RunPod Flash Changes the Cost of Running an Image AI SaaS

RunPod Flash deploys Python model code to serverless GPUs, no custom Dockerfile. Its 3,000 images per dollar is a warm, steady-traffic figure, not an all-in cost. In a sparse-traffic scenario, about 500 images per dollar; a hosted API, about 25. Scale-to-zero saves nearly $800 a month in idle GPU; a cold start took 67 seconds. Use a hosted API when volume is low or no request can wait through a cold start.
