What it is

Cachely is a managed remote build cache for Nx, Lerna, Turborepo, Gradle, and Bazel. It shares build artifacts between CI runners and developer machines so supported tasks can reuse outputs. Cachely works through the listed remote-cache protocols and supports GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI, Jenkins, Buildkite, Woodpecker, Drone, and self-hosted runners. Its dashboard reports cache hit rate, slow tasks, and estimated CI time and cost savings. Setup involves creating a workspace, generating a token, and configuring the build tool; the maker says this takes about five minutes. Tokens are hashed with SHA-256, scoped to one workspace, revocable, and fixed as read-only or read-write. Artifacts are immutable, content-addressed, served over HTTPS from Cloudflare R2, encrypted at rest, and removed after 20 days. Cachely has a free plan with 1 GiB storage and 500K monthly requests. Team costs $29.99 a month or $24.99 a month billed yearly. Enterprise pricing is custom.
