Modal Has a Free API: Run GPU Workloads in the Cloud Without DevOps

What is Modal? Modal is a serverless cloud platform for running Python code. Define a function, decorate it with @modal.function, and it runs in the cloud on any hardware — CPUs, GPUs (A100, H100), or large memory machines. No Docker, no Kubernetes, no infrastructure. Why Modal? $30 free credits/month — enough to run hundreds of GPU tasks Zero infrastructure — no Docker, no K8s, no servers GPU access — A10G, A100, H100 on demand Sub-second cold starts — custom container snapshots Cron jobs — scheduled functions built in Web endpoints — deploy APIs with one decorator Quick Start pip install modal modal setup # Free account at modal.com import modal app = modal . App ( " my-app " ) @app.function () def hello ( name : str ) -> str : return f " Hello { name } from the cloud! " @app.local_entrypoint () def main (): print ( hello . remote ( " World " )) # Runs in Modal's cloud modal run app.py # Deploys and runs instantly GPU Workloads import modal app = modal .
