Use this data
These three ask the API for the filters above: the same plans in the same order (price, then price per GB RAM, then plan id) at the same list prices, with the same place names. A plan whose price is not verified is not ranked by the API unless you add include_stale=1; it then comes last, flagged stale. A filter the API has no parameter for is named in the lines under the boxes. CC BY 4.0.
- commitment=any also returns reserved and committed prices; this page adds only spot.
- The API has no price cap: the rows come ranked by price, stop where the price passes your budget.

Coverage and how to read this
Coverage. Verified now (13): Azure, DigitalOcean, Exoscale, Hetzner Cloud, IONOS, Kamatera, Leaseweb, Linode / Akamai Cloud, EDIS Global, netcup, OVHcloud, Scaleway, TransIP. Stopped, terms: Vultr, Hostinger, Hostwinds, UpCloud. Blocked (the provider's site refuses automated reads; we do not work around that): Contabo. Not added yet: 33 known providers. Every VPS provider we know: covered, stale, stopped, declined, not yet added.
Sorted by list price. Plans whose price is not verified come last. Nothing on this page is paid for or sponsored; there are no affiliate links. These are list prices, not transacted prices, and they exclude VAT unless a row says otherwise. Source links go to the provider's own page.
4,688 VPS plans are tracked; 1,052 can be compared. 3,590 are left out because their source does not publish vCPU and RAM (mostly Azure (3,564) and Exoscale (26)): a spec is never guessed, so those plans cannot be put next to the others. A further 46 are not shown because 46 are only in an order catalog or no longer on the provider's public page. 19 plans take their vCPU and RAM from the reviewed hardware map that the index series already use (marked "spec: reviewed map"), because the provider's feed carries only a size code.
A monthly price that the provider lists per hour is the hourly price x 730 hours. Prices in USD are converted at the ECB rate stored for the day (latest 2026-11-13: 1.1052 USD per EUR) where the provider lists another currency; the row says which. A plan whose price has not been verified for 3 days is greyed, shows "not verified since" its last check instead of a price, sorts after every plan with a verified price (by provider, then name, never by price; a budget or an hourly-billing filter leaves it out, because its price is not used), has no dot in the chart and never gets a badge or appears in the answer.
