About the Company

Trigger.dev is the platform for running reliable AI agents and workflows. Developers use it to build, deploy, and scale production systems with built-in tools for orchestration, scheduling, monitoring, and debugging.

Our Cloud product is a managed service where we deploy our users' code and auto-scale from zero to millions of executions. Today, we serve thousands of teams building AI apps and agents, handling hundreds of millions of executions per month.

Our values

  • We are proud to be open source We believe in the open source community and building a great free-to-use product. We encourage community contributions and are public about what we are building.
  • We ship uncomfortably fast As a startup, moving fast is key. We are pragmatic about what we build, when we build it, and value iterative development above all.
  • Working autonomously We don’t tell you what to do. We decide as a team what will have the biggest impact for our customers and prioritise what we work on from that.
