The short version

  • Only Murf has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: CoreWeave gPU nodes are sold as full 8 GPU instances rather than single cards, so the entry cost for an H100 node is $49.24 an hour on demand; Murf sold directly by Murf Inc on AWS Marketplace (Murf Falcon Text to Speech API) at $0.00001 per character, about one cent per 1,000 characters, in USD
  • They diverge on capability: CoreWeave covers NVIDIA H100/A100, Murf covers 120+ AI voices.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

CoreWeave

  • GPU nodes are sold as full 8 GPU instances rather than single cards, so the entry cost for an H100 node is $49.24 an hour on demand
  • Spot pricing is roughly 40% of on demand, at $19.71 an hour for the same H100 node, so predictable capacity carries a large premium
  • The newest hardware carries no published price and requires contacting sales
  • Discounts of up to 60% require committed usage agreements negotiated with sales
  • Only the GH200 is offered as a single GPU instance

Murf

  • Sold directly by Murf Inc on AWS Marketplace (Murf Falcon Text to Speech API) at $0.00001 per character, about one cent per 1,000 characters, in USD
