How this hosting type works
This affiliate-only category covers providers with official evidence for deploying an API-powered AI agent or app server, and separately identifies GPU infrastructure for running your own models. Generic shared hosting is not treated as AI hosting.
Who it is for
Teams deploying an agent backed by a model API can start with an app-ready managed platform or root-enabled VPS. Teams serving their own model need a provider that explicitly documents GPU capacity; an API-agent listing does not imply GPU access.
Trade-offs to understand
Root-enabled VPS options provide control but leave security, updates and model operations to you. Managed app platforms reduce operations but may restrict runtimes, while GPU instances can add hourly and storage costs.
What to compare before buying
- Confirm root or Docker access and the runtime required by your agent.
- Separate API-powered agents from self-hosted models: only the latter need documented GPU capacity.
- Compare documented scaling, regions, storage, egress and support—not invented benchmarks.
- Check the official source links and current plan limits before buying through an affiliate link.
Frequently asked questions
Does every AI-agent provider include GPUs?
No. This ranking labels API-agent deployment separately from GPU model hosting. A provider is marked for GPU only when its official source explicitly documents GPU infrastructure.
Can shared hosting run an AI agent?
A shared plan may call an external API in some cases, but generic shared hosting is not enough evidence for this category. We require an app-server, Docker, root, agent, or GPU capability documented by the provider.
Why are only affiliate providers listed?
The AI category is intentionally limited to providers with a current affiliate or referral destination in Hostig’s catalog. Commercial disclosure still applies, and users should verify terms on the official site.
