Is OVHcloud's Mistral-Small-3.2-24B-Instruct (out) the best deal?

Better deals exist

Vultr's serverless inference offering is dramatically cheaper on both base price and per-token costs, though the model is smaller and less capable than Mistral-Small. OVHcloud's hidden costs (IPv4 billing, APAC egress changes post-2026, storage retrieval fees) further erode value. Vultr is the clear winner for cost-conscious workloads that can tolerate a smaller model.

Serverless Inference - Llama-3.1-Nemotron-Safety-Guard-8B-v3

$0.01/mosave 97%

30x cheaper base price and 31x cheaper per-token costs (input and output both $0.01/M vs OVHcloud's $0.31/M output), plus 100% network uptime SLA.

Caveat: Model is 8B parameters versus Mistral's 24B, so inference quality and capability will be noticeably lower for complex tasks; verify bandwidth overage rates for your data center.

Before you switch

OVHcloud charges IPv4 addresses separately per instance/Local Zone - factor this into total cost
OVHcloud APAC regions lose free egress after mid-2026; verify your region and traffic patterns
OVHcloud Object Storage tiers have 30-180 day minimums and early-deletion penalties; confirm your retention needs
Vultr's bandwidth overage rates vary by data center location - request pricing for your specific region before committing
Model capability gap: Llama-8B vs Mistral-24B is significant; test both on your actual workload before switching
