1,000 minutes: $6 on GitHub, $1.20 on Jog.

5,000 free minutes every month

While you have credits.

## Questions

- Do I change anything else?
- Not in your workflows, beyond runs-on. Jobs run on Ubuntu 24.04 with GitHub's runner tools, less a few large ones; a job that uses one needs a step that installs it.
- Which sizes can I use?
- Any of these. Coming from a larger GitHub runner? Use the size with the same vCPUs.runs-on vCPU RAM Per minute jog 2 8 GB $0.0012 jog-4vcpu 4 16 GB $0.0024 jog-8vcpu 8 32 GB $0.0044 jog-16vcpu 16 64 GB $0.0088 jog-32vcpu 32 128 GB $0.0176
- Where do my jobs run?
- On hardware we run ourselves: every job gets a fresh VM sized to it.
- Does it work with personal GitHub accounts?
- Yes. Add your own GitHub account, and Jog runs its private repositories the same way it runs an organization’s.
- Are there free minutes?
- Yes: 5,000 a month while you have credits, used first. Bigger machines use them faster.
