| Notes | Paid-only read only the pricing page, which lists no signup credit, and missed the students page, which publishes USD 20 of credit for A6000 or L40 use. The gate is a US university enrolment rather than a card, so the capacity exists and fails identity. |

| Evidence note | documented the pricing page was read on 2026-10-22 and publishes per-second rates per resource, the included disk and the zero egress fee. There is no free tier, so the verdict moves to paid-only |
