Bencher
Continuous benchmarking to catch performance regressions before they merge.
Bencher is a continuous benchmarking tool that runs benchmarks on dedicated bare metal hardware, locally and in CI, to reduce noise from shared runners. It tracks benchmark results over time, detects performance regressions with customizable analytics, and reports results as PR comments so issues surface during code review rather than in production.
The bencher CLI orchestrates benchmark runs and stores results, while the web console lets you monitor, query, and graph results by source branch and testbed. Bencher supports a range of benchmark harnesses across Rust, C++, Python, Java, C#, JavaScript, Go, Ruby, Dart, and Shell, and integrates with CI pipelines. It is available as open source self-hosted software deployable on bare metal, Docker, or Kubernetes, and as a hosted cloud service with on-demand bare metal runners.
Bencher is aimed at engineering teams working on performance-critical projects. Packaging includes a free plan for open source and public projects, a Pro plan with a one-month trial billed by active benchmark series, and an Enterprise edition with SSO, on-premise deployment, and dedicated or custom runners. Self-hosted deployments are licensed annually by quantity, with no per-seat pricing.
