Company scorecard

Compare companies ↗

Company summary of documented Mac-service commitments. Reference plans and category differences remain explicit. Not an entitlement guarantee for every offer; no price, hardware value, benchmark or identity bonus.

6/6 categories scored · 0/6 with sufficient current evidence · 0/19 underlying criteria resolved · Oldest evidence Sep 24, 2026 · Recheck by Oct 24, 2026. Coverage is not a quality score.

0/3 No evidence · 1/3 Bad · 2/3 Good · 3/3 Excellent. These are our rubric ratings of documented commitments. A zero means insufficient supported evidence, not proven poor service.

Identity source ↗ · Listing policy & limits ↗
SLA protections0/3 · No evidence

No sufficient current, consistent evidence for every required criterion. Missing or disputed findings receive 0; this does not establish that the service is bad.

CI runners · 0/3 · No evidence

Evidence scope: Startup plan ($200/month) — 20,000 included GitHub Actions minutes; macOS runners at $0.08/minute · Needs review

Availability commitment & remedy 0/3 · No evidence

Section J expressly disclaims uninterrupted or continuously available service under the standard terms; this does not establish enterprise add-on entitlements.

No supported finding has been imported for this criterion.

Support access 0/3 · No evidence

A support channel is documented, but its applicable coverage hours remain unknown. Missing hours do not establish a limited-hours grade.

Imported finding (not established): Graded partial from first-party documentation (https://depot.dev/pricing). Note: Support hours and whether email support is 24/7 on Startup are not documented.

Company-wide information is shown here once. Resource-specific support, terms and exceptions are recorded in each listing below. Operator relationships are not independently verified unless the evidence explicitly says so.

Research notes & open questions

Exact installed Xcode versions can lag upstream GitHub images. Dollar currency code, macOS included-minute multiplier and plan-specific custom-image support need verification. Current stock/queue latency is unknown. Verified gap resolution (2026-09-24): CI checklist progressed; 13 criteria graded in the gap-resolution wave. Open-questions follow-up (2026-09-24): Still open: ci.incident_response: What incident severities, response targets, and escalation paths apply to macOS runners?; ci.signing: Does Depot provide a managed Apple-signing and App Store/TestFlight publishing integration, or must users configure workflow steps and credentials themselves?
