# Compute

> Run a Python function on a fresh cloud GPU. Prepaid, billed by the started minute, terminated when the run ends.

## Docs

- [Introduction](https://docs.compute.cx/index.md): One CLI. A fresh GPU machine per run. Prepaid credit, billed while the machine exists.
- [Install](https://docs.compute.cx/get-started/install.md): Install the Compute CLI with curl. PyPI is not the v0.1 route.
- [Sign in](https://docs.compute.cx/get-started/sign-in.md): Browser sign-in writes a local credential. CI uses a revocable API key.
- [First run](https://docs.compute.cx/get-started/first-run.md): Dry-run a tiny MLP, then execute it on RunPod Secure H100-SXM.
- [Run](https://docs.compute.cx/cli/run.md): Upload a Python file, enqueue a function, optionally wait for JSON.
- [GPU list](https://docs.compute.cx/cli/gpus.md): Locked public SKUs and list rates. H100-SXM is the lead.
- [Credits](https://docs.compute.cx/cli/credits.md): Prepaid USD. $10 minimum Checkout. Balance is after the webhook, not at tab-open.
- [Logs](https://docs.compute.cx/cli/logs.md): Follow a run from another terminal. Default run detaches.
- [Cancel](https://docs.compute.cx/cli/cancel.md): Request teardown. Confirm the machine is gone.
- [SDK (Python)](https://docs.compute.cx/sdk.md): App, Image, @app.function, and .remote(). The CLI is how you launch.
- [Billing](https://docs.compute.cx/billing.md): Prepaid credit. Started minutes plus platform fee. Failed boot is $0.
- [Limits](https://docs.compute.cx/limits.md): Fresh machine per run. 10-minute default. You do not log into the box.
- [Support](https://docs.compute.cx/support.md): Send a run id and a request id. Do not paste tokens.
