June 2024 Product Update

- Team Vast

June 31, 2024-GPU

Welcome back to our monthly check-in here at Vast.ai!

The big news this month is that hosting fees on Vast have been removed. Previously, a hosting fee was deducted from host earnings before payout, but it has now been replaced with a more flexible internal surcharge model. For renters, nothing will change.

For hosts, since there's no longer a hosting fee, you won't have to mentally deduct that amount from your earnings or adjust your prices to cover it. Moving forward, the prices hosts set will be the prices they earn. (And if you're a host using the CLI to adjust prices automatically, you'll want to modify your code to reflect the change in pricing semantics if you haven't done so already.) Your net earnings will not be affected by this update.

Bug Fixes

Bug fixes are also a critical part of our ongoing improvements. Below are some of the latest adjustments we've made to keep Vast running smoothly for all our users:

  • Fixed support for environment variables containing '='
  • The CLI command from a template now does create the instance
  • Reworked and fixed issues with PDF invoice exports
  • Added additional error reporting to host listing function

At Vast.ai, updating our product means more than just troubleshooting – we're also committed to making other meaningful changes. The latest updates are as follows:

  • Added copy and delete buttons to templates
  • Improved rsync to try multiple IPs (public and private) with timeout
  • Added a search engine for templates
