## Choose when

### Choose agentset if…

- agentset is primarily TypeScript; vault-ai is JavaScript.
- Pricing: Free to use as it is open-source..
- Requirements: Primarily developed in TypeScript.; Best used with an understanding of Retrieval-Augmented Generation and AI agent functionalities..
- Tags unique to agentset: agentic-rag, ai-agents, embeddings, memory-management.
- Also covers AI Agents.
- - Use AgentSet when you require deep integration with multiple file types including over 22 supported formats.

### Choose vault-ai if…

- vault-ai is primarily JavaScript; agentset is TypeScript.
- Tags unique to vault-ai: ai, artificial-intelligence, chatgpt, generative.
- Also covers Vector Databases.
- When you need a custom knowledge base that can be queried using a generative AI model, such as extending ChatGPT with historical context from uploaded documents in formats like PDFs or txt.

## When NOT to use agentset

- - Avoid selecting AgentSet if your application does not benefit from or necessitate support for a wide array of file types, as its complexity might overwhelm simpler use-cases.
- - If seamless integration with third-party citation services is more preferred, another tool might be better suited since AgentSet focuses on built-in citation capabilities.

## When NOT to use vault-ai

- When your requirements do not include uploading custom content for the AI to learn from, as vault-ai focuses on integrating a knowledge base with ChatGPT.
- If you prefer using other vector search databases such as Qdrant instead of Pinecone, as vault-ai is specifically designed around Pinecone.
