why would I pay for builds when its free to use my cpu? any company worth somthing is going to give you a decent machine. if you don't have a decent machine you wouldn't have the $$ to pay for remote builds. I could see a use case for very large projects.

Thank you for your feedback. There are two main benefits: 1. Your resources(especially memory) are free for using other apps like Figma, Emulator, etc. Also, during the build, your machine is workable. 2. Faster build: Because we build the codes continuously in the background, next build will be much faster. Regular Android projects take minutes to build with Buildman will take seconds.
