The short version
- Each has a real cost: Anyscale pricing for high-end H100/B200-class GPUs is not published and requires contacting sales.; Deno egress bandwidth overage costs $0.20/GB which can become expensive for high-traffic applications
- Prices and features above were last checked on 29 August 2026.
Where they differ

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Anyscale
- Pricing for high-end H100/B200-class GPUs is not published and requires contacting sales.
- Built around Ray, so teams not already using Ray face a steeper adoption curve than single-purpose inference APIs.
- No published fixed-fee subscription tier; all listed pricing is usage-based on-demand compute.
Deno
- Egress bandwidth overage costs $0.20/GB which can become expensive for high-traffic applications
- CPU time overage is $0.10/hour on Pro and Builder tiers, adding to costs for compute-intensive workloads
- Enterprise pricing is not disclosed; requires sales contact
