LangGraph is LangChain's framework for building stateful, multi-actor AI agent applications as controllable graphs. It models workflows as nodes and edges, enabling cycles, branching, and human-in-the-loop patterns that simple chains cannot express. Features built-in persistence for conversation memory, streaming support, and fault tolerance. Provides fine-grained control over execution flow while supporting single-agent and multi-agent architectures with shared or independent state.
Python framework for orchestrating autonomous AI agents that collaborate to accomplish complex tasks. Define agents with specific roles, goals, and backstories, then organize them into crews with sequential or parallel task execution. Supports tool usage (web search, file I/O, API calls), memory, delegation between agents, and human-in-the-loop input. Works with OpenAI, Anthropic, local models, and more. 25K+ GitHub stars. Leading multi-agent framework alongside LangGraph and AutoGen.
Fast, lightweight Python framework for building multi-modal AI agents, formerly known as Phidata. Includes built-in memory, knowledge bases, tools, and reasoning capabilities with 40K+ GitHub stars. Designed for developers who want to build production-ready agents quickly with minimal boilerplate, supporting structured outputs and multi-agent coordination out of the box.
