Get Your Answer

Hardware requirements. Cost analysis. ROI timeline. Everything you need to make the decision.

Why We Built This

We got tired of the vague answers. "You need a good GPU." "It depends." "Just use the cloud."

Meanwhile, people are melting their RTX 5090s, buying the wrong hardware, or worse - paying $500/month to OpenAI when they could own their compute for less.

NeuroCost exists because everyone deserves to know the real cost of AI. Not marketing speak. Not cloud propaganda. Just math.

"Stop renting intelligence.
Start owning it."
