Workloads

Typical workloads

Not a generic cloud desktop—predictable macOS bare metal

Pipelines & signing

Xcode, Fastlane, self-hosted runners—move the heavy steps off your laptop.

  • Parallel multi-scheme archives
  • Pre-TestFlight checks
  • Certs and profiles isolated

Pixels & models

Transcode, 3D bakes, on-device inference—GPU and Neural Engine without virtualization tax.

  • ProRes / HEVC batch
  • Blender / Unity CLI
  • Small models always on

Remote workstation

VNC + SSH—swap “the office Mac” for the one in the rack.

  • Pinned toolchain versions
  • Big-screen debug without local fan noise
  • Shared baseline for distributed teams

Assurance

Clear service boundary

Availability commitment

99.9% SLA posture; credits per agreement if missed.

Engineer on-call

Tiered tickets; urgent path via duty channel, median first response <1h (business hours).

Data & images

Encrypted block storage; snapshots and routine backups (plan-dependent).

Automated delivery

Order-driven provisioning—less queueing and back-and-forth.

Getting started FAQ

Each slot is an Apple Mac mini with full hardware and native macOS—not a multi-tenant virtual desktop.
Standard SKUs usually finish in minutes on automation; custom items may take longer. Track status in the console order page.
Console → device details show IP, port, and account. Example: ssh user@host -p port. Prefer key-based login.
The detail page issues a one-time address and password; works with Screen Sharing and common VNC clients—passwords rotate; follow the console.
In-console tickets first; footer email for business. Check the help center to save round trips.
