Price	none stated
Per-object cap	not applicable
Retention	not applicable
Egress	not stated
Identity	email not established: /signup, /register, /startups, /free-trial and /terms all return 116-word shells with no form, and the homepage's 'No credit card' claim cannot be tested without one

Composes with	USD 300 at USD 6 a month is 50 months of the smallest VM in nominal terms, but the credit is a trial balance with an unstated expiry, so the real composition is a few months of a Lagos-hosted box with 500 GiB of transfer.
Reliability	no reliability event recorded
Notes	The smallest published machine is the Basic VM at USD 0.00595/hour or USD 6.00 a month, 1 vCPU, 512 MiB, 10 GiB and 500 GiB of transfer, read on 2026-10-24 from gocloud.africa/services. the entry-tier figure is superseded by the named Basic VM. A vGPU line is listed with no price and no spec. The docs send API calls to api.gocloud.ng, a different TLD that did not answer. Not ranked.
Evidence rung	unverified the amount is a marketing badge on the vendor's own homepage; the identity gate, the expiry and a usable price are all unpublished, so the weakest field sets the rung
Checked	2026-10-25 (live); stale on 2026-11-08
