Multi-agent orchestration framework for autonomous AI collaboration. Use when building teams of specialized agents working together on complex tasks, when you need role-based agent collaboration with memory, or for production workflows requiring sequential/hierarchical execution. Built without LangChain dependencies for lean, fast execution.

Build teams of autonomous AI agents that collaborate to solve complex tasks.
Use CrewAI when:
Key features:
Use alternatives instead:
Tasks execute in order, each agent completing their task before the next:
Auto-creates a manager agent that delegates and coordinates:
For complex workflows with conditional logic, use Flows:
See Flows Guide for complete documentation.
Memory types: Short-term (ChromaDB), Long-term (SQLite), Entity (ChromaDB)
