GitHub Actions runners, 2x faster at half the cost

Change one line and your jobs run 2x faster on newer AMD EPYC hardware, at half the cost of GitHub-hosted runners. Every run gets flaky test detection and quarantine built in.

runs-on: bp-ubuntu-latest-x64-4x

On CircleCI or Semaphore? Same machines, same rates. From $0.004/min. Pricing

Runners

• One-line change: swap runs-on and keep the rest of your workflow • x64 and arm64 (Graviton), 2 to 64 vCPU, plus Docker builders at the same per-minute rate • Public benchmark you can rerun yourself: buildpulse/runner-benchmarks

CircleCI and Semaphore

• Same machines and per-minute rates, through CircleCI's self-hosted runner or a Semaphore self-hosted agent • 33% less than CircleCI Linux VM at 2 and 4 vCPU, 73% less at 8 and 16 (CircleCI list prices, October 2026). Compare • Semaphore adds its own $0.0025/min self-hosted fee. Setup and prices

Flaky tests: detect, quarantine, fix

• Detect flaky tests automatically across every CI run • Quarantine them so they stop blocking merges while you fix them • Find root cause with build logs, first and last seen links, and per-service views • Create tickets in Jira, Linear, and GitHub Issues from the dashboard

Works with every test framework, including Jest, Cypress, Playwright, RSpec, minitest, pytest and Go, on GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Buildkite and other CI.
