Developer launches GPU and LLM pricing index API

A developer has created an API called GPU Index to simplify the process of comparing GPU cloud pricing. The API normalizes pricing data from various providers, accounting for factors like contract length and price type, which are often obscured on provider pages. In addition to GPU pricing, the developer has also launched similar APIs for LLM token prices, domain registration costs, certificate transparency data, and email deliverability checks, all available with a free tier on RapidAPI.
