Trigger.dev
Open-source background jobs for devs.
- What is Trigger.dev?
- Trigger.dev is an open source background jobs platform for TypeScript, available as a cloud service or self-hosted.
- What does it do?
- Write long-running tasks, cron schedules, and queues as normal code in your repo, then deploy them to run outside your main app. Handles retries, concurrency limits, and steps that survive timeouts, with runs and logs in a dashboard.
- Who is it for?
- Developers building AI pipelines, video and file processing, or scheduled syncs that exceed serverless timeouts and who would rather write code than assemble a visual workflow.
- What are the alternatives to Trigger.dev?
- Inngest is the closest code-first equivalent. Zapier and Make (Integromat) are visual and aimed at non-developers. n8n, Windmill, and Activepieces are self-hostable workflow builders.
