Celesto CI launched as a drop-in replacement for GitHub Actions managed runners, claiming to be 12x cheaper than GitHub Actions and 8x cheaper than Blacksmith, and built for agents. Setup: authorize GitHub, then change the runner label to [self-hosted, celesto-cloud]—logs stay in GitHub. Its Micro runner costs $0.0005/min (1 vCPU/2GB) vs GitHub's standard $0.006/min (2 vCPU/8GB), though the company notes the multiplier compares listed rates, not equivalent hardware. A $5 trial covers 166 hours.
