Inngest provides a platform for event-driven durable execution. It combines an event stream, queues, and durable execution into a single reliability layer. Functions trigger from events sent via SDK, API, or webhook. Durable execution supports retries, sleeps, pauses, fan-out, and scheduling across serverless platforms or servers. Flow control includes global resource concurrency, throttling, and prioritization. Observability covers metrics, monitoring, logging, and tracing. AI-specific tools like step.ai.wrap and step.ai.infer add observability to model calls and agentic workflows. AgentKit supports building complex AI workflows.
