Dedicated Mac · Apple Silicon

Xcode cloud builds,
running on
dedicated physical Macs.

Rent a Cloud Mac for iOS CI, project builds and remote development. Each physical machine is dedicated to your use—not shared with other customers. Your team manages toolchains, signing materials and build results to suit each project.

3 configurations · 5 locations · from $19.5/day

Build environment ready · workflow preview

Connect remotely to run Xcode builds, use a macOS CI runner and manage projects and artifacts your way. The sample receipt below illustrates the steps; it does not represent a real customer job or a default setup.

BUILD RECEIPT / Commands, output and paths are examples. Dependencies, signing and build results depend on your environment.

A build with a path you can verify

Connect to a machine. Retrieve your artifacts.

A dedicated physical Mac fits into your existing workflow. Connect remotely, trigger jobs and check output in one place. The interface below illustrates how tasks relate.

Physical Mac, not a VM

Configure your environment;
stay in control of every build.

Check your project’s Xcode version, dependencies and signing materials first. To automate builds, add the physical machine to your existing CI workflow. Your team controls runner permissions, secret storage and artifact retention.

Read the build and CI setup guide ↗

This interface is illustrative. It does not show a customer job or default configuration, and is not a production environment ready to run without adjustments.

Choose a configuration for your workload

Three configurations. Pick what fits.

All plans include a dedicated Apple Silicon physical Mac, not a VM. Daily and monthly prices are shown here; check the full plans for weekly and quarterly rates and storage add-ons.

Plans start at $19.5/day. Rent by the day, week, month or quarter. Confirm current order terms in the console.

Key facts to check before deployment

Check your deployment requirements
before you start building.

Review the model, location and rental term before ordering. Rather than relying on unverified speed claims, measure performance against your own project’s build baseline.

Find the right machine for your toolchain

Your workflow,
which Mac fits?

From a one-off Xcode build to ongoing CI jobs, compare toolchains, access methods and resource needs before choosing a configuration. Measure build times under consistent conditions for each project.

01

Xcode cloud builds

Check out your project remotely, verify dependencies, Xcode version and signing settings, then build on a dedicated machine and archive artifacts by path. Establish a baseline with a repeatable task before deciding how to run builds day to day.

02

macOS CI runner

Add the machine to your existing CI workflow and route builds by job tags. Your team remains responsible for runner registration, execution account permissions, credential injection and failure log retention.

03

Remote development

Use SSH for scripts, logs and file operations; use Remote Desktop when you need the Xcode GUI. The Cloud Mac provides a development environment; an iOS test device is not included.

04

Apple Silicon testing

Check dependency compatibility, command-line tools and project scripts on the target architecture. Record tool versions, inputs and outputs to compare results with your local environment.

From choosing a Mac to your first build

Before you begin, line up the essentials.

STEP 01 / SELECT

Choose a model and location.

Compare memory and storage across the three configurations. Choose a deployment location based on your team, time zones and existing CI entry points. All listed combinations can be ordered; check live availability and order terms in the console.

STEP 02 / CONNECT & BUILD

Connect and run a build.

Once you have the connection details from your order, check Xcode, dependencies and project permissions, then run a test build. Review error logs, verify the artifact path and decide whether to automate the job.

Common questions before ordering

Questions? Get the details before you order.

Configurations, connectivity and billing should all have clear criteria to check. Project compatibility depends on your dependencies and signing workflow.

Browse all FAQs ↗
Is this a virtual machine?

No. All three plans provide remote use of a dedicated physical Mac; renting does not transfer ownership of the device. Manage project files and build credentials according to your team’s policies.

How do I connect to a Cloud Mac?

Use SSH from the command line or Remote Desktop, depending on your task. Your order will include the connection details.Read the remote access guide ↗

What rental terms and payment methods are available?

Rent by the day, week, month or quarter; check add-ons separately. We accept USDT-TRC20 and Visa / Mastercard / Amex (via Stripe) only. All prices are charged in US dollars (USD); payment options depend on gateway availability.
