trigger.dev

Trigger.dev is an open-source platform for building AI workflows and agents in TypeScript and running them as durable, long-running tasks. You write tasks with its JavaScript/TypeScript SDK, deploy them to Trigger.dev, and get retries, queues, idempotency, observability and elastic scaling without managing workers yourself.

It suits TypeScript teams whose AI features outgrow serverless limits: agents that run for a long time, pipelines that process media, or jobs that need browsers, Python scripts or FFmpeg. Tasks have no timeouts, can pause for human approval, can be scheduled with durable cron, and can stream progress and LLM output to your front end through Realtime and React hooks. Every run is traced and logged, with alerting on errors. You can use the AI frameworks and model providers you already rely on.

Getting started: create a project, install the SDK, define a task and deploy it to Trigger.dev Cloud; the open-source platform can also be self-hosted. The documentation and example projects cover common AI agent patterns.
