For Engineering Managers

Finally know where your team's CI budget actually goes

Stop defending CI costs you can't explain. Get instant visibility into which workflows, projects, and teams drive your GitHub Actions spend.

Join 200+ engineering leaders on the waitlist.

Sound familiar?

"Our GitHub bill jumped 40% last month and I have no idea why."

"Leadership wants to cut CI costs but I don't know where to start."

"I can't tell which team's workflows are the most expensive."

"Our CI costs scale faster than our headcount. That can't be right."

GitHub's billing page wasn't built for engineering managers

You get one number: total minutes used. That's it. No breakdown by team, project, or workflow. No way to spot inefficiencies. No data to make informed decisions about where to optimize.

Why now?

Three trends are making CI cost visibility essential for engineering managers.

GitHub's March 2026 pricing changes

GitHub is introducing a ~$0.002/minute platform charge on self-hosted runners. If you're running thousands of minutes daily on self-hosted infrastructure, you'll see a new line item on your bill. Time to get visibility before the change hits.

CI costs grow faster than headcount

As teams adopt more automation, run more tests, and deploy more frequently, CI costs compound. Without visibility, you won't know it's a problem until it's a big problem.

Cost optimization is the new mandate

In the current economic climate, engineering leaders are being asked to do more with less. CI spend is one of the few areas where you can find meaningful savings without impacting velocity.
