## Choose when

### Choose hyv if…

- License: hyv is AGPL-3.0, AgentGPT is GPL-3.0.
- Tags unique to hyv: agents, ai, alpaca, artificial-intelligence.
- - When working in TypeScript projects that require the chaining and collaboration of various AI agents and APIs.

### Choose AgentGPT if…

- License: AgentGPT is GPL-3.0, hyv is AGPL-3.0.
- Tags unique to AgentGPT: agent, autonomous, backend-development, cli-setup.
- Also covers Developer Tools.
- AgentGPT ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
- When you want to leverage pre-configured setups for database integration (specifically MySQL) handled by AgentGPT's CLI

## When NOT to use hyv

- - If your project is primarily using languages other than TypeScript, Hyv's benefits may not fully apply due to its TypeScript framework focus.
- - When the integration of proprietary or highly customized AI models not aligned with open-source LLMs like GPT-4 is required.

## When NOT to use AgentGPT

- Avoid using if your project requires a NoSQL database solution, given that AgentGPT is configured specifically with MySQL out-of-the-box
- Consider alternatives if your stack does not include FastAPI or Next.js, as the tool's default configurations might require significant adjustment
