RunnerVPS provides dedicated Mac mini M4 physical machines for development, builds, and experimental workflows. Each order corresponds to one physical machine, with no shared compute resources or local storage, and no virtualization.
Runner refers to build tasks that are continuously submitted, queued, executed, and delivered. It can be a test launched temporarily by an independent developer, a self-hosted runner operated by a team, or a model compatibility experiment that requires a consistent environment.
VPS remains part of the domain and brand identity; it does not mean the product uses virtualized resources. RunnerVPS actually delivers dedicated Apple Silicon Mac mini physical machines: one device per order, with compute resources and local storage not shared with other tenants.
We reduce the effort of choosing with a fixed catalog, clear pricing, and one unified management portal. We do not use unverifiable resource descriptions or present shared capacity as a dedicated machine.
The current catalog includes only m4-16-256 and m4-24-512. m4-16-256 includes M4, 16GB RAM, and a 256GB SSD; m4-24-512 includes M4, 24GB RAM, and a 512GB SSD. The model, memory, and local storage can each be verified before ordering.
The plans page, configuration confirmation page, and order records use the same daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly pricing. Additional storage and Thunderbolt 5 parallel connections are listed separately, without hiding the actual configuration behind vague bundle names.
Locations are identified by city and region rather than broad labels such as “Asia” or “global.” Choose the device location from the five locations currently available in the catalog when placing an order.
Purchasing, order status, device identifiers, rental terms, and support requests are handled through one management portal. This keeps device information from being scattered across email, temporary links, and separate systems, making handoffs easier to track.
Whether renting is right for you depends less on team size than on whether your work requires macOS, a fixed configuration, dedicated resources, and a remotely managed physical machine.
Ideal for preparing a remote Xcode environment for a project, handling code pulls, testing, signed builds, and artifact retrieval. Your personal computer does not need to run overnight builds, and the project environment stays separate from your everyday device.
Ideal for registering a self-hosted runner, limiting project scope, maintaining dependency caches, and returning build artifacts. A dedicated physical machine makes it easier to standardize the toolchain, signing materials, and caching strategy around team policies.
Ideal for validating model compatibility, memory requirements, and local inference workflows on Apple Silicon. Prepare data and install dependencies for each experiment stage, then export results and remove project files before the rental term ends.
Ideal for syncing media, remote previews, cache management, and retrieving exported files. The actual experience depends on media organization, network quality, and remote viewing requirements, so plan the transfer path before comparing individual hardware specifications.
Both Runner M4 and Runner M4 Plus are available in Singapore, Japan (Tokyo), South Korea (Seoul), Hong Kong, and the Eastern United States. These catalog combinations are generally available to order; actual availability is determined in real time by the console.
A device delivery location for development workflows across Asia and across regions.
Two configurationsFor development, build, and remote tasks that require a Japan-based location.
Two configurationsA clearly defined device delivery region for teams in South Korea and nearby areas.
Two configurationsFor project teams that need collaboration and remote connectivity across Asia.
Two configurationsA delivery location for teams in the eastern United States and cross-time-zone automation workflows.
Two configurationsConfirm the device location, model, rental term, and add-ons together before submitting an order. When choosing a location, also consider your team’s location, code repository, dependency sources, and artifact destination.
Clear responsibilities help teams complete verifiable handoffs when connecting for the first time, working day to day, and ending a rental term. Infrastructure support should not be confused with internal project operations.
Prepare your SSH public key, target Xcode version, storage requirements, and expected rental term.
Restrict access permissions and use your own secrets-management process to inject certificates and tokens.
Retrieve build artifacts, then remove keys, accounts, and project data you no longer need.
When asking about the two configurations, location selection, or project rental terms, describe your target workflow, Xcode version, parallel jobs, storage needs, and planned rental term. For access or order issues involving an existing device, submit a request from the console and associate it with the specific device.
All orders are billed in US dollars (USD). We support only USDT-TRC20 and Visa / Mastercard / Amex (via Stripe); actual payment gateways depend on the backend response.
