CrewAI
Enterprise platform for building and running multi-agent workflows

About CrewAI
CrewAI is a build and runtime platform for creating operational agents that automate long-horizon business work. It is designed for business teams, engineers, and platform teams that need centralized governance.
The platform includes a no-code visual editor, a code-first API, role-based agents, and deterministic workflow capabilities. Its Control Plane provides tracing, cost accounting, RBAC, audit trails, human approval gates, PII redaction, and policy checks.
CrewAI also supports automated and human-guided training, runtime multi-LLM testing, and evaluation integrations with Arize, Galileo, DataDog, and Patronus. The site offers sign-up and trial access, as well as demo bookings; pricing is not stated.
Highlights
- Multi-agent builder with visual and code-first workflows
- Discovery tools for ranking automation opportunities
- Real-time tracing for LLM calls, tool calls, and memory reads
- RBAC, audit trails, approval gates, and runtime policy controls
- Training, model testing, and evaluation features
Fun to compose. Debugging multi-agent traces still painful.
Good for demos, a bit opinionated for production.
