// how it works

How it works

  1. Define the job

    Research, coding, browsing, or ops — agents work best with a clear goal.

  2. Pick a framework

    From no-code builders to code-first SDKs, match complexity to the task.

  3. Give it tools

    Web search, code execution, and APIs are what make agents useful.

  4. Run and supervise

    Watch the trace, approve consequential actions, iterate.

// features

Why people love it

Multi-agent teams

Specialized agents collaborate on bigger jobs.

Tool use

Agents call real tools: browsers, terminals, APIs.

Evaluations

Benchmarks keep agent quality measurable.

Self-hosted

Run agents on your infra with your keys.

Model agnostic

Swap frontier models as better ones appear.

Observability

Traces show exactly what the agent did and why.
