About the project

Rivet Actors are a primitive for stateful workloads: long-running lightweight processes with in-memory state and automatic persistence, queues, workflows, and WebSockets. Built for AI agents, collaborative apps, and durable execution.

Useful for

Run one actor per AI agent with persistent context and streamed responses
Build a realtime document editor where each document is an actor broadcasting changes
Set up a durable task queue with retries and cron scheduling inside an actor
