What is Inngest?
Durable execution platform pushes into low-latency runtime and AI-agent developer workflows.
Inngest is a durable workflow execution platform built around a TypeScript SDK. The last six months ran two strategic bets in parallel: chasing AI-workflow latency (Checkpointing cut workflow duration by 50%, then Durable Endpoints extended durability into plain API handlers) and making the platform a first-class target for AI coding agents (Dev Server MCP, Agent Skills, markdown docs URLs). TypeScript SDK v4 GA in March consolidated this as the default experience.
What is ToolJet?
ToolJet ships Custom Component Library and tightens enterprise controls on path to AI-native low-code.
ToolJet is running two parallel tracks: an LTS branch delivering incremental reliability and plan-level limit expansions, and a beta track already carrying LLM provider switching, MCP bundled into the EE image, Personal Access Tokens, and 2FA. The gap between beta and stable is where the platform's real direction lives — AI builder + enterprise security controls converging into a single product.

Inngest
0.0INFRA · APIS
Durable execution platform pushes into low-latency runtime and AI-agent developer workflows.
◆ Current state
Inngest is a durable workflow execution platform built around a TypeScript SDK. The last six months ran two strategic bets in parallel: chasing AI-workflow latency (Checkpointing cut workflow duration by 50%, then Durable Endpoints extended durability into plain API handlers) and making the platform a first-class target for AI coding agents (Dev Server MCP, Agent Skills, markdown docs URLs). TypeScript SDK v4 GA in March consolidated this as the default experience.
◆ Where it's heading
Inngest is broadening from 'workflow engine' to 'durability primitive any TypeScript handler can wrap with step.run().' Realtime moving into the core SDK and Durable Endpoints both shrink the surface gap between 'calling Inngest' and 'writing a normal handler.' The AI-agent investments suggest they expect new project onboarding to happen via a coding agent installing skills, not a developer reading docs.
◆ Prediction
Expect Durable Endpoints to graduate from public beta (currently Next.js and Bun only), realtime APIs to expand to more frontend integrations, and the Agent Skills set to grow into the longer tail of testing, deployment, and debugging workflows.
ToolJet
6.3INFRA · APIS
ToolJet ships Custom Component Library and tightens enterprise controls on path to AI-native low-code.
◆ Current state
ToolJet is running two parallel tracks: an LTS branch delivering incremental reliability and plan-level limit expansions, and a beta track already carrying LLM provider switching, MCP bundled into the EE image, Personal Access Tokens, and 2FA. The gap between beta and stable is where the platform's real direction lives — AI builder + enterprise security controls converging into a single product.
◆ Where it's heading
The consolidation of tooljet-mcp into the EE production image is the clearest signal: ToolJet is treating MCP as a first-class integration layer, not an experiment. PATs threading through groups, workflows, plugins, and MCP auth suggest an API-first model is being built on top of the visual layer. The Custom Component Library core gives power users the extensibility path that previously required forking the platform.
◆ Prediction
LLM provider switching and MCP-based datasource connectivity will stabilize to LTS within the next few releases — both are already merged in EE. Once stable, these features position ToolJet against agentic-workflow tools as much as against no-code competitors.
