Reviewer scorecard
“No developer API or platform to build on. It's a consumer entertainment product with no B2B play.”
“Durable execution for AI agents means workflows survive crashes and timeouts. Essential for production agent systems.”
“Impressive engagement but no path to serious monetization. The safety concerns with younger users are a liability.”
“AI agents need durability guarantees. Inngest's step functions handle the failure modes that kill naive agent implementations.”
“Character.ai has the best understanding of long-context character consistency. That tech could be transformative if applied elsewhere.”
“Production AI agents require infrastructure that handles failures gracefully. Inngest is building exactly that.”
