Frequently asked questions
Got a question that's not on our list? Want a demo? Just want to chat? Get in touch.
What is the All Access Trial?
The All Access Trial gives every new Buildkite signup 30 days of full platform access — Pipelines, Test Engine, Package Registries, and Hosted Agents — with no credit card required. You get a dedicated Developer Success Engineer to help you get started and can request additional features or capacity at any time.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. The All Access Trial is completely free for 30 days with no credit card required. You only enter payment details if you choose to upgrade to Pro after your evaluation.
Can I get an Enterprise POC during evaluation?
Yes. Contact your DSE or reach out to Sales at any time during your evaluation to discuss Enterprise features, custom pricing, or a dedicated proof-of-concept.
What's a DSE?
DSE stands for Developer Success Engineer. Your DSE is a dedicated Buildkite team member assigned to your organization during the evaluation period. They help with onboarding, pipeline setup, CI migration, and can unlock additional features or increase your hosted agent limits on request.
What is an agent?
A build agent (commonly referred to as a runner) runs on your infrastructure or on Buildkite-hosted compute, and runs one build job at a time. You can run as many agents as you want, in the same or separate queues, and Buildkite will coordinate the work between them. Agents can be securely and reliably deployed across different networks and environments.
Who counts as an active user?
Active users are unique users that access the Buildkite system in any given month. Accessing the system includes logging into Buildkite.com, interacting with the Buildkite API, or triggering a build.
How does Buildkite bill for concurrent agent usage?
We use a 95th percentile (P95) billing method for self-hosted agent usage. This approach ensures fair billing by focusing on your typical usage while disregarding occasional spikes.
To accomplish this, we measure your self-hosted agent usage daily, and at month's end, ignore the top 5%. This provides a more stable and predictable billing experience, and reflects your consistent usage patterns rather than rare peak events.
Buildkite hosted agents are not subject to concurrent agent usage fees.
What are the pricing tiers for Buildkite Package Registries?
For Package Registries, cost per GB for storage and bandwidth decreases with increasing usage volume.
Storage and transfer are included with every plan — see the plan comparison above for the amount included on your plan. Beyond your included amount, additional usage is billed at:
- Tier 1: 1,000GB @ US$1.25 per GB
- Tier 2: 2,500GB @ US$1.00 per GB
- Tier 3: 5,000GB @ US$0.75 per GB
- Tier 4: 20,000GB @ US$0.50 per GB
- Tier 5: 50,000GB @ US$0.25 per GB
Additional volume-based discounts are available to Enterprise customers. Contact us to learn more.
Are there any limits to scale or concurrency with Buildkite?
There are no limits to the number of concurrent self-hosted agents in the Buildkite Platform.
Concurrency limits will apply by default for all organizations using Buildkite hosted compute. Contact us for custom limits.
