Committed Instances
Committed instance plans on E2E TIR AI PLATFORM offer significant discounts when you launch a instance for a fixed period (30, 90, or 365 days). The longer your commitment, the greater your savings compared to hourly billing rates.
Example: A PyTorch 2 instance costs ₹3.1 per hour. With a 90-day committed plan, you pay only ₹6,026 for the entire period—substantial savings over hourly billing.

Auto-Renewal (Default)
Your committed period automatically renews at the end of the current period using the active committed plan. You can select a different plan before the period ends, but it will only take effect after the current commitment completes.
