Prototype multi-agent AI systems without writing orchestration code: AutoGen Studio is Microsoft's low-code interface over the AutoGen AgentChat framework. You compose teams of LLM-powered agents in a visual Team Builder, either by drag-and-drop from a component library or by editing the declarative JSON specification directly. Each agent gets a model, a prompt, tools (Python functions), and the team gets termination conditions and an orchestration pattern, sequential or LLM-driven. The Playground runs teams interactively with live message streaming between agents, a visual control-transition graph, tool-call and code-execution tracking, and pause/stop controls, which makes it a practical debugger for agent behavior. Finished teams export as JSON for use in any Python application via the TeamManager class, or serve as an API endpoint. Any OpenAI-compatible model endpoint works, including local servers like Ollama or vLLM. Microsoft labels it a research prototype: use it for prototyping and evaluation, and build production systems on the underlying AutoGen framework.

Drag nodes onto a canvas and ship an LLM app: Flowise is an open-source visual builder for AI agents and LLM applications, written in Node.js on LangChain.js and licensed Apache-2.0. You assemble flows by dragging nodes onto a canvas: models, prompts, memory, vector stores, retrievers, and tools, then wire them together and test in the built-in chat panel. Three builder types cover increasing complexity: Assistant for simple RAG chat over uploaded files, Chatflow for single-agent systems with techniques like rerankers and Graph RAG, and Agentflow for multi-agent orchestration with branching, looping, shared flow state, and human-in-the-loop checkpoints. Over 100 integrations connect data sources, vector databases, and both proprietary and open-source models, plus MCP client and server nodes for standard tool interop. Finished flows are exposed as REST APIs, embedded chat widgets, or via JS and Python SDKs - each flow gets an endpoint the moment it is saved, removing the deployment gap between a working prototype and something your application can call. Execution logs, visual step debugging, and external log streaming trace behavior, while input moderation and rate limiting act as guardrails; RBAC, SSO, and workspaces cover team deployments. Self-hosting keeps prompts, encrypted credentials, and conversation data on your own instance, which matters when flows handle internal documents or customer data - and wiring a model, prompt, memory, and vector store on the canvas replaces the boilerplate a hand-coded LangChain project would need.
