About Trigger.dev

Trigger.dev is the open-source platform for building AI workflows in TypeScript. Long-running tasks with retries, queues, observability, and elastic scaling.

The platform designed for building AI agents

Build AI agents using all the frameworks, services and LLMs you're used to, deploy them to Trigger.dev and get durable, long-running tasks with retries, queues, observability, and elastic scaling out of the box.

• Long-running without timeouts: Execute your tasks with absolutely no timeouts, unlike AWS Lambda, Vercel, and other serverless platforms.

• Durability, retries & queues: Build rock solid agents and AI applications using our durable tasks, retries, queues and idempotency.

• True runtime freedom: Customize your deployed tasks with system packages – run browsers, Python scripts, FFmpeg and more.

• Human-in-the-loop: Programmatically pause your tasks until a human can approve, reject or give feedback.

• Realtime apps & streaming: Move your background jobs to the foreground by subscribing to runs or streaming AI responses to your app.

• Observability & monitoring: Each run has full tracing and logs. Configure error alerts to catch bugs fast.

Key features:

• JavaScript and TypeScript SDK - Build background tasks using familiar programming models
• Long-running tasks - Handle resource-heavy tasks without timeouts
• Durable cron schedules - Create and attach recurring schedules of up to a year
• Trigger.dev Realtime - Trigger, subscribe to, and get real-time updates for runs, with LLM streaming support
• Build extensions - Hook directly into the build system and customize the build process. Run Python scripts, FFmpeg, browsers, and more.
• React hooks - Interact with the Trigger.dev API on your frontend using our React hooks package
• Batch triggering - Use batchTrigger() to initiate multiple runs of a task with custom payloads and options
• Structured inputs / outputs - Define precise data schemas for your tasks with runtime payload validation
• Waits - Add waits to your tasks to pause execution for a specified duration
• Preview branches - Create isolated environments for testing and development. Integrates with Vercel and git workflows
• Waitpoints - Add human-in-the-loop judgment at critical decision points without disrupting workflow
• Concurrency & queues - Set concurrency rules to manage how multiple tasks execute
• Multiple environments - Support for DEV, PREVIEW, STAGING, and PROD environments
• No infrastructure to manage - Auto-scaling infrastructure that eliminates timeouts and server management
• **[Automatic retries](
