BUILT BY A SINGLE SOLOMAKER.
Hi, I'm Senthil Kumar P (@senthiltechspot). I built Venelx — a CI/CD platform for Expo and React Native with flat monthly pricing and Apple Silicon build runners.
About Venelx
Venelx is a CI/CD platform for Expo and React Native mobile apps. Teams connect a Git repository, configure iOS and Android build pipelines in the Venelx dashboard, store build artifacts, publish over-the-air (OTA) updates, and optionally run self-hosted workers on their own Mac, Linux, or Windows machine — install in one command, pair by clicking a link, and the worker auto-updates itself. Venelx also ships an MCP server so AI assistants like Claude and Cursor can trigger builds, tail logs, and check signing status directly. Venelx offers three plans: Free ($0/month, 30 builds), Pro ($49/month, 500 builds, self-hosted workers), and Enterprise (custom limits — contact support@venelx.com).
Mission: one lifecycle, on hardware you own
Venelx started as CI/CD for mobile and web apps on machines you control. The mission now is to cover the rest of the loop: write, version, build, sign and ship from one place. Venelx Workspace adds a real terminal on your own Mac mini, projects and git, web previews, coding agents that use your own login, fine-grained access for teammates, releases and share links, and team analytics. It is built and in testing but not yet released, and some parts (device mirroring, a relay service, disposable virtual machines, a mobile terminal) are not built. See what is built and what is not.
REAL BARE-METAL HARDWARE
Every build compiles directly on physical, bare-metal Apple Silicon M4 chips in my dedicated server cabinets. Virtualized shared clouds slow down package managers and build compilers due to throttled hypervisors. Venelx gives you the raw speeds of dedicated hardware.
SOLO RUN & DIRECT SUPPORT
When you submit a support ticket or request config migrations assistance, you speak directly with me. By remaining a lean, bootstrapped solo company, I keep hosting overhead low, skip the token credit casino schemes, and offer flat monthly subscriptions.
