Inferable provides a managed, durable execution runtime for building AI workflows and agents. It targets developers needing to integrate human-in-the-loop approvals, ensure structured outputs from LLMs, and manage versioned, long-running processes. The primary benefit is enhanced reliability and control for complex AI-driven applications.

How It Works

Inferable utilizes a long-polling mechanism to connect to user infrastructure, enabling workflows to execute within the user's own environment, including behind firewalls. This approach avoids the need for inbound port openings and allows for self-hosting. Workflows are defined using SDKs (currently Node.js/TypeScript and Go) and can incorporate human approvals via Slack or email, with automatic parsing, validation, and retries for LLM-generated structured outputs. Versioning ensures backward compatibility during updates.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Install/Run: SDKs available via NPM (Node.js/TypeScript) and Go packages.
• Prerequisites: Node.js or Go environment.
• Resources: No specific hardware requirements mentioned beyond standard development environments.
• Links: Quick start, Workflows, Human-in-the-Loop, Structured Outputs, Self-hosting guide.

Highlighted Details

• Workflows execute within user infrastructure, supporting private VPCs and firewalls.
• Supports human-in-the-loop approvals via email or Slack.
• Automatic parsing, validation, and retries for LLM structured outputs.
• Versioned workflows for backward compatibility and gradual rollouts.

Maintenance & Community

• Active development indicated by NPM and Go package version badges.
• Community contributions are welcomed.

Licensing & Compatibility

• MIT License. Permissive for commercial use and integration with closed-source applications.

Limitations & Caveats

The CLI tool is currently in alpha. .NET SDK is experimental. Language support beyond Node.js/TypeScript and Go is planned but not yet available.
