Anvil vs Stackbase

Stackbase built a rental device farm: you queue for a device, hold it for the duration of your test session, and pay per minute it's in your possession. At fleet scale it's a subscription to someone else's hardware bottleneck.

Anvil starts from the opposite premise: the test devices you already own are the fastest, cheapest, most representative devices you'll ever have. The orchestrator discovers them, registers them, and queues runs against them — same dashboard, same replays, same agent runtime. When you need iOS 16.0.2 on the specific SoC you don't own, rent from our shared pool.

The pricing follows: per run, not per minute. A six-minute flaky run costs the same as a forty-six-minute smoke. Your finance team can forecast.
