vs alternatives

Hosted by Runware vs the alternatives.

Self-hosting means buying a VPS, setting it up and maintaining it. Other managed providers charge $16 to $133 per month for hosting on top of whatever you pay for AI. Runware hosts everything for free and bills only for the tokens your agent uses.
