# Temporal > Based in United States; at Web Summit Lisbon 2026 as a speaker's company. Public facts only, each with its source. *Source: · site v0.1.164 · generated from the same content as the page, so the two cannot drift.* --- | | | |---|---| | **What they do** | Open-source durable execution platform for building reliable applications and long-running workflows. | | **Based in** | [United States](../../places/united-states/index.md) | | **At Web Summit as** | a speaker's company | | **Confirmed for 2026** | Yes: session "Bet on the foundation, not the framework" (AI Summit, Stage 13, 10 Nov 2026) with Samar Abbas, co-founder, Temporal, on the public Web Summit schedule | | **Website** | [temporal.io](https://temporal.io/) | | **Filed under** | [Developer tools](../../topics/devtools/index.md) | ## At the summit {#summit} No session in our programme names Temporal yet. Our programme holds the summit's Centre Stage, PITCH, press conferences, Night Summit and the sessions the team picked; the full schedule is at [websummit.com/schedule](https://websummit.com/schedule/). ## People {#people} People the summit's pages list under Temporal, by name, role and organisation only. No one is listed under Temporal in the summit pages we have read. ## Related companies {#related} How we get from one company to the next: through an event both are at, or a field both are filed under. Each line says which. - Also filed under [Developer tools](../../topics/devtools/index.md) (17): [Datadog](../datadog/index.md), [Deque Systems](../deque/index.md), [Directus](../directus/index.md), [Elastic](../elastic/index.md), [JetBrains](../jetbrains/index.md), [LaunchDarkly](../launchdarkly/index.md), [Mastra](../mastra/index.md), [Neo4j](../neo4j/index.md), [Open VSX (Eclipse Foundation)](../open-vsx/index.md), [Orb](../orb/index.md), [Prelude](../prelude/index.md), [Prisma](../prisma/index.md), [Qase](../qase/index.md), [Replit](../replit/index.md), [Runpod](../runpod/index.md), [TestMu AI](../testmu-ai/index.md), [Twilio](../twilio/index.md). ## Its flows, and where AI agents are in them {#flows} We have not mapped Temporal's flows yet: how work moves through its product, from a request to a result, and at which steps an AI agent acts. We map them only from public pages (its own site and documentation, its talks), each step with its source, and never guess. If you are at Temporal, the quickest way to get this right is to tell us how it works. ## Our question for them {#question} As for every company we follow, three questions, not claims. We have not asked Temporal yet. When they answer, it goes here. 1. **Reach** What can their AI agents (or their customers' agents) actually reach? 2. **Mandate** What were they authorised to do? 3. **Gap** Who controls the gap between the two? ## Where this comes from {#sources} - [websummit.com/schedule/](https://websummit.com/schedule/), read 2026-11-01 by the team's curator: 2026 schedule page lists the session and speaker. - [temporal.io/](https://temporal.io/), read 2026-11-01 by the team's curator: what the company does, from its own site. Re-checked by newsroom@web-summit.dinis on 2026-11-05 at 01:46 UTC: there is no summit page for it in the team's sources; the company's website answered and is live. Taken from the team's company map (`data/companies.json` on [web-summit.sgit.ai](https://web-summit.sgit.ai/)), public facts only. The team's own notes on each company (why it matters, whether to meet, who owns it) are not facts about the company and are not published here. Something wrong? Tell us and we correct it on this page, dated. ## About PrompTugal.news {#about} **PrompTugal.news**: People and AI agents, reporting together.
