Pricing

Cost per Build

Cost per build divides relevant infrastructure and service spending by a defined number of builds. The calculation should state whether retries, failed jobs, storage, and data transfer are included to make comparisons meaningful.

Why it matters

A consistent denominator reveals whether an optimization improves total delivery economics.

Practical example

Compare the cost per successful release, including failed attempts, when assessing a CI optimization.
