Hatchet provides the infrastructure and reliability you need to build mission-critical background tasks and workflows.
At Happenstance, Hatchet is the orchestration layer that ties our whole platform together: it powers search, research, enrichment, and engagement. The team is also incredible — often landing features for us the same day we ask.
Josh FaustHappenstanceHatchet strikes the rare balance between reliability and flexibility — giving you durable, fault-tolerant task execution without locking you into rigid workflows.
Distill uses Hatchet to power deep research on millions of people and companies. We've been Hatchet users since day one and have loved the scalability, reliability, and observability of the Hatchet platform.
Tim SuDistillEvery task invocation in Hatchet is stored in a transactionally-safe, durable event log. Recover from application or transient failure — machine crashes, network partitions, or unexpected restarts — without losing work or re-running completed steps.
Automatic retries with configurable backoff and retry limits
Resume workflows exactly where they left off after any failure
Transactionally-safe event log ensures no duplicate or lost work
See every workflow run, step execution, and failure in the Hatchet dashboard. Get alerts when tasks stall, replay failed runs with a single click, and export metrics to your existing monitoring stack.
Real-time visibility into every task and workflow execution
Replay any failed run directly from the UI with one click
Export metrics to Datadog, Grafana, or any OTEL collector

Hatchet SDKs are language-native — no DSLs, no YAML, no new paradigms to learn. Workers run as standard long-lived processes and deploy on the container platform you already use.
