## Overview
|
|
|
|
Build AI media generation pipelines that handle unpredictable API latencies and long-running operations. Generate images, videos, audio, and multi-modal content with automatic retries, progress tracking, and no timeout limits.

## Benefits of using Trigger.dev for AI media generation workflows
|
|
|
|
**Pay only for active compute, not AI inference time:** Checkpoint-resume pauses during AI API calls. Generate content that takes minutes or hours without paying for idle inference time.
|
|
|
|
**No timeout limits for long generations:** Handle generations that take minutes or hours without execution limits. Perfect for high-quality video synthesis and complex multi-modal workflows.
|
|
|
|
**Human approval gates for brand safety:** Add review steps before publishing AI-generated content. Pause workflows for human approval using waitpoint tokens.
|
|
|
|

## Example workflow patterns
|
|
|
|
<Tabs>
|
|
<Tab title="AI content with approval">
|
|
**Supervisor pattern with approval gate**. Generates AI content, pauses execution with wait.forToken to allow human review, applies feedback if needed, publishes approved content.
|
|
|
|
<div align="center">
|
|
|
|
```mermaid
|

|
|
A[generateContent] --> B[createWithAI]
|
|
B --> C[wait.forToken approval]
|
|
C --> D{Approved?}
|

|

F --> B
|

```
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
</Tab>
|
|
<Tab title="AI image generation">
|
|
Simple AI image generation. Receives prompt and parameters, calls OpenAI DALL·E 3, post-processes result, uploads to storage.
|
|
|
|
<div align="center">
|
|
|
|
```mermaid

A[generateImage] --> B[optimizeImage]

B --> C[uploadToStorage]

C --> D[updateDatabase]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
</Tab>
|
|
|
|
<Tab title="Batch image generation">
|
|
**Coordinator pattern with rate limiting**. Receives batch of generation requests, coordinates parallel processing with configurable concurrency to respect API rate limits, validates outputs, stores results.
|
|
|
|
<div align="center">
|
|
|
|
```mermaid

</div>
|
|
</Tab>
|
|
|
|
<Tab title="Multi-step image enhancement">
|
|
**Coordinator pattern with sequential processing**. Generates initial content with AI, applies style transfer or enhancement, upscales resolution, optimizes and compresses for delivery.
