Trusted by companies shaping the future of agents

Controllable cognitive architecture for any task

LangGraph's flexible framework supports diverse control flows – single agent, multi-agent, hierarchical, sequential – and robustly handles realistic, complex scenarios.

Ensure reliability with easy-to-add moderation and quality loops that prevent agents from veering off course.

Use LangGraph Platform to templatize your cognitive architecture so that tools, prompts, and models are easily configurable with LangGraph Platform Assistants.

Designed for human-agent collaboration

With built-in statefulness, LangGraph agents seamlessly collaborate with humans by writing drafts for review and awaiting approval before acting. Easily inspect the agent’s actions and "time-travel" to roll back and take a different action to correct course.

How does LangGraph help?

Guide, moderate, and control your agent with human-in-the-loop.

Prevent agents from veering off course with easy-to-add moderation and quality controls. Add human-in-the-loop checks to steer and approve agent actions.

Learn how to add human-in-the-loop

Build expressive, customizable agent workflows.

LangGraph’s low-level primitives provide the flexibility needed to create fully customizable agents. Design diverse control flows — single, multi-agent, hierarchical — all using one framework.

Deploy agents at scale, monitor carefully, iterate boldly

Design agent-driven user experiences with LangGraph Platform's APIs. Quickly deploy and scale your application with infrastructure built for agents. Choose from multiple deployment options.

Fault-tolerant scalability

Handle large workloads gracefully with horizontally-scaling servers, task queues, and built-in persistence. Enhance resilience with intelligent caching and automated retries.

Dynamic APIs for designing agent experience

Craft personalized user experiences with APIs featuring long-term memory to recall information across conversation sessions. Track, update, and rewind your app's state for easy human steering and interaction. Kick off long-running background jobs for research-style or multi-step work.

Integrated developer experience

Simplify prototyping, debugging, and sharing of agents in our visual LangGraph Studio. Deploy your application with 1-click deploy with our SaaS offering or within your own VPC. Then, monitor app performance with LangSmith.

Developers trust LangGraph to build reliable agents.

LangGraph helps teams of all sizes, across all industries, build reliable agents ready for production.

“LangChain is streets ahead with what they've put forward with LangGraph. LangGraph sets the foundation for how we can build and scale AI workloads — from conversational agents, complex task automation, to custom LLM-backed experiences that 'just work'. The next chapter in building complex production-ready features with LLMs is agentic, and with LangGraph and LangSmith, LangChain delivers an out-of-the-box solution to iterate quickly, debug immediately, and scale effortlessly.”

“LangGraph has been instrumental for our AI development. Its robust framework for building stateful, multi-actor applications with LLMs has transformed how we evaluate and optimize the performance of our AI guest-facing solutions. LangGraph enables granular control over the agent's thought process, which has empowered us to make data-driven and deliberate decisions to meet the diverse needs of our guests.”

Andres Torres
Sr. Solutions Architect

“It's easy to build the prototype of a coding agent, but deceptively hard to improve its reliability. Replit wants to give a coding agent to millions of users — reliability is our top priority, and will remain so for a long time. LangGraph is giving us the control and ergonomics we need to build and ship powerful coding agents.”

LangGraph FAQs

How is LangGraph different from other agent frameworks?

Other agentic frameworks can work for simple, generic tasks but fall short for complex tasks bespoke to a company’s needs. LangGraph provides a more expressive framework to handle companies’ unique tasks without restricting users to a single black-box cognitive architecture.

Does LangGraph impact the performance of my app?

LangGraph will not add any overhead to your code and is specifically designed with streaming workflows in mind.

Is LangGraph open source? Is it free?

Yes. LangGraph is an MIT-licensed open-source library and is free to use.

How are LangGraph and LangGraph Platform different?

LangGraph is a stateful, orchestration framework that brings added control to agent workflows. LangGraph Platform is a service for deploying and scaling LangGraph applications, with an opinionated API for building agent UXs, plus an integrated developer studio.

What are my deployment options for LangGraph Platform?

We currently have the following deployment options for LangGraph applications:

Self-Hosted Lite: A free (up to 1M nodes executed), limited version of LangGraph Platform that you can run locally or in a self-hosted manner. This version requires a LangSmith API key and logs all usage to LangSmith. Fewer features are available than in paid plans.

Hybrid (SaaS control plane, self-hosted data plane). No data leaves your VPC. Provisioning and scaling is managed as a service.

Self-Hosted Enterprise: Deploy LangGraph entirely on your own infrastructure.

Is LangGraph Platform open source?

No. LangGraph Platform is proprietary software.

There is a free, self-hosted version of LangGraph Platform with access to basic features. The Cloud SaaS deployment option is free while in beta, but will eventually be a paid service. We will always give ample notice before charging for a service and reward our early adopters with preferential pricing. The Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) and Self-Hosted Enterprise options are also paid services. Contact our sales team to learn more.
