About Inngest
Inngest is a platform for building agentic workflows and agents powering AI products from experiment to production. It enables developers to write reliable, multi-step code faster without managing infrastructure, by providing durable functions that replace queues, state management, and scheduling.
Inngest is designed to solve the challenges of building reliable software, whether it's an AI agent, a serverless application, or a distributed system. It addresses the time-consuming and frustrating experiences software teams face, such as painful local development and tedious infrastructure management. Inngest aims to eliminate the weeks of developer time lost at every company due to these issues.
The platform offers infraless orchestration, allowing developers to wrap functions in Steps to automate retries, recovery, and flow without added infrastructure. It is designed to be agnostic, running anywhere (edge, serverless, traditional), from any trigger (API calls, webhooks, schedules), on any code (agents, endpoints, cron).
Inngest provides observability, allowing developers to focus on logic rather than instrumentation. Data about runs lives where runs happen, enabling querying, cancellation, or replay without grepping logs across systems. The platform automatically retries on error, ensuring efficient runs via throttling, batching, and prioritization. If something breaks, Inngest picks up where it left off.
Key features include flow control, ensuring a great user experience by dynamically allocating resources to AI workflows with concurrency, throttling, and more. It also offers recovery tools to quickly identify issues with Inngest Cloud alerting and metrics, and rapidly act on thousands of runs with Replay and Bulk Cancellation. Inngest is built for trust, providing enterprise-grade reliability and scalability for complex workflows.
