Hinode is a cloud workspace for people who make images and video with AI. The workspace keeps your files, installed applications and a shared folder for models and datasets between sessions. When a job needs a whole GPU, you attach a machine beside it: NVIDIA L4 with 24 GB VRAM, L40S with 48 GB or RTX PRO 6000 with 96 GB, each with 32 to 256 GB of RAM. The machine starts from your saved workspace, so the tools you set up are already on it.
You can reach your work through a streamed Ubuntu desktop in the Hinode app for Mac, Windows and Linux, or in Chrome and Edge with nothing to install. It also works over SSH, with the hinode command-line tool, from VS Code Remote-SSH, or through an MCP connector for Claude and other assistants. ComfyUI, PyTorch, JupyterLab, Ollama, vLLM, AI Toolkit, Axolotl and a few other apps install in one click.
Billing is by the minute with no subscription. The workspace costs $0.297/hr while it runs, and GPU machines cost $1.75 to $12.58/hr, with a 15-minute minimum per machine. Both pause after 15 idle minutes, and your disk stays as it was. Storage is $0.15 per GB-month, the shared folder is $0.14 per GB-month and outbound traffic is $0.10 per GB. Workspaces run in US East or EU Frankfurt at the same prices, and a card is required to start.
Machines run Ubuntu Linux. The streamed desktop needs a computer; phones, Safari and Firefox can't display it, while SSH, the CLI and the assistant connector work from anywhere.
