Hatchet
MIT durable tasks/agents on Postgres; Cloud free tier real
AI Agents / Orchestration · Freemium · 7.9k
What's Good
MIT engine. Queues, retries, durable workflows, DAG-ish pipelines, Python/TS/Go/Ruby SDKs. Hatchet Lite single image for low throughput; Compose + RabbitMQ for prod. Cloud: first 100k task runs/mo free (Developer).
The Catch
Vs Temporal/Inngest/Trigger.dev: Postgres-backed durable tasks + agent runs — not Temporal’s own cluster story, not Inngest/Trigger event-function DX alone. Cloud paid past free run allotment. Self-host is $0 software.
Verdict
MIT durable tasks on Postgres. Cloud free tier real; self-host forever.
