Vast.ai Ranks Among Brex's Fastest-Growing Vendors in Fall 2026
Blog post from Vast.ai
Vast.ai ranked No. 11 among the fastest-growing software vendors in Brex’s Fall 2026 Benchmark report, matching its position in Brex’s 2025 ranking and reflecting increased customer spending between July and September 2026. Brex’s data, drawn from card and bill-pay activity across tens of thousands of companies, indicates that growing adoption of AI agents is increasing demand for supporting infrastructure such as GPUs, CPU execution, and sandbox or testing environments. GPU spending on Brex has risen roughly 15-fold since early 2024, while CPU execution spending has increased tenfold, largely because more companies are purchasing these services rather than paying higher individual bills. Vast.ai, categorized as a GPU provider, is one of eight compute-rental vendors in the top 25 and says its marketplace of more than 20,000 GPUs from over 1,000 independent hosts helps developers access flexible, pay-as-you-go compute for AI workloads.
