"The Swiss Army Knife of Agent Frameworks"

✨ Key Strengths

  • Massive ecosystem
  • Extensive tool library
  • Great documentation
  • Multi-language support

🎯 Best For

Production apps needing proven patterns

� Difficulty

Moderate

🧭 How to Choose

Choose LangChain if...

You need battle-tested patterns, extensive tool integrations, or want the largest community for troubleshooting

Choose AutoGen if...

You're building multi-agent systems where agents need to converse, debate, or collaborate on complex tasks

Choose CrewAI if...

You want simplicity with clear role-based workflows—great for business process automation

Choose Semantic Kernel if...

You're in a Microsoft/Azure ecosystem or building enterprise .NET applications

💡 The Reality

You can't go wrong with any of these. Most production agent systems use a combination:

  • LangChain for tool calling and RAG, AutoGen for multi-agent coordination
  • CrewAI wraps LangChain with a simpler API for specific workflows
  • Start with one, switch if needed—patterns transfer across frameworks
