Depot — Free Trial for Startups

Deal Highlights

Depot — 20x Faster Docker Builds for CI/CD

Depot is a managed container build service that makes Docker builds dramatically faster. Instead of building containers on your CI runner — fighting with layer caching, slow I/O, and limited CPU — Depot builds on dedicated infrastructure with persistent caching. Builds that took 10 minutes take 30 seconds.

The CI Build Bottleneck

Docker builds in CI are slow because CI runners are ephemeral — every build starts from scratch without cached layers. Depot provides persistent build cache across runs, dedicated CPU and NVMe storage, and native multi-platform support (amd64 + arm64).

How It Works

Replace docker build with depot build in your CI config. Depot handles the rest — persistent cache, fast I/O, and parallel multi-platform builds. One line change, 20x speedup.

Native Multi-Platform Builds

Build amd64 and arm64 images simultaneously on native hardware — not emulated. QEMU-based multi-platform builds take 15 minutes. Depot does it in 2 minutes on native ARM and x86 machines.

Depot vs GitHub Actions Cache

GitHub Actions Docker layer caching is limited and unreliable. Depot provides persistent, fast, and reliable caching that survives across workflow runs and branches.
