In their own words
Bitrise
Bitrise is a mobile DevOps platform that covers development from planning through monitoring. Bitrise CI automates app builds and tests, then deploys mobile apps. Its integrations catalog lists more than 400 ready-to-use workflow steps, grouped across Android, Cordova, Flutter, Ionic, iOS, Java, Kotlin Multiplatform, macOS, React Native, web, and Xamarin. Release Management handles iOS and Android test distribution and store release workflows. Build Cache supports Bazel, Gradle, and Xcode, and integrates with Bitrise CI, CircleCI, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and Jenkins. The free Hobby plan is for a one-person team, with build credits for a small project a few times monthly. Starter begins at $89 a month when billed annually and allows up to four concurrent builds. A 30-day trial includes Pro capabilities and 500 builds total. Bitrise says builds run on clean, isolated virtual machines and files are destroyed afterward; enterprise options include dedicated or self-hosted infrastructure, including in a customer's AWS account, VPC, and region.
