LiveKit Agents

Name: LiveKit Agents
Author: LiveKit

Open-source framework for realtime voice and video agents on WebRTC transport.

+ WebRTC underneath means in-app and in-browser voice, not only phone calls.
− You run the media plane or pay for theirs - the framework alone is not a product.

Dify Open source

Open-source LLMOps platform with a visual builder for agents, RAG pipelines, and workflows.

Langflow Open source

Visual low-code builder for RAG and multi-agent flows, acquired by DataStax and now part of IBM.

LangChain Open source

Framework of composable building blocks for LLM apps, with integrations for every model and vector store.

+ Largest integration catalogue of any framework, so almost any provider is one import away.
− Frequent breaking API changes and heavy abstractions make simple things feel over-engineered.

Goose Open source

Open-source, extensible local AI agent that automates engineering tasks via MCP extensions.

+ MCP-first design means any MCP server becomes a Goose capability with no glue code.
− Less tuned for coding than Claude Code, so results vary widely by model.

CrewAI Open source

Python framework for orchestrating role-based multi-agent crews and flows.

+ Role, goal, and task abstractions make multi-agent setups readable in a few lines.
