Your first steps after signing up for Nebius AI
After signing up for Nebius AI, you get access to the Nebius AI management console and can use it to create cloud resources on Nebius AI.
Here are the first steps we suggest.
Learn about Nebius AI resources and services
The infrastructure that you will deploy on Nebius AI will consist of resources. Resource types are grouped into services.
For example, in the Compute Cloud service you can create virtual machines, disks, snapshots etc.
To explore what you can do using Nebius AI services, see:
- List of services.
- Documentation: Guides, explanations, and references.
- Solutions: What Nebius AI is good for, and how to get most out of its services for your use cases.
Create your first resource and enter billing details
You can now get back to the management console to create your first resource, for example a virtual machine with GPUs. This is like your local machine, but in the cloud: you will be able to connect to it and use its computing resources for your ML/AI workloads.
To create a VM, in the management console go to Compute Cloud → Virtual machines and click Create VM. The form will guide you; if you need help, see the documentation.
The VM, as well as other Nebius AI resources you will create in the future, will be charged. When you set everything up and click Create VM at the bottom, we will ask you for your billing details:
-
Enter your country of residence, your bank account name, billing address, and other payment details.
-
Add the card. We process payments using Stripe
. For more information on accepted card types, see the Stripe documentation . -
Check your contact details. We will send payment invoices and other documents to your email address.
-
Click Save.
As the first payment, Nebius AI will charge $25. This amount you can later use to pay for the resources. For details, see Bank card payments.
If you would like to use another payment method for future payments, contact Nebius AI support
Add your employees
When you sign up, Nebius AI automatically creates an organization: a core resource that contains your resources and is used for identity and access management. For your employees to access Nebius AI and work with your resources, you need to create Nebius AI accounts for them in the organization created at signup. Using Cloud Organization, you can create accounts for employees by either sending them invitations to log into the management console with their Google or GitHub accounts, or configuring an identity federation to enable Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication, so that the employees use their corporate credentials to log in.
For more details, see the documentation:
Manage access to cloud resources
For security of your Nebius AI resources, manage what each employee can do with the resources. This is done by adding organization members to one of its groups: auditors
, viewers
, editors
, or admins
.
