Today we’re introducing an important change to how Semaphore pricing works.

CICD is no longer something that runs occasionally during development. For many teams, it’s now always-on infrastructure that powers software delivery.

To support this shift, we’re introducing a new Semaphore pricing model designed to keep CICD fast, scalable, and affordable as usage grows.

The new model separates compute infrastructure from support and success services, giving teams more transparency and flexibility in how they use Semaphore.

Key updates include:

Semaphore’s fastest runners are now available at significantly reduced prices, starting at $0.0075 per minute.

Our new f1 machines replace the previous e1 and e2 runners, focusing the platform on high-performance compute optimized for CICD workloads.

Self-hosted agents are no longer billed per developer seat.
Instead, usage is priced purely based on compute time at $0.0025 per minute.

Infrastructure pricing now reflects compute consumption only.
Teams can choose optional Support and Success plans depending on their operational needs and level of optimization guidance.

Teams can now combine:

  • Compute infrastructure

  • Support plans for operational reliability

  • Success plans for performance optimization

  • On-demand engineering assistance

This modular model makes it easier to scale Semaphore alongside your CICD usage.

Nothing changes immediately.

You can continue using your current plan as-is, and when you’re ready, you’ll be able to switch to the new pricing structure directly in the app.
