Hey HN,

I just launched Dispatched.dev ahead of schedule! It’s a tool to simplify background jobs for serverless apps—no more managing queues or workers. Just send simple HTTP requests, and we handle the rest.

As a launch special, I’m offering 30% off for a limited time. Would love to hear your feedback or answer any questions!

I might be stupid but I've been looking all over your docs and still can't figure out how to setup the Job itself or what are the specs for the running job (cpu, memory, etc...)

Looks like you run the job, the service hits your webhook when the queue is up.

This is great, I've been looking for a service that does exactly this for a while now. Any thoughts on a hobbyist plan between free and indie? The jump from 100 to 500k feels like a lot.

Looks interesting. What is the feature difference between this and Inngest?
