Xcode
Graphical development, signing checks, builds, and testing
Every order includes one dedicated Apple Silicon physical node, not a virtual machine. After configuration confirmation, node assignment, device checks, and credential generation, the remote Mac desktop is ready in about four minutes.
Use VNC to access the macOS graphical interface, SSH to run command-line tasks, or register a fixed node as a self-hosted Runner. The model, location, term, and add-ons are listed individually before you place an order.
VMOak provides a physical macOS environment with remote access. Software, accounts, plugins, and third-party licenses are not included with the host; your team must confirm license scope and version requirements before use.
Graphical development, signing checks, builds, and testing
Connect a self-hosted execution node to your existing workflow
Manage labels, tokens, caches, and cleanup cycles yourself
Connect to the macOS graphical desktop and complete interactive tasks
Run scripts, manage repositories, and transfer build artifacts
Ideal for session organization, background processing, and audio export
For proxy media, background transcoding, and final export
Supports command-line tools, package managers, and your team's scripts
Remote display quality, file transfer times, and build durations depend on client network conditions, project size, and tool configuration. Test with your team's actual workloads.
Desktop sessions and automated tasks can run on the same dedicated Mac. Each valid order maps to one physical Mac Mini, and nodes are not shared between orders.
Use Xcode through the remote desktop or invoke command-line tools over SSH. Ideal for dependency installation, signing checks, unit tests, packaging, archiving, and artifact export.
Your team is responsible for entering and rotating certificates, repository tokens, and project keys. Do not place them in public scripts or shared caches.
Register a GitHub Actions self-hosted Runner and control labels, secret permissions, build caches, concurrency policies, and workspace cleanup after jobs finish.
A fixed node helps your team schedule usage, but pipeline queues and project duration still depend on the actual workload.
Run local inference, high-memory data processing, and tool validation on the M4 Pro, 64GB RAM, and 2TB SSD environment of VMOak M4 Pro Canopy.
Measure model compatibility, memory usage, and runtime with your framework version, quantization method, and data volume.
Keep using your familiar macOS audio and video toolchain. Move media organization, proxy generation, background transcoding, project checks, and final exports to the remote node.
Plugin licensing, remote monitoring, color decisions, and large media transfers require separate planning by the creative team.
The system confirms the plan and location first, then assigns and checks the physical node. Once the standard process is complete, you can find the access address, username, and temporary credentials in the console and delivery email.
Orders requiring manual review may take longer. Actual availability is determined by the live status returned in the console. Nodes operate continuously year-round with 365-day availability.
Review the model, memory, storage, rental term, and add-ons, and confirm that the order stays within the two catalog plans.
Choose from six locations: Singapore (sg), Tokyo, Japan (jp), Seoul, South Korea (kr), Hong Kong (hk), US East (us-east), and US West (us-west).
Check device startup, network connectivity, storage capacity, system status, and access accounts to confirm the node is ready for delivery.
Issue the access address, username, and temporary credentials. The remote desktop becomes connectable, with instructions to update credentials after the first connection.
Both plans are available across all six locations. Prices are in USD, with daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly terms available. Switch terms to see the applicable catalog price.
Ideal for short remote desktop sessions, everyday Xcode projects, command-line builds, and a single self-hosted Runner.
Ideal for high-memory development, parallel projects, larger build caches, local inference, and continuously running tasks.
Catalog combinations are normally available to order. Actual availability is determined by the live status returned in the console.
| Available models | Singapore | Japan (Tokyo) | South Korea (Seoul) | Hong Kong | US East | US West |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| VMOak M4 Branch | Good availability | Good availability | Good availability | Good availability | Good availability | Good availability |
| VMOak M4 Pro Canopy | Good availability | Good availability | Good availability | Good availability | Good availability | Good availability |
Connect a fixed Mac node to your existing pipeline and start jobs through SSH or a self-hosted Runner. The review log below shows continuous status and does not represent completion times for a specific project.
Your team manages run labels, timeout policies, signing checks, test commands, and artifact upload paths in its own repository configuration. The node executes jobs but does not replace project permission governance.

“We can directly control Runner usage windows and configuration.”Mobile engineering lead
“The remote desktop lets me keep using the macOS toolchain I know.”Audio and video creator
The model, node, term, and add-ons are shown before order confirmation. Access details are generated only after the physical node is assigned and checked. Update temporary credentials after the first connection.
Each valid order maps to an independent physical node, with no device sharing between orders.
The access address, username, and temporary credentials are issued after the node check is complete.
User workloads are separated from the management plane, and support operations are limited to what is necessary.
Models, terms, and add-ons are displayed and billed in US dollars (USD).
Confirm the memory, storage, and location your task requires, then choose a rental term. The catalog contains only two models; no third configuration is created.
Start with VMOak M4 Branch for light builds and short desktop sessions. Choose VMOak M4 Pro Canopy for high-memory development, local inference, and continuous tasks. Before ordering, confirm memory, storage, location, and term.
