Question 1

How can Venelx be 10x faster than EAS or Codemagic?

Accepted Answer

Traditional CI/CD providers run builds on shared virtual machines running on older Intel processors or heavily throttled virtualized hypervisors. Venelx provisions raw, bare-metal Apple Silicon M4 Mac runners with direct SSD access and high-bandwidth caching. There is no virtualization overhead.

Question 2

What does 'No Credit Games' mean?

Accepted Answer

Other platforms charge you in artificial 'credits' or 'tokens' where building on iOS costs 4x more credits per minute than Android. Venelx has clean, flat pricing. You pay your monthly subscription and get flat access. No surprise bills.

Question 3

How does the one-click migration work?

Accepted Answer

When you link your GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket repository, Venelx automatically scans the root directory. If it finds an eas.json or codemagic.yaml, our compiler automatically parses the environments, build credentials, and target schemes, setting up your pipelines instantly.

Question 4

Which app frameworks and target platforms are supported?

Accepted Answer

We support iOS, Android, Web, macOS, Windows, and Linux. You can build Expo, React Native, Flutter, Native iOS (Swift/Objective-C), Native Android (Kotlin/Java), Unity, Capacitor, and Cordova applications.

Question 5

Can I use my own signing certificates and provisioning profiles?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Venelx includes a secure, encrypted secrets vault. You can upload your Apple .p12 certificates, provisioning profiles, and Android keystore files. We also support automated fastlane and Expo Credentials syncing.

Question 6

Is there a limit on build concurrency or build minutes?

Accepted Answer

The Free plan includes 20 builds/mo. The Indie plan ($19) includes 150 builds/mo. The Startup plan ($49) includes 500 builds/mo, and the Scale plan ($129) includes unlimited builds. No per-minute pricing, ever.
