Cool conversation @WeAreDevs on the main stage with @anuraggoel and leaders from sentry, blackbox ai, and cognition: Running AI written software in production
If you're at @WeAreDevs in San Jose today, stop by the Render booth for cool swag and cooler conversations with our DX team about hosting your AI and agent workloads.
Research agents split complex questions into multiple subtasks. But what happens when a branch fails?
Our latest open-source template uses @p0 's Search and Extract to research topics in parallel, fanning out subtasks on Render Workflows to provide isolation and retries.
The agent synthesizes successful results into a cited report.

Agent workloads are unpredictable by definition. Is the next request 3 tasks or 400?
Provisioning compute assumes you know the answer.
Our answer is Application-Defined Compute. Render CEO @anuraggoel explains it tomorrow at @WeAreDevs. 11 AM, Stage 1.
Find us at booth #734 after.
Introducing Build Reuse: Build once and reuse across multiple Render services and environments.

Introducing Photon + @render's new template: your own Codex agent, right in iMessage.
Photon connects the messages. @OpenAI Codex handles the work. Render keeps it running.
Demo 👇
At PR.ide, Blue demoed a RAG agent on Render that fact-checks its own answers, powered by Render Workflows. One task failed mid-demo. It retried automatically while every other task kept running like nothing happened.
That's the point: retries and fan-out, handled for you.

Your agent isn't failing because it can't reason. It's failing because it has too many tools and no clarity on which to use.
Arcade’s River Stevens and @render on why tool selection is a retrieval problem, plus a live demo of Arcade as a Claude plugin: https://t.co/z7FfKCD34c
Give your agents a hammer, not a hardware store 🔨
River Stevens from @TryArcade spoke at PR.ide about why agents struggle with too many tools. Tool selection is a retrieval problem, not a reasoning one. Job-oriented tools and dynamic selection mean fewer tokens and higher recall.

Origin is now a supported Git provider on Render.
Build in @cursor_ai, save to Origin, and run your full stack on Render.
Cursor workspace admins, connect Origin to Render and get started today: https://t.co/3n7YEMkIUg
A GitHub token works for the demo. It breaks with multiple users.
Our PR summarizer template uses @scalekitinc for per-user auth. Each user connects their own GitHub, scoped per session.

OpenAI uses Render to ship apps like gpt-oss playground and ChatKit Studio, supporting hundreds of thousands of concurrent users.
Recently, they used Render Workflows + Codex to launch a guide generation agent on the @OpenAIDevs site.
