Questions
How is a server’s value calculated?
Value is the CPU’s multi-thread benchmark score divided by the monthly price. A higher number means more processing power for each euro or dollar you pay. Memory and storage have their own rankings: sort by cheapest memory or cheapest storage to compare those.
Where do the CPU scores come from?
Each CPU is matched by model name against the PassMark CPU benchmark table. When a model is not in the table, the provider’s own published benchmark is used, and when neither exists the server is listed without a score and is not ranked by value.
How fresh are the prices?
Prices and hardware come from the providers’ public feeds and are read again every few minutes. The page shows when the feeds behind it were last read.
Are prices shown with or without VAT?
Without VAT, as the providers publish them. Turn on “Include VAT” in the filters and set your rate to see what you will be billed.
Can I use this from a script or an AI agent?
Yes. GET https://api.akua.dev/v1/listings answers with the same listings, filters and ranking as this page, without an API key. The section above the questions shows the call for whatever you have filtered.
