Accelerate your CI with Tenki Cloud, a GitHub runners alternative that is 90% cheaper and 30% faster. Migrate in under 2 minutes, and let our Autoscale Runner take care of scaling so you can focus on building.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Hayssem, one of the builders behind Tenki, and today we’re officially launching it — a better, faster, and cheaper way to use runners.
Over the past few months, we’ve seen so many amazing devtool launches here. Today, we’re thrilled to join the party with something we’ve been quietly working on: Tenki - a runner platform that’s 90% more cost-effective and 30% faster than GitHub Actions runners ⚡️
> Why did we build Tenki?
Tenki was born from real conversations with teammates and developer friends who were frustrated by the same things:
“We need a faster and more affordable CI setup — without rewriting everything or managing our own runners.”
GitHub Actions is fantastic… until the costs spike, the queues slow you down, and managing your own runners turns into another full-time job.
So we built Tenki to make GitHub Actions work for modern teams, without the tradeoffs.
> What is Tenki?
Tenki gives you dedicated x64 runners that are: ✅ Up to 90% cheaper ✅ Up to 30% faster in execution ✅ Easy migration — use our Migration Wizard and migrate jobs in 2 clicks ✅ Zero-maintenance — choose the Autoscale offering and let us handle resource scaling for you
Whether you’re: 🪖 Running unit tests on a lean 2-core setup 🐳 Building Docker images or compiling large codebases on 8 or 16 cores 🐢 Or just tired of queue times and slow builds…
Tenki has a tier that fits — and it just works.
> 🎁 Special for Product Hunt users
As a thank-you for checking us out on Product Hunt, we’re offering: ✨ One week of free runner usage 💰 Plus $10 in renewable monthly credits for all users
This is our very first Product Hunt launch, and we couldn’t be more excited to share it with you. We’d love your feedback, support, and ideas for what to build next.
I'm Eddie, and after years of lurking in the Producthunt shadows, watching incredible launches unfold on here, I'm finally stepping into the spotlight with something I've been obsessing over.
Picture this: It's 2am on a Thursday. My engineering team texts me: "The build pipeline is down. Again."
I rolled out of bed, opened my laptop, and stared at the all-too-familiar sight — our GitHub Actions runners had choked on yet another resource-intensive job. The worst part? We were paying a fortune for infrastructure that couldn't keep up when we needed it most.
That night, as I manually spun up additional runners (for the third time that week), I couldn't shake one thought: There has to be a better way.
Over the next few months, I dove deep into the world of CI/CD infrastructure. I talked to dozens of engineering teams. The stories were eerily similar:
"We're spending 5x our AWS bill just on runners"
"Our builds take forever during peak hours"
"Someone has to babysit the infrastructure constantly"
After a decade of building and watching tech companies rise and fall, one pattern became crystal clear: The teams that ship fast, win. But antiquated testing infrastructure was holding everyone back.
That's when Tenki was born. Not in a boardroom or a pitch deck, but in the trenches of real engineering pain.
We built Tenki to be what we desperately needed that night:
Blazing fast: 30% performance boost out of the box
Ridiculously affordable: Up to 90% cost reduction (yes, really)
Zero maintenance: Auto-scaling that actually works
The magic? Just a few clicks to migrate from GitHub Actions. No more 2am infrastructure emergencies. No more budget meetings about runaway CI costs.
Today marks a huge milestone for our small team. We're sharing a piece of our journey from frustrated engineers to (hopefully) problem solvers.
Tenki adapts as your workflows evolve, because we know that today's perfect setup is tomorrow's bottleneck. We've lived it.
If you've ever cursed at a stuck build, winced at your CI bill, or lost sleep over flaky runners, Tenki is for you.
We'd love to hear your war stories, your feedback, and yes, even your feature requests. Because the best products aren't built in isolation... they're forged in the fire of real-world use.
Here's to faster builds, smaller bills, and more time doing what we love: shipping great software.
We re thrilled to launch Tenki on Product Hunt today Your support means the world to us if you like what we ve built, we d love for you to upvote and leave us a review. Thanks for being part of our journey!
