per GB of memory$0.0162 /h[1]$0.0162
  • Billed per second for reserved vCPU, memory and disk while a sandbox runs; stopped and paused sandboxes bill disk only, archived ones nothing.
  • Disk costs $0.000108 per GiB-hour after the first 5 GiB.
  • Windows sandboxes cost $0.0858 per vCPU-hour.
  • On-demand GPUs per hour: B300 $6.25, B200 $6.25, MI355X $5.99, H200 $4.54, H100 $3.95, RTX PRO 6000 $3.03, RTX 5090 $1.29, RTX 4090 $0.99. Spot (preemptible, Tier 2+): $4.08, $3.59, $3.44, $2.61, $2.27, $1.74, $0.74, $0.57.
  • GPU sandboxes are ephemeral (deleted on stop), take up to 8 GPUs and need GPU credits; free credit does not cover them.
  • Limits come from verification tiers: Tier 1 (email) 10 vCPU / 10 GiB RAM (20 GiB in a second table) / 30 GiB disk pooled across sandboxes; Tier 2 ($25 top-up) 100 / 200 GiB / 300 GiB; Tier 3 ($500) 250 / 500 GiB / 2,000 GiB; Tier 4 ($2,000 every 30 days) 500 / 1,000 GiB / 5,000 GiB.
  • Pause, fork and memory snapshots work only on Linux VM and Windows sandboxes; container sandboxes stop, archive and take filesystem snapshots.
  • Tier 1 and 2 sandboxes have restricted outbound internet access.
  • Startups can get up to $50k in credits; Enterprise adds SSO, audit logs, larger limits and dedicated regions.
  • The sub-90 ms start is Daytona's own claim.
