Instantly calculate & cut your GitHub CI/CD bill with AI.
Hey Product Hunt community! đź‘‹ Shubham here.
The Pain Point: As a solo dev, there is nothing scarier than "Bill Shock." I realized developers were blindly running GitHub Actions without realizing that a macOS runner costs 10x more than an Ubuntu runner. By the time you check the billing dashboard, the damage is done.
So, I built GitHub Actions Cost Calculator—a completely free, no-login web tool to fix this.
How it works:
Drop your YAML: Paste your .github/workflows/file.yml (No signup required. Your YAML is NEVER stored).
See the Math: Get the exact cost breakdown (per run, daily, monthly, yearly).
The "Aha!" Moment: See a side-by-side cost comparison across Ubuntu, Windows, and macOS runners.
AI Optimization: Get 5 instant, actionable AI suggestions (with code examples) to cut your CI/CD bill by up to 60%.
It’s completely free to use. I built this to solve my own headache, and I hope it saves your startup some serious server costs.
Drop your heaviest workflow file in the calculator and let me know in the comments how much the AI managed to shave off your monthly bill! Would love your feedback.
