Vercel's batteries-included TypeScript framework for LLM-powered apps. Streaming primitives, structured outputs, tool calling, and React hooks for chat UIs — works with every major provider out of the box.

Capabilities 4

What it actually does — grouped by capability family.

  • Agent framework (primary capability)
  • Tool / function calling (primary capability)
  • Multi-model access (secondary capability)
  • Embeddings (secondary capability)

Pros & cons

  • React hooks (useChat) for chat UIs
  • Generative UI / structured outputs
  • Free and open source
  • First-class Next.js integration
  • TypeScript/JS ecosystem only
  • Lighter on agent orchestration

    LangChain

    LangChain

    The default open-source framework for composing LLM apps.

    Python + TypeScript framework for chaining prompts, tools, retrievers, and memory into LLM applications. Ubiquitous in the ecosystem; pairs with LangGraph for agent orchestration and LangSmith for tracing.

    LlamaIndex

    LlamaIndex

    The data framework for LLM apps — RAG, agents, and document workflows.

    An open-source framework (Python + TypeScript) for connecting LLMs to your data — ingestion, indexing, retrieval, and agentic document workflows. Pairs with the managed LlamaCloud (LlamaParse) for production parsing and extraction. The most-used RAG framework after LangChain.

    Mastra

    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.

    Pydantic AI

    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.
