Case Study: ACTO scales fast and simplifies CI/CD with Buddy

ACTO follows up success and quadruples their team backed by the simplicity and power of Buddy

ACTO, a Toronto-based AI-powered SaaS company for life sciences, needed a simple way to scale its development workflow as the team grew from fewer than 10 developers to more than 40 while rebuilding its platform. With no dedicated DevOps engineers and limited time to investigate complex tools, they chose Buddy CI/CD to automate testing, deployment, and maintenance for their PHP-based website.

Buddy helped ACTO set up their CI/CD workflow in about 60 minutes, using pipelines for Elastic Beanstalk deployments, pull request checks, and custom Docker images to keep environments consistent. The result was a streamlined setup that supported rapid team growth and a new platform release without sacrificing quality, while Buddy’s fixed pricing also let ACTO run pipelines frequently without worrying about per-use costs.
