FAQ
Questions Vast.ai owners ask.
- 01
How can I find a specific GPU model like an RTX 4090?
Use the search_offers capability with a query like {"gpu_name": {"eq": "RTX 4090"}}. The agent will return a list of available offers matching that hardware.
- 02
What information do I need to rent a new GPU instance?
You need an offer_id (from search results) and a Docker image name (e.g., 'pytorch/pytorch'). You can also optionally specify the disk size in GB using the rent_instance capability.
- 03
How do I stop an instance to avoid further charges?
Simply use the delete_instance capability with the specific instance_id. This will terminate the instance and release the GPU back to the marketplace.
