CI minutes, build quota & plans
BuildStack meters two things, and they're separate.
The two meters
- Build quota — how many app builds (Android/iOS) you can run per calendar
month.
- CI minutes — minutes consumed by GitHub Actions jobs running on
BuildStack runners (Run CI on BuildStack).
Both reset at the start of each calendar month (UTC).
Where to see usage
- App-build usage: the Usage page and each project.
- CI minutes: the CI runners page shows this month's minutes against your cap,
with an out-of-minutes warning when you're over.
When you hit a limit
- Out of build quota — new builds are refused until the quota resets or you
upgrade.
- Out of CI minutes — new CI jobs stay queued on GitHub (no runner is
provisioned) until minutes reset or you upgrade.
Plans
Higher plans raise both meters (and unlock iOS builds, more concurrency, longer artifact retention, and priority dispatch). Compare and change your plan on the Billing page.
Custom limits
Need an allowance the standard plans don't fit? Contact support — limits can be tailored per workspace.
