7400 credits right now give about 5.5 hours of GPU time per month, while the original subscription was roughly 240 hours monthly.
For comparison, with around $35 on a cloud Docker setup I can get close to 100 hours of RTX 4090 time, with any custom nodes or models I want.
I really love Comfy and I genuinely want comfy.cloud to become the best place to run it in the cloud, but at the moment it feels like it’s not quite there yet. It’s more expensive and less flexible than RunPod, and it’s also not a simple “pay-for-pictures” solution like Krea.
Maybe offering lower-grade GPUs with a big GPU-time quota, or an option to just pay for GPU time without a subscription, could make the service a lot more attractive.
That's my interpretation as well. "337000" credits vs 4200 credits seems like a bit of a downgrade...
I also got the 20$ subscription for a month to try comfyui cloud out, hoping that the BYOLora would be rolled out soon, and didn't think it would only be available for a higher tier.
Charging the same we had with "8 hours / day" for "3 hours / month" is a bit of a thief or a scam IMO.
And it feels more like that when no one from the organization, and no administrator is trying to convince the users or answering to the critics, it's just plain silence, like " it is what it is, take it or leave it, we don't care about you..."
I really like comfy cloud and want to keep using it. I also get that the old $20 for ~8 hours a day on an a100 was very generous and couldn’t last forever.
what surprised me is how big this change is: by my math the standard/founder plan (5460 credits at 0.39 credits/sec) is only about 3–4 hours of rtx 6000 time per month. before, $20 was roughly ~240 hours a month, now it’s just a few. even if blackwell is faster, that’s a huge difference. I mostly used cloud to test workflows and never came close to 8 hours a day, so I would’ve been fine with something in between.
my questions are:
is my math on credits → gpu hours correct, or am I misunderstanding something?
is there any chance of having a time-based subscription option again (with a reasonable monthly hour cap) alongside the credit system, especially for heavier users/founders?
I agree with the previous comments regarding the new pricing policy. Blackwell RTX 6000 Pros is a fantastic upgrade. And honestly, it's perfectly normal for the service to grow and try to make money. But the number of credits that even the PRO subscription version offers seems uncompetitive compared to other GPU rental services, or even regular aggregators like Freepik or Weavy.
The move to Blackwell 6000 Pros is a smart play, especially with that VRAM bump. Having 96GB opens up some realy interesting possibilities for video workflows that were just too heavy befor. The usage based pricing seems fair too since you're only paying for actual GPU time and not idle periods sitting around editing.
i love comfy but comfy cloud is not worth it anymore, decreasing the gpu time by 99.5%, and justifying it by high tier gpus is not worth the tradeoff majority of the consumers dont need 96 gb Vram, additionally you need minimum 35$ subscription if you bring your own loras ...lol... what a deadbeat...
Hello! It is already December 9th, and I don't see any changes to the tariff (or 'plan'/'rate'). Could you please tell me, will there be no changes after all? My subscription is ending in a few days, and I would like to know the answer. This will influence my decision whether to renew it or not.
Is anyone else just staring at their dashboard waiting for the switch? 😅
The new credit system was supposed to kick in today, but nothing has changed yet. It’s actually kind of stressful... I feel like I’m going to blink, the update will hit mid-generation, and suddenly I’ll be burning through my credits without realizing it.
My subscription just ended, and I'm refreshing the page, hoping to see some alternative tariff option... I've already gone back to a different service, but I would really like to have a reasonable way to work with this specific service.
This is a shameless downgrade, and other platforms offers custom loras and all models at this price with easier interface, I am just keeping comfyUI cloud for my own research purpose, but if this is the case, as a tutor, i have to recommend other platforms over ComfyUI to my classes, that's a big group of users you just lost there.

I'm in favor of making lower-end GPUs, adding Loras, and keeping unlimited(8h).
0.39 credits / second means that’s about 179.5 minutes, or roughly 3 hours of time, right?
Current plan has 8 hours / day and now it's roughly 3 hours / month, am I right or not?

That is a downgrade actually, now let me check runpod price

This sounds pretty bad...

sooo, we are going from 240 hours / month to 3 hours / month?
thats just shady af, you could rent 10 GPUs for that price.
I was prepared for prices to rise, but this is crazy!
I was so happy when this service appeared! And now I'm extremely upset.

Seriously, most users won't mind A100, but
1. 8hrs GPU time per day with A100 should not change that much
2. custom LoRA should be available, at least for Founder's subscription

It’s delayed by two days
@robinjhuang
I'm in trouble with my friends,
because of the recent rate plan change.
I recently recommended Comfy Cloud to them, touting its affordability and value.
But now that the prices have skyrocketed by 50 times, I'm facing a backlash.
The number of videos I can create on the same plan has dropped to less than 1/50.
The 'Founders Edition' should be offered on the condition that the previous plan is maintained.
I'll even go back to A100, just give me my plan back!
its actually 80 times less value
why i still can not see any other subscription plan but only basic $20, i want to subscription creator plan, thank you
Do the credits roll over month to month? It is possible to just buy credits for occasional use without a subscription?
Would we still get the boost even if we upgrade to Creator for the custom Loras?
Is anyone else just staring at their dashboard waiting for the switch? 😅

runpod ?
yes
