## Company

- Ownership: subsidiary (Iliad Group (controlled by Xavier Niel))
- Stage: subsidiary [source](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scaleway)
- Accelerators: none found
- Total raised: unknown
- Last round: unknown (unknown)
- Investors: Iliad Group (Xavier Niel)
- Revenue: unknown

Scaleway is not an independent startup: it is the cloud-computing division of France's Iliad Group (telecom operator Free's parent, controlled by billionaire Xavier Niel), originally launched as 'Online.net'/'Online SAS' in 1999-2000 and rebranded Scaleway in 2015. It funds large infrastructure investments (e.g. its 2024 purchase of an Nvidia H100-based supercomputer for AI/GPU offerings, and hosting the Iliad-backed open-source AI lab Kyutai) via parent-company capital rather than independent VC rounds, so classic funding-stage/round metrics (seed, Series A, etc.) do not apply. No standalone, current revenue figure for Scaleway was found within the research budget; Iliad Group as a whole is a large public company (Euronext Paris: ILD) with multi-billion-euro consolidated revenue, but that figure covers telecom (Free, Play, iliad Italia) as well as Scaleway and is not broken out per-segment in the sources reviewed.

## Caveats

- Embedded official catalog provides per-minute EUR ex-VAT rates and regional shapes. USD equivalents use ECB September 28, 2026 reference 1 EUR = 1.1378 USD; invoice is still EUR and bank FX/spreads may differ. native_node_hour=exact perMinute×60. Approximate monthly display is not a contractual cap.
- Any null count, CPU/RAM, billing increment or minimum is unverified, not unlimited/free.
- This is GPU-product research, not a claim that every feature of the entire vendor documentation was audited. Unverified features are null.
- Unknown fee, storage or bandwidth means full monthly total may be unavailable. Rates exclude taxes.
- Multi-GPU SKUs (2/4/8 GPUs) priced per GPU with gpu_min_count = N (sold only as N-GPU instances); the 'alt' flag was removed (ordinary GPU VMs, not an adjacent product). Per-GPU rates from the page __NEXT_DATA__ per-minute catalog (research/providers/scaleway-gpu.json, 2026-09-28); live page check: L4-2/4/8 EUR 1.58/3.15/6.30 per hour = 2/4/8 x L4-1 EUR 0.79.
- Block storage: Block Storage 5K EUR 0.000130/GB-h (~EUR 0.0949/GB-month, disk_gib_month converted at 1.1378) billed while the volume exists; 15K tier EUR 0.000177/GB-h; Block/Unified Snapshot EUR 0.000049/GB-h (scaleway.com/en/pricing/storage, 2026-09-28). GPU instances list "Block storage" (+ free scratch NVMe on L40S/H100/B300) with no included boot volume, so included_disk_gib 0.
- Egress: the GPU pricing page publishes no egress charge; Scaleway Virtual Instances say "List prices include egress and IPv6" but the GPU page does not repeat it, so egress_gib stays null (unverified, not free). Flexible IPv4 EUR 0.005/h (scaleway.com/en/pricing/network).
- Structure 2026-09-28: the catalog listed each SKU once per availability zone (fr-par-1/fr-par-2/pl-waw-2) at the same price; duplicates merged into one regime per SKU, label names the zones. Removed keys: on-demand-h100-2-80g-h100-pcie-5, on-demand-h100-1-80g-h100-pcie-7, on-demand-l40s-8-48g-l40s-9, on-demand-l40s-4-48g-l40s-11, on-demand-l40s-2-48g-l40s-13, on-demand-l40s-1-48g-l40s-15, on-demand-l4-8-24g-l4-17, on-demand-l4-8-24g-l4-18, on-demand-l4-4-24g-l4-20, on-demand-l4-4-24g-l4-21, on-demand-l4-2-24g-l4-23, on-demand-l4-2-24g-l4-24, on-demand-l4-1-24g-l4-26, on-demand-l4-1-24g-l4-27.
- Every GPU Instance needs a block boot volume (min 10 GB, 125 GB recommended for GPU OS): 125 GB x EUR 0.000130/GB-h = ~EUR 11.9 (~$13.5)/month while the volume exists, billed even when powered off. A flexible IPv4 (EUR 0.005/h) is created by default unless unticked.
- No commitment discount exists for GPU Instances: Compute Savings Plans (up to 25%) exclude B300, H100, RENDER, L4, L40S. Only on-demand pricing (or Elastic Metal monthly / sales contracts).
- Standby (stop-in-place) bills full compute; only 'power off' (archive) stops GPU billing. Kapsule GPU node pools are billed from creation, including GPU-operator setup time.
- Scaleway Billing FAQ says each Instance resource is "billed separately for a minimum of 60 minutes" per start/stop period, while the Instances FAQ says GPU Instances are "billed per minute of uptime". The 60-minute minimum is not confirmed for GPU Instances; if it applies, sessions under 1 h cost up to ~6x the per-minute estimate.

## Gotchas
- Embedded official catalog provides per-minute EUR ex-VAT rates and regional shapes. USD equivalents use ECB September 28, 2026 reference 1 EUR = 1.1378 USD; invoice is still EUR and bank FX/spreads may differ. native_node_hour=exact perMinute×60. Approximate monthly display is not a contractual cap.
- Any null count, CPU/RAM, billing increment or minimum is unverified, not unlimited/free.
- This is GPU-product research, not a claim that every feature of the entire vendor documentation was audited. Unverified features are null.
- GPU multi-count bundles, variant/region selection and fractional slices require a SKU-aware estimator; unsupported rows remain unpriced in strict cards.

## Worked example (required protocol workload)
4 vCPU / 8 GiB, 50 concurrent × 8 hours/day × 22 days = **8,800 instance-hours/month**. 30% CPU utilization does not reduce allocated GPU uptime. 50 GiB snapshots and 100 GiB egress are additional. The requested CPU-only workload has no GPU type/count, so its full GPU-provider total is **null**, not a fictitious CPU equivalent.

No fixed single-full-GPU USD quote suitable for a numeric example was verified. Compute = 8,800 × selected offer $/hour, or required node count × node price; keep the estimate null until the offer/FX/commitment is resolved.

## Evidence scope
Sources read are listed in the provider/features JSON. Raw pricing pages, relevant docs and API payloads are retained under `../raw/`. All unknown feature toggles remain null.
