LangGraph

Open-source agent orchestration framework from LangChain.

By LangChain, Inc. · Founded 2024 · San Francisco, CA · private

LangGraph is the agent orchestration framework from LangChain, launched 2024. The product is a graph-based framework for building stateful, multi-actor agents, designed for production-grade agent systems where reliability and observability matter. Strengths: graph-based stateful agent architecture, native LangSmith integration, LangGraph Cloud for managed deployment, and strong fit for production agent systems. Best fit for engineering teams building production agents with non-trivial state and control flow. Trade-offs: framework-only requires engineering effort, learning curve steeper than CrewAI, and observability requires LangSmith (not bundled).

Best for

Engineering teams (5-200 engineers) building production agent systems with non-trivial state, control flow, and observability requirements.

Worst for

Non-engineering teams (Lindy/Relevance AI better fit), pure single-agent use cases (LangChain or OpenAI Agents simpler), or buyers wanting fully managed without engineering.
