Compile iOS without owning a Mac.
Xcode builds and Swift test suites on dedicated Apple-silicon Macs we rack ourselves. One tenant per VM, destroyed when the build exits. Archive, sign, export to TestFlight, billed per minute, with source sync and cache restore free.
Your source in, an artifact out.
Each build runs inside its own ephemeral VM through Virtualization.framework. You do not get a shell on somebody’s Mac mini, you get a clean machine, your source, and an artifact.
Only the chunks that changed.
Files are split into content-addressed chunks and hashed. The client uploads only the hashes the server is missing, so a second build ships kilobytes, not the repository. .git, Pods, DerivedData and Carthage are skipped by default; source sync is not billed.
Logs stream as xcodebuild writes them.
destination takes exactly what you would pass to xcodebuild -destination. Output is unbuffered, so a slow compile shows progress. The meter runs from the moment xcodebuild starts to the moment it exits, not source sync, cache restore or queue time. Point --webhook-url at your endpoint to run it async.
Certificates never travel with a build.
Register signing material once as a grant; the build request carries only grant.id, and the certificate is decrypted into the build VM’s keychain at build time and destroyed with the VM. DerivedData, SPM and CocoaPods each get a cache volume keyed by the resolved dependency graph, a matching digest mounts before the build starts.
Incremental Swift build of a 340k-line app: 9m 12s → 2m 38s with a warm cache.
The artifact installs itself.
Pass attachTo and the finished .app is installed and launched on a live simulator session, no download, no shell in between. Write Swift, build, watch it run, read the screen, iterate.

Behind 15-minute signed links, or written straight to your own S3, GCS or R2 bucket. Kept 14 days.
Faster because
the hardware is faster.
Apple silicon we own, one job at a time, with sticky DerivedData across builds. Medians on public iOS repositories.
Workload Test Comparison
Named hardware, no markup.
Xcode 16.4, 16.2 and 15.4 on the image, selectable with xcode-select. iOS 17 and 18 simulator runtimes ship with it. Disk is 150 GB.
No hosted-Mac markup.
We buy and rack Apple silicon rather than renting EC2 Macs or reselling GitHub’s pool. That is why a minute is $0.01 against GitHub’s $0.062 and Depot’s $0.08.
A clean keychain every job.
Each job gets a fresh VM from a golden image through Virtualization.framework, deleted at the end. Provisioning profiles and derived data never cross between builds.
Xcode and the toolchain, ready.
Homebrew, fastlane, CocoaPods and a warm SwiftPM cache are on the image. Warm minis claim in 12 seconds instead of waiting on a full boot and login.
One balance. Every machine you run.
Xcode builds draw from the same credit pool as your sandboxes, runners and simulators, billed by the second at one published rate card.

Every plan spends its credit pool first, then usage keeps flowing and bills per second at your committed in-plan rate, no hard stop mid-run, no forced upgrade. Without a plan you pay the on-demand rate instead. Prices are illustrative pending final list pricing; the per-second billing model is final.
The Xcode build rate card.
Apple silicon
Dedicated Apple-silicon build machines. Larger instances scale on the same per-minute ladder. On-demand is 1.5× the in-plan rate. All usage bills by the second; paused machines are not billed.
