congratulations on the launch. it looks pretty much like a self-hosted version of https://buildjet.com/for-github-actions



Thanks for commenting.

It seems like buildjet is competing directly with GitHub on price (GitHub has bigger runners available now, pay per minute), and GitHub will always win because they own Azure, so I'm not sure what their USP is and worry they will get commoditised and then lose their market share.

Actuated is hybrid, not self-hosted. We run actuated as a managed service and scheduler, you provide your own compute and run our agent, then it's a very hands-off experience. This comes with support from our team, and extensive documentation.

Agents can even be cheap-ish VMs using nested virtualisation, you can learn a bit more here: https://docs.actuated.dev/add-agent/
