The Runcrate CLI gives you full control over your GPU cloud from the terminal. Deploy instances, SSH in, transfer files, manage volumes, and handle billing without touching the dashboard.

**Get started in 30 seconds:**

```bash theme={"theme":"github-dark"}
runcrate login                              # Sign in via browser
runcrate instances types --gpu A100         # See available GPUs and pricing
runcrate instances create --name dev --gpu A100   # Deploy a GPU instance
runcrate ssh dev                            # SSH into your instance
runcrate ssh dev -- nvidia-smi              # Run a command remotely
```
