Reviewer scorecard
“Step functions with automatic retries and state management. The event-driven model is perfect for complex workflows.”
“Too expensive for what it offers. Plenty of open-source alternatives.”
“Durable execution without managing queues or state machines. The abstraction level is exactly right.”
“Solid execution. Does what it promises and the DX is clean.”
“Durable workflows are essential infrastructure for AI agents and complex async operations. Inngest is well-positioned.”
“Interesting concept but the execution isn't there yet. Give it 6 months.”
