Are you hosting or am I? The marketing implies that I’m hosting but your FAQ, at the bottom, says you are. Can you please clear up?



Currently we are hosting, but we are going to be documenting how to self host in the near future so you can host it yourself.


In the meantime, maybe remove "Your workflows run on your servers, not ours. We only receive the data you choose to send to us." from your front page marketing?


The website is correct, it's just a bit confusing so I'll explain more here:

The workflow code is in your codebase and runs on your servers, we don't host that.

We host the service that triggers your code (using events like scheduled, webhooks, customEvents) and that you can call using our SDK to do requests, logging and delays inside the workflow (e.g. using our Slack integration or using our fetch that auto-retries with exponential back-off). We also host the web app that you use to authenticate with APIs, show all of your runs with associated data and any errors.

Soon we will add a self-hosted guide so that you can also choose to host the Trigger.dev service yourself too. It's a bit hard to explain, hopefully this clears things up!


lol, I need a diagram.
