Paperspace provides cloud-based GPU workstations and virtual machines for machine learning, rendering, and other compute-intensive tasks. You can spin up a machine with an NVIDIA GPU in minutes, choose from pre-configured environments with PyTorch, TensorFlow, and other frameworks, and pay by the hour or month. Gradient, their ML platform, adds notebooks, experiments, and deployment tools.

It's aimed at developers and researchers who need GPU access without buying hardware. The pricing is competitive compared to larger cloud providers, and the interface is simpler than AWS or GCP for this specific use case. You can also use it for gaming or graphic design on a remote desktop. For anyone training models or doing GPU-accelerated work, it's a practical option.
