Huge day for us at @render! We just announced a $100M raise at a $1.5B valuation. As a DevRel, it's inspiring to see the investment we're already putting into our developers. And we're just getting started. Check out the announcement below!
We’ve raised $100M at a $1.5B valuation. We built Render to give developers an intuitive path to reliable and scalable cloud infrastructure. Now, we are bringing that same philosophy to long-running, stateful infrastructure for AI apps & agents. 🧵

We've reduced the median build time for Node.js services by ~10 seconds (25%). Coincidentally, that's about how long it takes to get your ticket to Render localhost... June 18, San Francisco → luma.com/localhost-2026-sf

Loved hanging out with Marc and Benjie on @readkubelist. We also gave out a special coupon for localhost on June 18!
On episode 53 of The Kubelist Podcast, Marc Campbell and Benjie De Groot sit down with Anurag Goel (@anuraggoel). Anurag shares his journey from early employee at Stripe to founder and CEO of @render, one of the fastest-growing application platforms in cloud infrastructure. Tune in! @readkubelist @replicatedhq @shipyardbuild hubs.ly/Q04kCXzD0

LaunchPad Lab is now an official @render partner. 🚀 After 12 years of building digital products, we know infrastructure decisions quietly make or break a project. Render keeps it out of the way so budgets go toward features, not keeping the lights on.👇 render.com/blog/launchpad-la…

Replying to @dkundel
@dkundel from @OpenAI is joining us at Render localhost, June 18 in SF. His take: writing code stopped being the bottleneck. The real work is giving agents the context, validation, and verification to ship. Seats are limited. Save your spot: localhost.render.com/

CPU and RAM prices are rising, and lead times for hardware purchases are longer, but for most businesses, the challenge isn't running out of CPU or RAM capacity in the cloud. It's managing agentic compute, which is ephemeral AND long-running AND stateful, and looks very different from anything we've seen before. This is the future of compute primitives that cloud providers need to contemplate.

Deploy headless Flue agents on Render in one click. Template ships with two example agents to get you started. To add a new one, drop a .ts file in .flue/agents/ and push. render.com/templates/flue
Introducing Flue — The First Agent Harness Framework Flue is a TypeScript framework for building the next generation of agents, designed around a built-in agent harness. Flue is like Claude Code, but 100% headless and programmable. There's no baked in assumption like requiring a human operator to function. No TUI. No GUI. Just TypeScript. But using Flue feels like using Claude Code. The agents you build act autonomously to solve problems and complete tasks. They require very little code to run. Most of the "logic" lives in Markdown: skills and context and AGENTS.md. Flue is like Astro or Next.js for agents (not surprising, given my background 🙃). It's not another AI SDK. It's a proper runtime-agnostic framework. Write once, build, and deploy your agents anywhere (Node.js, Cloudflare, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, etc). We originally built Flue to power AI workflows inside of the Astro GitHub repo. But then @_bgiori got his hands on it, and we realized that every agent needs a framework like Flue, not just us. Check it out! It's early, but I'm curious to hear what people think. Are agents ready for their library -> framework moment?

Document processing pipelines are a pain to scale. Here's how to build one with @llama_index and Render Workflows. LlamaParse handles parsing, classification, extraction, and retrieval. Workflows distributes the background work. Try it: render-workflows-llamaindex.… Full walkthrough from @ojusave and @itsclelia 👇

Building scalable, distributed document processing pipelines isn’t easy. That’s why we teamed up with @render to build a system that: 📝 Leverages the LlamaParse platform to parse, classify, extract, and retrieve information from documents ⚙️ Uses Render Workflows to distribute tasks across nodes and accelerate background processing ⚡ Deploys a lightweight server and database on Render, giving you an instant interface to interact with your pipeline 👩‍💻 Explore the repo to see it in action: github.com/render-examples/r… 📚 And check out the step-by-step breakdown by @ojusave and @itsclelia: render.com/blog/building-doc…

You and your agents can now deploy @render static sites, web services, and Postgres databases directly from the @stripe Projects CLI. Run `stripe projects add render` to get started
