian payments and per-second billing.

Current Pricing (March 2026)

  • H100 SXM 80GB: INR 583/hr (~$7/hr)
  • A100 SXM 80GB: INR 173/hr (~$2.10/hr)
  • RTX 4090 24GB: INR 73/hr (~$0.85/hr)
  • RTX 3090 24GB: INR 35/hr (~$0.42/hr)

Why teams choose Lumino

  • Indian payments: UPI, cards, Razorpay, PayPal
  • Pay-per-second billing
  • No long-term commitment
  • Free data transfer
  • Better pricing than major cloud providers on key GPUs

Quick comparison

  • H100: AWS Mumbai INR 673/hr vs Lumino INR 583/hr
  • A100: AWS Mumbai INR 340/hr vs Lumino INR 173/hr

Perfect for: LLM training, Stable Diffusion, ComfyUI, fine-tuning, inference, and AI research.

Tech stack: React + Rust + Node.js
