About Trigger.dev

Trigger.dev is a developer platform for building and running AI agents and workflows. We provide everything needed to create production-grade agents: an SDK, deploying, scaling, monitoring, and debugging them without needing to manage any infrastructure.

Trigger.dev was created during the Y Combinator W23 batch and launched with the biggest Show Hacker News post from a YC company in the past year. Since then, we’ve amassed over 12,000 GitHub stars and have raised a $3.5M seed round, backed by world-class investors.
