AutoGPT
Platform for autonomous agents
AutoGPT was one of the first well-known projects for autonomous GPT agents in 2023. Today it is a platform where you create, schedule and monitor agents via chat or a visual builder, plus a marketplace for ready-made agents. The platform is available hosted or self-hosted; the platform code is under the Polyform Shield License, while the original agent in the classic folder is MIT licensed.

- DeveloperCrewAICrewAI is a Python framework for teams of agents with defined roles, goals and tasks. Crews work through tasks sequentially or hierarchically, while Flows control event-driven, stateful processes. The framework is MIT licensed; for deployment, monitoring and management CrewAI offers the commercial platform CrewAI AMP.View profile
- DeveloperInngest AIInngest is an event-driven durable execution platform: functions consist of steps that are retried automatically on failure and resumed after interruptions. For AI applications Inngest offers AgentKit and steps for LLM calls, so multi-step agents run reliably without operating your own queues. The server and CLI are licensed under the SSPL with delayed publication under Apache 2.0, the SDKs under Apache 2.0.View profile
- DeveloperClaude Agent SDKThe Claude Agent SDK exposes the agent loop, tools and context management of Claude Code as a library for Python and TypeScript. Agents can read and edit files, run commands, search the web and spawn subagents for subtasks; hooks, permissions, sessions and MCP servers are built in. It was formerly called the Claude Code SDK. Use is governed by Anthropic's Commercial Terms, while the Python package itself is MIT licensed.View profile
- DeveloperGoogle Agent Development Kit (ADK)The Agent Development Kit (ADK) is an open-source framework from Google for building, evaluating and deploying agents in code. It is available for Python, TypeScript, Go, Java and Kotlin and offers workflow agents for sequential, parallel and loop flows, plus graph-based workflows since version 2.0. ADK is optimized for Gemini but also works with Claude, OpenAI models and local models; deployment targets include Agent Runtime, Cloud Run and GKE.View profile
