Initial credit to order: $5. It is prepaid credit, not a fee: it pays for 55 hours of usage at $0.09/hour, and when it runs out you top up.

Prices are in US dollars only and exclude taxes; any VAT or sales tax is added on the invoice according to your country.

What Quartz Q16 costs for common durations

Each duration priced on the meter: every started hour at the hourly price, never more than the monthly price in a billing period.

Good default for…

  • Load-test generator

    k6 or Locust workers for a few hours, aimed at a system you are allowed to test.

  • Team development server

    One shared machine for a small team’s dev environments and preview builds.

  • Data crunching

    pandas, DuckDB or batch image conversion on datasets that fit in 16 GB.

  • Several sites on one server

    A handful of client sites behind one reverse proxy.

Not the right fit for

Long stretches at full CPU: for sustained load, the pinned vCPUs of Chrono C32 are the safer choice.
