Pay for concurrency,
not build minutes.
One slot runs one job at a time. Queue the rest in GitHub and run as many CI minutes as your team needs.
$199/ month / SCU
The default runner for everyday Swift and Xcode workflows.
- M4 Pro · 6 vCPU · 22GB
- 1 SCU · 1 concurrent job

$399/ month / runner
A full M4 Pro host profile for large builds and test suites.
- M4 Pro · 12 vCPU · 44GB
- 2 SCUs · 1 full-host runner
- Unlimited CI minutes
Simple capacity: 1 SCU is half an M4 Pro: 6 vCPU, 22GB, and one concurrent job. Founding and Standard each use 1 SCU; XL uses 2 SCUs and receives the whole host.
Free trial: one Standard SCU for 14 days or 300 build minutes. Fair use: above 15,000 minutes per SCU in 30 days starts a capacity review, never a surprise charge.

Every job starts in a prewarmed Tart VM and the VM is destroyed afterward.

Trust the lifecycle,
not a black box.
Your source, secrets, logs, checks, and artifacts remain in GitHub. Manzanita receives a short-lived job assignment, runs it inside one disposable macOS VM, then destroys the workspace and credentials.
