How we compare
Every comparison follows the same structure: what each framework does well, a side-by-side table on key dimensions, and honest guidance on when to choose each option. We name specific technical differences rather than making broad claims.
Comparison dimensions
| Dimension | What we compare |
|---|---|
| Language and runtime | Elixir/BEAM vs Python/TypeScript |
| Agent model | How agents are defined and managed |
| Tool calling | How agents interact with external systems |
| Multi-agent coordination | How agents communicate and coordinate |
| Failure handling | What happens when things crash |
| Observability | Built-in monitoring and debugging |
| LLM provider support | Which models and providers work |
