Hinode
What Hinode is
Hinode is a Linux cloud workspace that keeps files and apps persistent and lets users attach GPU machines for AI work. Its listed machines include 24 GB NVIDIA L4, 48 GB NVIDIA L40S, and 96 GB RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell options. Machines start from a workspace snapshot, and both the workspace and machines can read a shared folder. A one-click catalog offers ComfyUI, PyTorch, JupyterLab, AI Toolkit, Ollama, vLLM, and VS Code.
For scripted work, the hinode run command can start a machine and execute a job; the machine can pause when the job finishes, and Hinode can email the result. Connections include SSH, scp, rsync, VS Code, and AI assistant access through Claude's connector directory, an MCP connector, or hinode mcp. The desktop is available in Hinode apps for macOS, Windows, and Linux, or in Chrome or Edge on a computer. Compute is metered by the minute and billed at month end. Disk, shared-folder storage, and outgoing traffic have separate usage charges. Workspaces and machines pause after 15 minutes without qualifying activity, while storage charges continue.
Who it suits
Hinode suits people running AI workloads such as ComfyUI image generation, model training, video models, or batch jobs who want persistent files and GPU machines. It can also suit developers who prefer SSH, rsync, VS Code, or scripted jobs and can use a supported desktop app or browser.
