Runnable is a hosted continuous integration control plane for teams working with GitHub or Entire repositories. It reads Actions-compatible YAML workflows, validates and plans jobs, schedules dependency-aware execution, and runs builds on isolated Linux x64 machines. Its feature set covers pull-request triggers, GitHub Check Runs, live masked logs, immutable run history, artifacts, dependency caching, matrices, reusable workflows, approvals, concurrency controls, and Slack notifications. That makes it a focused choice for small GitHub teams that want familiar workflow definitions without relying on GitHub-hosted execution alone.

Pricing is organized into five monthly plans. Hobby costs $5 and includes unlimited users and developers, 500 normalized minutes, one concurrent job, seven-day log retention, and 2 GB of artifact storage. Starter costs $29 for 3,000 normalized minutes, three concurrent jobs, 14-day log retention, and 10 GB of artifact storage. Pro is $99 for 10,000 normalized minutes, 10 concurrent jobs, 30-day retention, and 50 GB of artifact storage. Scale is $299 for 30,000 normalized minutes, 30 concurrent jobs, 90-day retention, and 250 GB of artifact storage. Enterprise includes 100,000+ normalized minutes, 100+ concurrent jobs, custom capacity and retention, SAML SSO, and custom support and commercial terms.

Runnable’s strongest distinction is its workflow compatibility layer: compatibility checking and migration pull requests can help teams move from GitHub Actions while retaining familiar syntax. Independent scheduling, dependency-aware execution, reusable workflows, and concurrency controls add operational depth beyond basic build triggering. GitHub is the central ecosystem fit, with integrations for Entire, Cursor Origin, and Slack, plus API access and MCP access for CI observation and run operations. Teams needing Windows or macOS build machines should choose another CI service; teams centered on Linux x64 GitHub workflows should find Runnable the more natural fit.
