|---|---|
| Price | $3.80/TB/mo at 10 TB ($38/mo, 25 TB included). At 5 TB: $20/mo = $4.00/TB (12.5 TB included). At 20 TB: two 10 TB VMs = $76/mo = $3.80/TB. Pricing is linear — no volume break — so the 10 TB rung is the only sensible buy. |
| Limits |
per-object-cap: none. APAC gets 40% of the advertised bandwidth (3 TB instead of 7.5 TB on the 3 TB plan). |
| Identity | card card |
| Egress | Metered with throttle-on-exceed, no published per-TB overage price. Ratios are 2.5x storage: 1 TB plan = 2.5 TB, 2 TB = 5 TB, 5 TB = 12.5 TB, 10 TB = 25 TB. Exceeding it is throttling, not billing — a holder of the 2 TB Hong Kong plan reports '2.5 TB (throttled to about 5 Mbps after limit from my experience)' (LET thread 217891). APAC bandwidth is a separate, smaller pool: a HostHatch rep confirmed on LET that 'the actual limit is 3TB per month for Singapore' while the site quoted 7.5 TB (thread 194949). free allowance: 3TB per month |

| Reliability | Mixed and the worst reliability record of the three leaders. Documented incidents: HostHatch Chicago storage 'data lost' with 5d15h downtime and multi-day ticket silence (thread 178049); Stockholm storage down (thread 199687); Los Angeles storage outage (thread 188952); one user reports being suspended for writing ~50 GB/day because it 'degrades their array' despite being under the bandwidth cap (thread 122150). Countervailing: a 859-day and a since-2015 customer both report the service as solid (threads 163774, 194092). |

| Free tier | The cheapest NVMe compute VM in the standing catalogue is 'NVMe 2 GB' at 'from $4.00 / month': 1 AMD EPYC core on fair share, 2 GB DDR4, 10 GB NVMe, 1 TB monthly transfer. The ladder above it, all quoted from the same table: 4 GB / 20 GB NVMe / 1 TB at $6.00; 8 GB / 35 GB / 2 TB at $9.00; 12 GB / 50 GB / 3 TB at $12.00 (4 cores, 1 dedicated); 16 GB / 75 GB / 4 TB at $15.00; 24 GB / 100 GB / 6 TB at $22.00; 32 GB / 125 GB / 8 TB at $29.00; 48 GB / 150 GB / 12 TB at $39.00; 64 GB / 200 GB / 15 TB at $49.00; 96 GB / 250 GB / 20 TB at $69.00. A second product line, Storage VMs on spinning disk, starts at 'Storage 1TB from $5.00 / month' with 1 vCPU core, 1024 MB RAM, 1000 GB disk and 2500 GB transfer, up to 10 TB disk with 25000 GB transfer for $38.00, in 8 locations.

| Identity | card not stated on the page read, and stated precisely: no page read lists the accepted payment methods. What is documented is that an order ships only against money. The API docs say an order 'pays for itself from the project owner's account credit when the credit covers it. Otherwise it waits while its invoice is paid in the console', so either prepaid credit or a payment instrument is needed before any server exists. The older signup form asks for 'your personal information as accurately as possible to avoid false-positives by our fraud detection system' and says it is used 'for your invoices and any other billing related processes'. The new console signup asks only for email, password and an optional project id, so nothing is charged at registration; the charge lands on the first invoice. A third-party benchmark table lists Stripe, PayPal and bank transfer as accepted, which is reported and was not verified here. |
| Egress | each plan carries a monthly transfer allowance rather than an unlimited port: 1 TB on the NVMe 2 GB plan, rising with the plan to 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 15 and 20 TB. The page states in a footnote that APAC limits are lower and are shown only on hover, and the vendor's own anniversary post gives the shape of that gap: '5 TB bandwidth (3 TB in APAC, 1.5TB in Seoul)'. Extra bandwidth is sold on top in fixed sizes through the API and the console. free allowance: 1024 GB per month on the NVMe 2 GB plan; lower in APAC, by an amount this read could not capture price per tb: not published on any page read: the API exposes an extra_bandwidth price list per product, and the documented values are explicitly illustrative ('The examples' prices are illustrations'), so no rate is recorded |
| Interface | ssh, rest inferred from the tooling the provider documents; not probed |
| Tooling | root KVM on the vendor's own hardware, so any client runs inside the VM and no wrapper is needed. The vendor documents its own control panel (Peregrine) and a REST API at https://docs.hosthatch.com/api/ covering orders, server power and reinstall, snapshots, firewalls, SSH keys, ISO mounting, IPv6 and reverse DNS, with an idempotency key on orders. Two API surfaces exist, the new console API and a legacy Peregrine API, which is a second write path to the same resource. |
| Composes with | This is a control-plane machine, not a data machine: 2 GB of RAM and 10 GB of NVMe run a scheduler, a broker client, a DNS primary or a tunnel endpoint, while the 1 TB a month moves control traffic only. HostHatch's $4.00 sits between them as the cheapest monthly-in-advance 2 GB box with 40 GbE public networking (100 GbE in some regions, per the vendor's own matrix) and a documented API. |
| Reliability | no incident observed; the vendor's own anniversary post states that on promotional plans 'It can take several days to resolve issues', that promotional servers have a 10-working-day setup, and that promo plans carry no refunds or credits. |
| Notes | Every price here is the vendor's standing catalogue, not a third-party table. No trial and no signup credit exist on any page read: the documentation bundle has zero occurrences of 'trial', and credit appears only as a balance the customer funds. A coupon aggregator advertises a '$100 Free Trial for 30 Days on VPS Hosting' against HostHatch, which is a template line repeated across that site's coupon pages and appears on no HostHatch page; it is unverified and contradicted by the vendor's own documentation, so it is not recorded as an offer. The login wall is recorded, not worked around. Two further observations: the vendor's own pages disagree on how many locations exist (16 on the products page, 13 on the homepage and features page, 16 data centers on the company page, and 14 rows including Seoul in the docs matrix), and console.hosthatch.com/products/ answered 404. |
