  • Prices are the Developer (pay-as-you-go) rate. Team ($100/month, 100,000 unit minutes) and Business ($250/month, 250,000 unit minutes) plans bring the effective rate for included minutes to two thirds of these prices.
  • Billing is in unit minutes: max(vCPU, RAM GB / 2) x minutes x platform multiplier (Linux 1, Windows 2, macOS 10, Linux on Apple Silicon 7); Linux x64 and arm64 cost the same.
  • Windows runners need the Team plan or higher; the Developer plan's macOS concurrency (12 vCPU / 28 GB) rules out the macOS 12x56, 16x28 and 16x56 shapes, so those are marked Team as well. 'Access to larger shapes' is a Business feature, but the pricing page does not say which shapes that covers.
  • Max job duration is 3 hours on Developer, 5 hours on Team and up to 24 hours on Business.
  • Extended-memory (80 GB and up) and 64-vCPU shapes, up to 512 GB RAM, need special access from support; Linux on Apple Silicon (M4 Pro, M5 Max) is early access.
  • Cache volumes: 20 GB by default, storage $0.0048 per GB-day and snapshots $0.002 per GB-hour on Developer; artifacts, container registry, Turborepo and Gradle cache $0.20 per GB-month.
  • Remote Docker builds cost $0.05 per build on Developer; Buildkite agents are limited access on request.
  • Each instance bills at least 1 minute; a trailing partial minute of 15 seconds or less is rounded down (70 s bills as 1 minute, 150 s as 3).
