Serverless platform for AI agents, APIs, cron jobs, and webhooks

If you ship serverless APIs, webhook processors, cron jobs, or background jobs, the usual split is glue between schedulers, gateways, and ad-hoc VMs—hard to observe and risky when traffic spikes. Inquir runs those workloads as Node.js, Python, or Go functions behind one API gateway, with pipelines, jobs, observability, and optional hot containers in one workspace.

Deploy AI agents, APIs, cron jobs, and webhooks without Kubernetes

Inquir Compute is a serverless platform for running AI agents, API endpoints, cron jobs, and webhook processors — without Kubernetes or DevOps overhead. Write a function in Node.js, Python, or Go, deploy in one click, and get a live endpoint immediately. Built-in API Gateway, cron scheduling, per-function environment variables, and observability are included out of the box.

Inquir is designed for startups, SaaS teams, and product engineers who need to ship backend logic fast. Hot containers reduce cold-start impact on recurring traffic but do not erase cold paths on first deploy or after idle scale-down—isolated execution keeps workloads secure, and predictable per-invocation pricing makes costs easier to reason about. From AI pipelines to Stripe webhooks, Inquir covers the use cases teams usually stitch together manually.

Choose your path

Pick one starting point, deploy it, then add orchestration only when you need it.

Public HTTP work

Build authenticated webhook handlers first, then expand to route groups and API slices.

Scheduled backend work

Use the same functions and secrets for nightly jobs, recurring syncs, and scheduled pipelines.

Decision support

Use comparison pages to self-qualify quickly before planning a pilot migration.

Same deploy path across runtimes — add streaming and observability when you need them.

One serverless platform for Node.js, Python, and Go

From idea to live API endpoint — without touching infrastructure.

Write

Code your function in the browser. Node.js, Python, or Go.

Deploy

Click deploy. Hot containers warm frequent routes; first spin-up can still be a cold path.

Call

Your function is a live API endpoint. Call it from anywhere.

This is what deploying looks like — from code to live endpoint.

Use cases: AI agents, webhook processors, background jobs, REST APIs

Pick your use case and go live in minutes.

AI Agent

Summarize pages, process documents, run LLM pipelines

Cron Job

Scrape prices, send reports, sync data — on schedule

Webhook Processor

Process Stripe, GitHub, Slack events with built-in retry logic

Common questions

Is it really free to start?

Yes. The Free tier is free forever — 10K invocations/mo, hot containers, full API Gateway. No credit card required.

Do I need Docker or Kubernetes?

No. Write a function, click Deploy, get a URL. Inquir handles containers under the hood.

How is it different from Vercel or Cloudflare Workers?

Inquir runs real containers — full Node.js 22, Python 3.12, or Go 1.22. Any npm package, up to 5 min runtime, pre-built AI layers. Edge runtimes can't do that.

What happens if I exceed my invocation limit?

On Free, extra invocations are rejected gracefully — no surprise bills. On paid plans we notify you before any action.

Is my code secure?

Each function runs in an isolated container with no network access by default. You configure per-function environment variables in the editor; observability masks common secret-like patterns in logs and traces.
