Create an AI Labs organization

Create an organization to give a class or a team its own AI Labs workspace, with its own members, courses, and GPUs.

Before you begin

Make sure that you:

• Are an Admin. Admins create and configure organizations.
• Are signed in to TIR in Delhi, where AI Labs runs.
• On a prepaid account, have enough infra credits for the plan. See Billing and Usage.

Choose a plan

The plan sets how many GPU servers the organization gets and how it is billed.

• Hourly suits a course with breaks or a trial. You are billed for the hours the organization runs, and you can stop it when nobody needs it. Choose it first if you are trying AI Labs out.
• Committed suits a long course of fixed length, at a discounted price. A committed organization runs until its period ends.

You can convert an hourly organization to a committed plan later. See Convert an organization to a committed plan.

Create the organization

1. In the AI LABS group of the TIR side menu, select AI Labs. The AI Labs portal opens.
2. Select Create Organization.
3. Enter an Organization Name. It can have up to 50 characters: letters, digits, spaces, underscores, and hyphens, starting and ending with a letter or a digit. Each organization needs a name of its own.
4. Enter a Description of up to 2,000 characters.
5. Choose the Plan Type and the plan.
6. Select Create.

The organization opens on its home page, where you manage courses and members, watch resource use, and open the organization’s settings. It already has a group named Default, which gives learners every AI Labs service and the plans with 5 GB of GPU memory, one instance per plan.

If the organization is not created
