Modal Reviews 

BS (marketing creativity by Modal) - there is no free credits!!!

Bullshit. They keep charging me and I cannot even delete my account without support. Support always says there is outstanding amount we cannot delete your account. So take the money and stop this vicious circle!

Disaster. Took credit card number, and after payment is done, they spam me with "billing cycle spend limit reached", when i spent 0.01$. Support doesnt exist, Slack is full of just bot replies, 0 help.

Overall a very good product. I just wish I could detach a run after it was submitted. Sometimes I realized the run will not finish before I leave work, but forgot the --detach flag and then I have to start from scratch :(

This ridiculous site uses a payment verification system that’s utterly ridiculous and simply unsuitable for international payments. I’ve registered loads of cards to verify my account and spent days on end trying to switch cards due to verification failures, I’ve done this over and over again until I’ve nearly driven myself mad. The payment system only provides dodgy links, and I wouldn’t recommend using this service if you want your card banned for life until you die from the links they create. Enjoy your dodgy service on your own, I’m done here.

I've used Colab and Kaggle for years now.
They're useful and I've learned a lot.
But Ram and GPU limits are becoming evident today.
These Modal guys give you H100 and even H200 for free.
Yes there's a 30$ limit monthly but is plenty for common use.
In today LLM world a cloud service that gives you that much is not rare is unique.
I hope they will continue to offer these conditions for as long as possible.

Great in overall, but too unfair for GitHub users since they have to add a card to have the full $30/mo for free (only $5/mo otherwise) while Google users don't
