Start now
Answer in brief
Start now is the label this site gives a listing when a live read of the provider’s own stock showed a machine of that GPU free to start on the day of the check.
Start now in practice
The label is earned by evidence: a stock page, a console or an API read on the day. A provider’s sentence that a GPU is self-serve does not earn it. That listing stays Not checked.
A label is a record of one day. Stock changes within hours, which is why each label on this site carries its date. Runcrate’s label comes from its live feed when a page is built.
