Nebula Drones
Hosted CI runners · GitHub Actions + GitLab CI
Nebula Drones runs your existing GitHub Actions and GitLab CI jobs on isolated, per-job sandboxes. Every job ends with cryptographic proof that its sandbox was destroyed.
2,000 free build minutes every month at launch · no credit card
Link GitHub or GitLab with a token. Your workflows and pipelines stay exactly as they are — Nebula Drones is the runner, not another CI syntax.
Every job executes in its own throwaway sandbox on the Nebula Drones fleet — dedicated servers inside the EU. One job, one container, provisioned for the job and destroyed after it.
Each job carries a tamper-evident audit chain head, recomputable by anyone from the job id alone — including the proof that its sandbox was destroyed.
Every runner, sandbox and audit anchor lives on European infrastructure — not a US cloud. Your source, secrets and artifacts stay under EU jurisdiction, start to finish.
Every runner and sandbox is provisioned on dedicated servers inside the EU — no US hyperscaler, no cross-border compute.
EU-owned and operated, outside the reach of the US CLOUD Act — no third-country transfers to sign off.
Source, secrets, logs and build artifacts stay under EU jurisdiction — and every teardown is provable.
Everyone isolates. Nobody else anchors the runner lifecycle itself.

Prices & corporate structure retrieved 2026-07-06. GitHub/GitLab offer artifact provenance (Sigstore / SLSA) — provenance for what you built, not an anchored trail of where and how it ran. Blacksmith & WarpBuild run EU regions but are US-incorporated (YC / US-VC), and RunsOn is EU-owned yet self-hosts on AWS — all stay reachable under the US CLOUD Act. Only Nebula Drones is EU-owned and on EU infrastructure end-to-end.
Pay for the minutes you build. Reserve extra runners when you need more parallel lanes. A runner is an 8 vCPU / 16 GB host — every job gets its own 2 vCPU / 4 GB sandbox. Prices are net, plus applicable VAT.
The full product, no card required.
One runner, metered. No base fee.
More parallel lanes, held for you.
