4.2 / 5.0

Superagent is an open-source platform for building, deploying, and managing AI agents with memory, tools, and document knowledge. It provides a simple API for creating agents that can search the web, query databases, execute code, and remember past interactions. Superagent is designed to be the infrastructure layer for agent-powered products, allowing developers to focus on agent behaviour rather than infrastructure.

Best for: Developers building AI agent-powered products who want an open-source infrastructure layer handling memory, tools, and deployment
