## Decision facts: AutoGPT

- **Adopt for:** AutoGPT is a Python-based tool for creating accessible autonomous AI agents that can leverage various LLM APIs including OpenAI's GPT and Anthropic's Claude.

## Choose when

### Choose FEDOT if…

- License: FEDOT is BSD-3-Clause, AutoGPT is Other.
- Tags unique to FEDOT: automl, evolutionary-algorithms, genetic-programming, machine-learning.
- Also covers Data & Retrieval, Computer Vision.

### Choose AutoGPT if…

- License: AutoGPT is Other, FEDOT is BSD-3-Clause.
- Tags unique to AutoGPT: agents, llm, ai, artificial-intelligence.
- Also covers AI Agents.
- When you need to rapidly prototype or deploy an autonomous agent using existing language models without deep AI expertise.

## When NOT to use FEDOT

- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
- Data & Retrieval: Skip a heavy ingestion framework when your corpus is small and static; a script plus the embedding API is enough.

## When NOT to use AutoGPT

- Avoid if you require absolute control over the underlying AI infrastructure and APIs used by your autonomous agents, as AutoGPT imposes its own framework.
- If your project demands proprietary or specialized models that aren't supported by AutoGPT's API ecosystem (e.g., custom TensorFlow or PyTorch models), consider other tools.
