Run GitHub Actions on spot VMs in your own AWS, GCP and Azure accounts
A single Backmesh install receives your GitHub queued jobs and dispatches each to its own spot VM in AWS, Google Cloud or Azure.
Cloud connections use roles created from your own CLI session, and Backmesh never receives your code, secrets, caches or logs.
A status command reports runner VMs, queue times, 24-hour and 7-day job stats and month-to-date cost in one place.
Every job log ends with peak memory, OOM kills, CPU and disk usage so you can right-size jobs.
High-efficiency open-weight and hosted reasoning AI powered by DeepSeek-V4 and R1 at ultra-low token costs.
Leverages a sparse Mixture-of-Experts architecture (49B active parameters out of 1.6T on V4-Pro) to process up to 1 million tokens with minimal latency and memory overhead.
Pioneered by DeepSeek-R1 and integrated into V3.2 and V4 thinking modes, exposing step-by-step self-verification for complex math, logic, and code debugging.
Drops input token costs to $0.003/1M on Flash and $0.022/1M on V4-Pro for cache hits, with 50% lower rates during off-peak UTC hours.
Provides free access at chat.deepseek.com and on iOS/Android with document uploads, reasoning mode, and web search without paywalling core models.

Provides stronger multi-modal reasoning and agentic tools, but lacks DeepSeek's ultra-low-cost API pricing.
