WebhooksIntroducing webhooks for AI agents

Build and deploy durable AI agents and workflows

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

Start building now
// Durable AI chat agent: survives refreshes, redeploys, and crashes
const tools = {
searchDocs: tool({
description: "Search the product docs",
inputSchema: z.object({ query: z.string() }),
execute: async ({ query }) => searchIndex(query),
}),
refundOrder: tool({
description: "Refund an order",
inputSchema: z.object({ orderId: z.string() }),
needsApproval: true, // pauses for human approval; the run stays alive
execute: async ({ orderId }) => payments.refund(orderId),
}),
};
export const supportAgent = chat.agent({
id: "support-agent",
tools, // declared once, threaded everywhere and typed in run()
run: async ({ messages, tools, signal }) =>
streamText({
// Wires the system prompt, tool approval (HITL),
// compaction, mid-turn steering, and telemetry
...chat.toStreamTextOptions({ tools }),
model: anthropic("claude-sonnet-4-5"),
messages,
abortSignal: signal,
stopWhen: stepCountIs(15),
}),
});

Build durable AI agents that survive refreshes, redeploys, and crashes. Stream to your frontend with no API routes, plus tool calling, human-in-the-loop, and full observability.

Read customer story

“We run millions of workflows a month on Trigger.dev: orchestration, calendar sync, an AI agent for phishing, fraud, and billing. Encrypted snapshots keep PII out of the platform, retry.onThrow handles the failures we expect, and batched replays handle the ones we don't.”

Deploy and scale to any size

No timeouts

Write simple, reliable code and never hit a timeout.

Pay for what you use

Only pay when your code is actually executing.

No servers to manage

We deploy your tasks and handle scaling for you.

Find and fix bugs fast

Alerts for errors

Get notified via email, Slack or webhooks when your tasks or deployments fail.

Alerts for errors

Advanced filtering

Find runs fast using advanced filtering options, then apply bulk actions to multiple tasks at once.

Bring your tasks to the foreground

Trigger.dev Realtime

Display the status of your tasks anywhere in your app

Show the run status (in progress, completed, failed) and metadata to provide real-time, contextual information for your users as your tasks progress.

Realtime docs

Update your UI in real-time with the run status

Realtime streams

Stream LLM responses from your runs to your users

Forward streams from any provider through our Realtime API. Build AI agents with tools and context from your runs.

Trigger.dev is one of those tools that you set up once (takes like 30 minutes) and then never have to worry about again. We use it heavily at Magic Patterns and wish we used it earlier. Previously, we had a homegrown cron job solution.. not good.

We migrated from an AWS background job service that required a dedicated expert for maintenance. Trigger.dev's TypeScript support, simplicity and visual feedback let us focus on making AI excellent at UI creation instead of managing infrastructure.

Trigger is a central part of our architecture. It’s allowed us to build a resilient system to orchestrates data across multiple systems. We love its observability, replayability, and how easily it slots into our existing codebase. It allows us to refine over time how to set the boundaries between async tasks and synchronous business logic.

Trusted publishing for GitHub Actions

With trusted publishing, only the GitHub repository, branch or environment you choose can deploy to your Trigger.dev project.

November 11

Custom access and saved presets for API keys

Choose exactly what each API key can do, save presets for your team, and see what each key uses.

November 11

Workload identity (OIDC)

Your tasks can now prove who they are, so services like Anthropic don't need a stored API key.

November 9

The Bun runtime, now even bunnier

Bun 1.4.4, a 25% smaller deploy image, checkpoints that work end to end, and a retirement date for the old Bun runtime.
