Add macOS to your workflow

Write code on Windows,
run the Mac-only steps in the cloud

One cloud Mac for iOS builds, automated CI, model testing, and media editing and exports. Keep your current computer and use macOS through a browser-based desktop, with SSH available for command-line tasks.

Mac mini M4 · 16GB RAM · 256GB SSD, from $20/day. Dedicated physical machine, not a virtual machine.

Start with what you need to deliver

Four workflows, each with a clear path

These are example workflows, not customer results or performance benchmarks. Identify your inputs, tools, and outputs first, then decide whether a configuration fits. Build times, model speeds, and export times depend on your project.

Indie developers · iOS builds

Turn a Flutter project into a testable iOS build

Write your app code on Windows, then use a Mesh M4 on a daily plan for the Xcode archive step. Once your project is on the cloud Mac, restore dependencies and check the target device, signing settings, and build configuration.

Bring
Project source, dependency lockfiles, and required signing materials
On the Mac
Archive and export in Xcode, then upload to TestFlight if your project requires it
Take away
Archive, build logs, and export files you need to keep

Check which Xcode versions your project supports first. A successful archive does not complete distribution; check the upload and processing status separately.

Rent Mesh M4
CI teams · Continuous integration

Run every merge in the same build environment

Rent a Mesh M4 Pro by the quarter and register it as a team build machine. Run the workflow manually first, then add dependency installation, tests, archiving, and artifact uploads to your pipeline. Avoid relying on interactive steps once jobs run unattended.

Bring
Repository access, build scripts, and securely managed pipeline credentials
On the Mac
Accept jobs and run tests and archives with xcodebuild
Take away
Versioned build artifacts, test results, and failure logs

Scale concurrency gradually based on actual memory and disk usage. Clear build caches regularly and sync important artifacts off the machine.

AI testing · Inference comparisons

Evaluate models with 64GB of memory

Choose a Mac mini M4 Pro · 64GB RAM · 2TB SSD and run local inference tools built for Apple Silicon. Check that your model format is supported by the runtime, then compare quantization settings, context lengths, and resource usage.

Bring
Lawfully obtained model files, test inputs, and environment dependencies
On the Mac
Use the same inputs to record inference speed, memory use, and output differences
Take away
Reproducible settings, experiment notes, and result files

64GB is the machine’s total memory—not a guarantee that every model will run. Model weights, context length, and other processes all use available memory.

Audio & video · Transcoding and exports

A place to export projects that require macOS

Install the software you need on the cloud Mac, with the appropriate licenses. Transfer your media and project, then check fonts, plugins, and media references. Edit in the graphical interface or run scriptable transcoding tasks from the command line.

Bring
Source media, project files, plugins, and software license requirements
On the Mac
Check media integrity, set encoding options, and export
Take away
Final exports, audio files, transcoded media, and export settings

Allow time to upload your source media and download the finished files. For color-critical work or low-latency audio monitoring, perform the final review locally.

Test with a short clip before submitting the full job.

Compare the two plans
Cloud Mac · Browser-based remote desktop
macOSProject / archive / artifacts

App project

Run macOS-only steps in the cloud

  1. 01Sync source and dependencies
  2. 02Check archive settings in Xcode
  3. 03Export artifacts and save logs
Local: Windows / LinuxRemote: Dedicated physical Mac
Workflow illustration, not a screenshot of an actual desktop. Check connection details and machine status in your signed-in console.
Your browser is the graphical interface

Use macOS without switching computers

Windows users don’t need to install a remote desktop client. Sign in to the console, then open the browser-based remote desktop from your active instance. Handle graphical tasks in a browser tab and choose a transfer tool that suits your project size.

01

Find your machine.Check your order, instance, and connection details in the console, then select your active cloud Mac.

02

Open the desktop.Launch the browser-based remote desktop for your instance to use macOS and Xcode.

03

Bring your work back.Transfer files using SFTP, your version control system, or your project’s existing artifact storage workflow. Run command-line tasks over SSH.

The browser-based remote desktop is for interactive work, not a replacement for project backups. Keep logs and a way to resume long-running tasks; don’t rely on a single foreground window to track progress.

Match the rental term to the task

Rent by the day for one-off builds; choose a longer term for ongoing CI

Both Mac plans are available by the day, week, month, or quarter. Prices below are in USD. Additional SSD storage and Thunderbolt 5 clustering are priced separately.

Choose a plan, then a rental term

Mesh M4 comes with a Mac mini M4 · 16GB RAM · 256GB SSD, suited to building and testing a single project. Mesh M4 Pro comes with a Mac mini M4 Pro · 64GB RAM · 2TB SSD, suited to building multiple projects and larger experiments. Choose based on performance needs, not just rental length.

Factor transfers and checks into your rental

Allow time to upload source files, install dependencies, download artifacts, and check results. Both plans are available in Singapore, Tokyo, Seoul, and Hong Kong. For responsive desktop use, choose a nearby location; your network also affects the experience.

Payment is available only via USDT-TRC20 or Visa, Mastercard, and Amex (through Stripe). All prices are in USD. Check the console for current payment gateway options and machine availability.

Ready-to-follow task plans

Define acceptance checks before you start

All three task plans are shown together—no switching between tabs. They’re workflows, not delivery-time guarantees. Add your project, tool versions, and acceptance criteria before renting.

01 / Build day

Build an iOS app in a day

For indie developers with code ready to go who just need the macOS archive step.

  • Start: Check the Xcode version and transfer your project and signing materials.
  • Build: Restore dependencies, fix compilation errors, then create an archive.
  • Finish: Download artifacts and logs, check the distribution status, and back up your work.

Mesh M4 · $20/day

Acceptance check: The artifact can be traced to the source revision used for this build.

02 / Iteration week

Run an iteration in a week

For projects that need ongoing fixes and repeated archives without setting up the toolchain from scratch each day.

  • Start: Pin dependencies and build settings, then save a record of a successful build.
  • Build: Validate each change against a commit and record failures and fixes.
  • Finish: Export the final build, organize logs, and check when the instance expires.

Mesh M4 · $54.1/week

Acceptance check: The same configuration can reproducibly generate the required artifact.

03 / CI quarter

Run a team build machine for a quarter

For teams that need consistent tool versions and a machine that continuously accepts build jobs.

  • Start: Register a build agent and restrict repository and credential access.
  • Build: Set job concurrency, clear caches, and back up artifacts off the machine.
  • Finish: Check renewal, update environment documentation, and test recovery procedures.

Mesh M4 Pro · $819.5/quarter

Acceptance check: Jobs run automatically and failures are recorded in accessible logs.
