Agno is an open-source Python framework for building multi-agent systems with memory, knowledge, tools, and reasoning. Agents are fast to instantiate and can be composed into teams, and the companion AgentOS runtime serves them in production as a FastAPI app with a control plane.

Capabilities 6

What it actually does — grouped by capability family.

  • Multi-agent orchestration (primary capability)
  • Agent framework (secondary capability)
  • Tool / function calling (secondary capability)
  • Agent memory (secondary capability)
  • RAG pipeline (secondary capability)
  • App / agent deployment (primary capability)

Pros & cons

  • Fast agent instantiation, low memory use
  • Multi-modal agents and agent teams
  • Bundled AgentOS production runtime
  • Model- and provider-agnostic
  • Younger than LangChain and LlamaIndex
  • Rapid changes since the Phidata rename
  • Smaller community and ecosystem

    CrewAI

    crewAIInc

    Multi-agent framework with explicit roles and tasks.

    Python framework for orchestrating crews of specialised agents — researcher, writer, reviewer — coordinated through shared context. Opinionated about roles, sequencing, and delegation; good fit for content-and-research pipelines.

    LangGraph

    LangChain

    Graph-based agent orchestration. Stateful loops with checkpoints.

    LangChain's agent layer. Model agents as nodes in a state graph with persistent checkpoints, human-in-the-loop steps, and durable execution. Strong when you need a long-running, debuggable agent rather than a one-shot chain.

    Pydantic

    Type-safe Python agent framework, the Pydantic way.

    An open-source Python framework for building production-grade agents with validated, structured outputs instead of raw-string parsing. Model-agnostic across OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini and many more, with composable tools, durable execution, MCP support, and built-in observability via Pydantic Logfire. MIT-licensed from the team behind Pydantic.

    Mastra

    TypeScript framework for building AI agents and workflows.

    An open-source TypeScript stack for AI applications: agents, a graph-based workflow engine (.then/.branch/.parallel), memory, tools, and built-in observability behind one API. Run it self-hosted under Apache 2.0, or deploy to Mastra Cloud with a free Starter tier and paid Teams/Enterprise plans.
