About

Inngest is the durable workflow engine that lets you build reliable applications without queues or infrastructure. Write functions, deploy anywhere, run reliably.

Target Audience: Backend and full-stack developers use Inngest to run background jobs, webhooks, and multi-step workflows directly from application code without managing queues or worker infrastructure. Platform and DevOps teams adopt it to make asynchronous systems more reliable while keeping deployment and scaling simple.
Not ideal for: Teams looking for a no-code automation app or a heavyweight BPMN business-process suite should not use Inngest, because it is built for developers writing workflow logic in code.

What makes it different

  • Durable, step-based execution that checkpoints progress so workflows can resume after failures or timeouts.
  • Event-driven and scheduled functions that let developers trigger workflows from app events, cron-like schedules, and external webhooks.
  • No queue infrastructure required: orchestration is handled by Inngest while application logic stays in code.
  • Deploy-anywhere model with SDKs for integrating into existing applications instead of forcing a separate workflow DSL or monolithic platform.
