Nebius
AI-native cloud offering large GPU clusters and hosted inference in Europe and the US.
NOT REALLY
why this verdict
Keep it — OpenAI has not replaced it
OpenAI's version overlaps, but does not finish the dev tools job, so this one is still worth keeping open.
- A named launch, not a vibe named, unlinked
- Hyperscalers and CoreWeave locking up GPU supply with much larger balance sheets. OpenAI, September 25, 2025 — no announcement link recorded yet.
- How much of the job it covers not the job editorial call
- Parts of it. The job still needs the tool to get finished.
- Is there a free way to do it? paid only
- 3 replacements listed, all paid.
- What the call is worth nothing to cancel
- No paid entry tier tracked, so there is no subscription to cancel.

The backstory
Nebius rebuilt itself as a specialist AI cloud, selling dense GPU clusters and managed inference to labs and enterprises that cannot get capacity elsewhere or want it hosted in Europe. Competing with hyperscalers on capital is hopeless, so it competes on availability and jurisdiction. That has been enough: GPU scarcity persisted longer than anyone forecast, and European AI sovereignty rules created demand that American clouds structurally cannot serve.
