Orchard vs Corellium
Corellium virtualizes iOS and Android on an Arm hypervisor for security research. Orchard covers the same jobs on emulators and simulators, priced by the hour from day one, with no student-only plan or annual contract in between.

|---|---|---|
| What you get | Virtual iOS and Android: iOS emulator and simulator, Cuttlefish, Ranchu, Goldfish | Virtual iOS and Android on an Arm hypervisor |
| Jailbreak or root | Per device, or run it stock | Jailbroken iOS, rooted Android |
| Snapshot and restore | Branch from any saved state | Snapshots |
| Intercept TLS traffic | Hosted mitmproxy or a tunnel to your Burp | Network Monitor |

| Kernel debugging | Guest-kernel gdb on emulators, rooted mode | Kernel hooks and a gdb / lldb stub |
| Automation | Python and TypeScript SDKs, CLI, MCP server | REST, Python, JavaScript, CLI |
| On-premise deployment | On-premise, scoped with sales | On-site appliances, by quote |
| Real radios, sensors and silicon | Virtual only. Keep a phone for hardware checks | Virtual |
| List price | From $1.50 per device-hour | Solo: $3 per device-hour, students only, one device. Viper and Falcon: annual quote |
You need Corellium's Arm-hypervisor device models specifically, or you already run its on-site appliance.
You want jailbroken iOS and rooted Android with Frida, mitm and kernel gdb, billed by the device-hour from $1.50, and driven from an MCP agent as easily as from a script.
