DevRel @ Render

[Shifra Williams @shifra_dev]

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!

[Anurag Goel @anuraggoel]

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.

@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: https://t.co/W2uX5teLnr

[Anurag Goel @anuraggoel]

Render hosts apps, agents, and now, conferences!

Our first dev conference is on June 18 in SF.

Speakers from @OpenAI , @stripe , @every & more.

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.

Build resilient voice research agents with @AssemblyAI, @mastra, and @render Workflows.

Here's how easy it is to build durable task pipelines:

We're hosting PR.ide, a celebration of LGBTQ+ builders shipping in production 🌈

Join us for demos plus food, drinks, and real technical conversations on June 30th in SF.

All are welcome. Come as you are, stay for the builds.

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.

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: https://t.co/YD3yqgNBwg

Full walkthrough from @ojusave and @itsclelia 👇

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

Shipping an MCP server without auth is like leaving your front door open and hoping for the best.

AWS isn't poorly designed.

It's just not made for you. It was built for infrastructure engineers, while most of us are product builders.

Different users, different mental models. We've been conflating them for decades.

[Rafay @minrelu]

Shout out to @render @FastCron. This has been functioning for like years without any issues at all.

Thanks for the kind words @MihovDarin 🙌

Appreciate you and I'm so glad @render has been a seamless experience

[Darin Mihov @MihovDarin]

Great experience moving my personal project to @render

First found out about it from @shifra_dev demoing at PyAI London.

Recommend if you’re looking for a seamless solution that manages your deployments for you and your agents can understand.

[Shifra Williams @shifra_dev]

So excited to see this come to fruition! Can't wait to see what @OpenAI developers in the @OpenAICodexCli community ship on @render

[Render @render]

Codex writes your code → Codex ships it on Render.

We built a Codex plugin with @OpenAI that lets you deploy, debug, and monitor your entire stack on Render, without leaving your flow.

Just type /render

[Anurag Goel @anuraggoel]

Our @golang load balancer at @render handles more than 150 billion HTTP requests a month across millions of services.

The number of times we've wanted to rewrite it in Rust: zero.

Go is the most underrated language in infrastructure. "Boring" is the ultimate feature.

@render Docker images whale-come!
