# Prefect

A workflow orchestration platform that lets data and ML teams build, run, and monitor pipelines with automatic retries and managed execution.

**Route:** surfaced by the financial data and reporting lane's de-branded queries → substitute to stripe.com.

**Why it's on the map:** A buyer building payment or financial data pipelines could use Prefect instead of Stripe's own workflow infrastructure (e.g., Stripe Workflow or webhook-based orchestration) to manage data movement between Stripe and internal systems.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> Durable orchestration for data, ML, and agents.

> Replace brittle cron jobs with pipelines that heal themselves, so your data always arrives on time.

> Prefect executes your flows on your infrastructure, retries failures, scales out, and tracks every task, so runs recover on their own.

**Edges:**
