Hand off the work
Send one job or a whole batch. Your request can finish while the receipts, reports, or imports run in the background.
Durable jobs
at the speed
of a queue.
Your app has work to do after the request ends. Send a receipt, prepare a report, sync an account—emit gets it to your workers quickly, keeps it safe, and lets people see what happens next.

The request ends.
The work continues.
The queue is only the beginning. emit keeps the job and its updates together, so your app can show progress and a final result without a separate tracking system.
Keep it moving
Run workers where you already run code. If one goes away mid-job, emit can give the work another attempt.
Let people follow along
Report progress as work happens. Show it in your app, inspect the job later, or get a callback when it finishes.
One job, or ten thousand.
An export might be one job. A data import might be thousands. Submit them together so the handoff stays fast, then let your workers take what they can handle. emit holds the rest.
When a worker disappears, emit can retry the job. Its progress and final result stay with it, where your app and your team can find them.
Pay by the job, or by the node.
Start free. Serverless is a small monthly fee per cluster plus a price per job; Dedicated nodes are a flat hourly rate with no per-job charge. Every plan uses the same API, and you’re invoiced monthly. Prices in USD.

Serverless
$5 a month per cluster, plus $3 per million jobs. Includes 5 GB of archive storage. Fair use applies to very large backlogs: past it, new jobs are held back until your workers catch up. The SDKs wait for room for you, for a minute by default. Contact us if you need more.
