Currently Azure and AWS are available for a click-to-install via the Downloads tab on our Account's page. 

Any chance that a GCP flow is on the horizon?

    Hi btibert. We make those decisions based on how many requests we get from users and customers. For now, AWS and Azure seem to be clearly more prevalent in our user base and that's why we focus on them. GCP is requested by some people now and then, but we still don't have definite plans to integrate it. So, as a summary, maybe, even probably, in the mid-term (and we count your vote for that), but not, say, in the next few months.

    There is, of course, the alternative to use any linux VM in GCP and simply install AI Hub there.

    Understood, and thank you for the response.  I am thinking about teaching contexts, for some non-technical users.  Our institution uses GCP, which is the source of the ask.
