It provides roles akin to real-world positions ## When NOT to use oasis - Your project requires simulation of fewer than 1,000 agents because OASIS is optimized for large-scale simulations with up to one million agents. - If your focus is on platforms that do not resemble Twitter or Reddit in terms of user interaction patterns, as OASIS's environments are specifically adapted for these types of social dynamics. ## When NOT to use MetaGPT - When seeking simpler tools for basic task automation without the need for a multi-agent framework - If you are looking for real-time human interaction or non-GPT based models, as MetaGPT is specifically built around GPT-based agents ## Common questions ### What is the difference between oasis and MetaGPT? oasis: 🏝️ OASIS: Open Agent Social Interaction Simulations with One Million Agents. MetaGPT: The Multi-Agent Framework: First AI Software Company, Towards Natural Language Programming. See the comparison table for live GitHub stats and shared categories. ### When should I choose oasis over MetaGPT? Choose oasis over MetaGPT when License: oasis is Apache-2.0, MetaGPT is MIT; Pricing: The project is open-source and freely available for download and use; however, there might be associated costs with cloud services or API calls if utilized.; Requirements: Min 16 GB RAM; Graph edge: oasis is a typed related of MetaGPT - see the relationship row above; Tags unique to oasis: deep-learning, ai-societies, large-language-models, natural-language-processing; You need scalable simulations involving up to a million users to study information spread in large-scale networks. ### When should I choose MetaGPT over oasis? Choose MetaGPT over oasis when License: MetaGPT is MIT, oasis is Apache-2.0; Requirements: Requires Docker; Support for Python 3.9 to less than 3.12; Requires installation of node and pnpm before actual use; Graph edge: MetaGPT is a typed related of oasis - see the relationship row above; Tags unique to MetaGPT: multi-agent, llm, metagpt, gpt; MetaGPT ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment; MetaGPT is a multi-agent framework utilizing GPT models to simulate an AI software company for handling complex tasks through collaboration and natural language programming. It provides roles akin to real-world positions. ### When should I avoid oasis? Your project requires simulation of fewer than 1,000 agents because OASIS is optimized for large-scale simulations with up to one million agents. If your focus is on platforms that do not resemble Twitter or Reddit in terms of user interaction patterns, as OASIS's environments are specifically adapted for these types of social dynamics. ### When should I avoid MetaGPT? When seeking simpler tools for basic task automation without the need for a multi-agent framework If you are looking for real-time human interaction or non-GPT based models, as MetaGPT is specifically built around GPT-based agents ### Is oasis or MetaGPT more popular on GitHub? MetaGPT has more GitHub stars (69,260 vs 4,906). Stars measure visibility, not whether either tool fits your constraints. ### Are oasis and MetaGPT open source? Yes - both are open-source projects on GitHub (oasis: Apache-2.0, MetaGPT: MIT). ### Where can I find alternatives to oasis or MetaGPT? GraphCanon lists graph-backed alternatives at /tools/camel-ai-oasis/alternatives and /tools/foundationagents-metagpt/alternatives (/tools/camel-ai-oasis/alternatives.md, /tools/foundationagents-metagpt/alternatives.md), ranked by typed relationship edges rather than popularity votes. ### Is there a machine-readable version of this comparison? Yes. The markdown twin at /compare/camel-ai-oasis-vs-foundationagents-metagpt.md mirrors this page for agents and LLM crawlers, with the same stats table and FAQ answers. ### Which is better maintained, oasis or MetaGPT? oasis: Active. MetaGPT: Slowing. Compare maintenance labels, days since push, and release cadence in the trust section below - stars alone do not measure maintenance. ### Where are the full trust reports for oasis and MetaGPT?
