## Quote — verbatim

> Akash is the world's first decentralized supercloud where it connects underutilized resources with people that need these resources... the obvious advantage is cost — anywhere from 80% to 50% cheaper than what you normally pay on Amazon — and more importantly access, like GPUs which are very very hard to get on your regular cloud. Akash offers advanced GPUs like H100s for like $150.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Opening self-introduction. Auto-caption garbles the GPU pricing figure ("40 uh h100s for like $150" — plausibly "$1.50" per hour).
