Blacksmith is amazing! With unlimited concurrency at half the cost, switching from Github Actions is pure upside. Their team's quick and helpful support on slack is the cherry on top.

Blacksmith offered lower cost and faster runners and made it easy to switch and see if those claims were true. Not only were those claims true, they continued to deliver more value with better observability for our CI/CD pipelines. That's allowed us to optimize our build pipelines so we can ship more, faster.

Staff Software Engineer at Sibi
Switching to Blacksmith's runners has been a significant upgrade for our development processes at Walnut. They are reliable, significantly faster than GitHub runners, and come at half the cost, helping us optimize both time and budget. The installation and setup were a breeze, making the transition seamless. We highly recommend Blacksmith's server runners to any team looking for a more efficient and cost-effective solution.

SRE Lead at Walnut
We switched from GitHub-hosted runners to Blacksmith and saw
decreased build times because of their better machines and caching.
Our CI costs were also cut by half.
Gautam Gupta
Co-Founder at Highbeam
Blacksmith is a no-brainer if you're using GitHub Actions. It took less than 10 mins to integrate and cut our CI time by 35% and our CI costs by 70%.
Greg Bergé
Product Engineer at GitBook
Blacksmith has been great for our developer velocity - it’s much faster than GitHub runners so our team spends much less time waiting for code to build.
Advith Chelikani
Co-Founder at Pylon
Switching to Blacksmith was a quick one-line change and we saw an immediate 30% improvement in CI time. It was a noticeable upgrade and made it fun to push commit-by-commit again
Gabriel P Samson
Founding Engineer at Slope
Since switching to Blacksmith, our build times are over 65% faster, our costs have gone down and our engineers are more productive.
We couldn't be happier!
