I built a tiny HTTP message queue because I didn't want to set up Redis for every side project

Wait 5 sec.

Whenever I build a small application that needs background jobs or communication between services, I find myself setting up infrastructure that feels like overkill. So I built queuejet.dev It's a simple hosted message queue: POST to push a message. GET to read a message. No SDK, no broker installation. Works with any language that supports HTTP. Free tier with 30,000 messages/month. I'm also exploring AI agent handoffs as a use case — one agent can push a task, and another can pick it up. It's an early-stage project, and I'd love some honest feedback. A few questions: Would you use something this simple instead of Redis or SQS for small projects? What would prevent you from trusting a hosted message queue? Is the pricing and free tier attractive enough? I'm the developer behind this project. https://queuejet.dev   submitted by   /u/Great_Distance8748 [link]   [comments]
