DigitalOcean Gradient™ AI Agentic Cloud

Build, train, and deploy AI agents with the DigitalOcean Gradient™ AI Agentic Cloud:

DigitalOcean Gradient™ AI Platform

Build AI agents on GPU-powered infrastructure using foundation models and resources such as knowledge bases and agent routes.

DigitalOcean Gradient™ AI GPU Droplets

GPU Droplets are VMs with GPUs in a single or 8 GPU configuration. We provide an AI/ML-ready image and 1-Click Models so you can get started without manual setup.

DigitalOcean Gradient™ AI Bare Metal GPUs

DigitalOcean Gradient™ AI Bare Metal GPUs are dedicated, single-tenant servers with 8 GPUs of various models that can operate standalone or in multi-node clusters.

DigitalOcean Gradient™ AI 1-Click Models

1-Click Models let you deploy third-party generative AI models on DigitalOcean Gradient™ AI GPU Droplets with no additional setup or configuration.

Paperspace

Paperspace is a cloud-based machine learning platform that offers GPU-powered virtual machines and a Kubernetes-based container service.

Bare metal GPUs and GPU Droplets both provide GPU-based compute resources tailored to AI/ML workloads, but they’re each suited for different use cases. Learn more about the difference between bare metal GPUs and GPU Droplets.

Latest Updates

1 October 2025

• The OpenAI GPT-image-1 model is now available on DigitalOcean Gradient™ AI Platform. See all available models.

• You can now use auto-indexing for knowledge bases. Auto-indexing keeps your knowledge base up-to-date by automatically re-indexing new and updated files from connected sources.

25 September 2025

• You can now view activity logs for your knowledge bases in the DigitalOcean Control Panel. The Activity tab shows the 15 most recent indexing jobs, and includes details such as status, number of files or URLs processed, skipped, or failed, token usage, and charges. You can also download CSV files for more detailed debugging.
