calculate
calculate_36_month_tco
Normalizes server costs over 36 months (or horizon_months): rent with announced price changes and an assumed yearly rise, setup fees, extra IPv4, egress overage, add-ons. Either pass incumbent_sku (an id from audit_2026_provider_repricing, e.g. ovh-advance-2-2026 or hetzner-ax102-1) with quantity, or pass scorecard: a full input with several quotes to compare (role incumbent|bid, units, pricing{base, unit month|gpu_hour, gpusPerUnit, promo}, setupFeePerUnit, extraIPv4, egress, sla, deliveryDays). Anything not stated is flagged and counted as $0.
calculate_managed_gcp_ai
Prices Managed Inference on Google Cloud (Model A): GPU clusters and vLLM endpoints that run in the client's own GCP project. Google bills compute to the client at list price; Wells Software Consulting LLC bills a flat management retainer per node ($250 L4, $800 A100 80GB, $2,500 H100). For a model, peak requests per second, token split and commitment tier it returns every node shape with GCP compute, retainer and total per month, plus node counts with N+1 once throughput baselines are published (sizing_ready).
audit
audit_2026_provider_repricing
Hetzner (April 1 and June 15, 2026) and OVHcloud (July/August option and configuration changes, renewals from October 1, 2026) price changes by SKU, with renewal rules and when to stay versus switch. Use the returned SKU ids with calculate_36_month_tco.
request
request_blind_counter_quotes
Opens a counter-quote request with the RentServers.com desk: 3+ providers bid blind against the spec and the reply lays every quote out on one 36-month basis. Only call this when the user asks for quotes and provides their work email; they must click a confirmation link before any provider is contacted. Requests under $100/mo or for a single VPS get self-serve list prices instead of a ticket.
server
get_server_price_index
Current, dated rental price benchmarks. GPUs: on-demand and 12-month reserved median USD per GPU-hour, lowest on-demand listing, reserved price by term, and RentServers.com's published quote medians. Dedicated: entry floors, reference tiers and Hetzner/OVHcloud SKU prices. VPS: cheapest and median by size.

RentServers.com — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can RentServers.com do?
It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: audit_2026_provider_repricing, calculate_36_month_tco, calculate_managed_gcp_ai, get_server_price_index, request_blind_counter_quotes. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is RentServers.com working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 423 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect RentServers.com?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does RentServers.com need an API key?
No. RentServers.com completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 5 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is RentServers.com?
It answers our handshake in 423 ms on average, which is faster than 33% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
