So, what's next?

You can expect significant improvements to the existing platform. Starting with more advanced observability features and faster run starts using MicroVMs. We'll ship more integrations with common third-party services so you can get started faster or get your data out of Trigger.

We raised a Series A, led by @Standard_Cap, with participation from @ycombinator and other world-class investors.

We've also welcomed 3 new team members and are hiring across multiple roles in the UK and Europe (apply on our website!)

We made self-hosting the platform much easier using Docker and Kubernetes, with new self-hosting guides for each...

Our infrastructure upgrades included:
→ GitHub integration that deploys on push and spins up preview branches per PR
→ Multi-region support
→ Static IPs for whitelisting

Realtime Streams v2 fixed most of the pain points: no more chunk limits, auto-reconnects when connections drop, 28-day retention.

Type-safe end-to-end streaming straight to your apps.

We built an MCP server. AI tools like Cursor and Claude can trigger tasks, inspect runs and deploy code. We also added a custom agent rules file so AI-generated task code follows patterns that actually work.

Building with Trigger has never been easier.

v4 shipped with a completely rebuilt run engine. Warm starts are now 100-300ms instead of cold-starting every time.

Waitpoints let you pause a run mid-execution; wait for a webhook callback or human approval, without paying for compute while you wait.

→ Changelog generator agent:
It explores GitHub commits, intelligently fetches diffs on demand, reasons about unclear changes, and produces developer-friendly changelogs.
December 23, 2025 at 5:00 PM
→ GitHub wiki agent:
It clones any public repo and answers questions about the codebase using Claude, with full execution history and retries. Results are streamed live straight to the frontend using Trigger Realtime v2.

→ Claude Agent SDK for agent loops, tools, MCP, and context
→ Trigger for durable execution, retries, streaming, human-in-the-loop and observability

This works well for long-running/multi-step agents.

What’s next: faster runs with MicroVMs, much deeper observability, more integrations, and new primitives for building safer, more capable AI agents.

Deploy with native builds using the --native-build-server flag.

Build logs are streamed directly to the dashboard in real-time, so you can monitor progress of your deployments.
