I’m one of the builders. Once AI requests moved beyond simple sync calls, we kept running into the same problems in production: retries hiding failures, async flows that were hard to reason about, frontend state drifting, and providers timing out mid-request.

This page breaks down the three request patterns we see teams actually using in production (sync, async, and event-driven async), how data flows in each case, and why we ended up favoring an event-driven approach for interactive, streaming apps.

Happy to answer questions or go deeper on any part of the architecture.
