# AI Compute GPU Rental Price History

> AI Compute GPU Rental Price History is a paid API for AI agents from ai-compute-production.up.railway.app, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-17).

Returns historical hourly GPU rental price marks (spot, 1-week, 1-month tenors) in USD per GPU-hour, aggregated from multiple public pricing sources.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability ai-compute-gpu-rental-price-history-cdf3c95b
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the spot price history for H100-SXM GPU rentals over the past 7 days — I want to see the bid, ask, and mark prices in USD per GPU-hour?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need historical or current descriptive price marks for GPU rental costs aggregated from multiple public sources, particularly when you want bid/ask/mid/mark granularity across different tenors (spot, 1-week, 1-month). Prefer this over general cloud pricing APIs when you specifically need GPU-hour rental market data with source confidence metadata. Not suitable if you need a price forecast, a traded forward curve, or real-time streaming quotes.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'gpu' parameter returns a validation error
- Invalid or unrecognized GPU type may return empty results or an error
- Date range with no available data returns an empty points array
- Invalid ISO-8601 date format causes a parsing error
- Requesting a future date range returns no data points
- Service unavailability returns a 5xx error

## How this service works

Hourly GPU rental term structure: smoothed spot, 1w, and 1m marks in USD per GPU-hour, collected from public pricing sources. Not a forecast, a traded forward curve, or a recommendation. Trailing tenors are labeled trailing_median. Descriptive GPU rental marks aggregated from public sources. Not a forecast, a traded forward, or a recommendation.

## Output

Returns a time-series of hourly GPU rental price points for the requested GPU type and tenor, each with bid, ask, mid, and mark prices in USD/GPU-hour, plus a confidence object listing the number of public sources, their names, and the age of the newest and oldest observations. Also includes the query window (from/to), the GPU type, and a disclaimer noting these are descriptive marks, not forecasts or traded forwards.
