Vast.ai's cards show an hourly price and the words plus bandwidth. Tell this extension what you're running and it fills in the number, on every card, before you rent.
Data transfer is priced per host, from under a cent per TB to $40. Vast.ai can't show you a per-job total because how much you move is a fact about your job, not about the offer. This does that one multiplication.

Works in any Chromium browser. Firefox needs a small manifest change and isn't supported yet.
The search page already fetches every offer it renders, and each one carries the
host's inet_down_cost and inet_up_cost. The extension reads that response,
multiplies it by the workload you picked, and writes the total onto the card.
- No API key. It reads data the page already has.
- No extra requests. Zero additional load on Vast.ai.
- No backend. No telemetry, no analytics. Your workload numbers live in
chrome.storage.syncand nowhere else. One permission:storage.
Cards it has no data for keep Vast.ai's original caption.
Third-party project, built after a complaint on r/vastai. Not a criticism of the marketplace: every number comes from Vast.ai's own API, which publishes each host's rates openly. Vast.ai also ships a $TB (Download) filter for capping this permanently, and the extension points you at it.
