QuickPods

Go from zero to a running AI stack in minutes - pick a template, get MLOps out of the box, and run on fractional GPUs so you only pay for the slice you need.

Powered by proprietary PodVirt platform
Using 25% of GPU via PodVirt - pay only for what you use

Overview

QuickPods packages the tools most AI teams stitch together by hand - serving, fine-tuning, notebooks, experiment tracking, a model registry - into one-click templates on GPUs virtualized with our proprietary podvirt layer. No Dockerfiles, no cluster setup, no idle whole-GPU bills.

Use cases

Fine-tune an open model

Launch an Unsloth/LoRA template, point it at your dataset, ship.

Serve a model behind an API

vLLM template with autoscaling in a click.

Notebook + experiment tracking

Reproducible research env with metrics and artifacts logged automatically.

When to use QuickPods

  • You want to start building, not configuring infra
  • You need MLOps without wiring five tools together
  • Your workload fits on a GPU fraction and you want lower cost

How to use

  1. 1

    Pick a template

    Open QuickPods and choose a ready-made template - vLLM, Unsloth, ComfyUI, PyTorch and more - from the catalog. No CLI, no Dockerfiles.

  2. 2

    Choose your GPU fraction

    Select how much GPU you need, from 25% to 100%, powered by podvirt - you only pay for the slice you use.

  3. 3

    Start your pod

    Click start and your pod boots in seconds into a ready-to-use Jupyter notebook with the template's software pre-installed. Start building right away.

Frequently asked questions

What is QuickPods?

QuickPods is PodStack’s one-click deployment product for production-ready AI stacks. You pick a template - vLLM, PyTorch, ComfyUI, Unsloth and more - and it launches on a fractional or full NVIDIA GPU with MLOps tooling already wired in.

Which GPUs can I deploy QuickPods on?

QuickPods run on NVIDIA A10G 24GB, L40S 48GB, A100 40GB, A100 80GB and H100 80GB. Every GPU supports fractional allocation from 12.5% up to 100% through PodVirt, so you only pay for the slice you need.

How does billing work for QuickPods?

Billing is per-second and scales linearly with the GPU fraction you allocate, and there are zero egress fees. Pricing is sales-led - contact sales@podstack.ai for a quote tailored to your workload.

What MLOps features come built in?

QuickPods ship with experiment tracking, a model registry, real-time cost tracking and metrics logging, so you can go from template to a monitored deployment without stitching tools together.

Can I bring my own Docker image instead of a template?

Yes. QuickPods start from one-click templates, but you can launch any OCI-compatible Docker image. The templates are a fast path, not a limitation.

Is PodStack built on OpenStack or Kubernetes?

No. PodStack’s control plane, scheduler and PodVirt virtualisation layer are proprietary and purpose-built for fractional GPU sharing - not OpenStack and not vanilla Kubernetes. That is what makes 12.5% GPU allocation and sub-second scaling possible.
