Is This Right for You?
We qualify fast so we don't waste your time
This is for you if:
- You run GitHub Actions or GitLab CI at scale and self-hosting is becoming noisy.
- You need runners in specific regions for latency, compliance, or cost control.
- You want ephemeral, locked-down runners without building a platform team.
- You already use AWS, Azure, GCP, or on-prem and want builds to stay inside it.
This is NOT for you if:
- You only want the cheapest per-minute runner price.
- You are fine maintaining long-lived runners yourself.
