## Choose when

### Choose chainlit if…

- Tags unique to chainlit: chatgpt, langchain, llm, openai.
- - When you want to develop conversational AI applications rapidly using familiar Python syntax.
- More GitHub stars (12k vs 1.1k) - visibility, not fit.

### Choose JamAIBase if…

- Pricing: ${price_details}.
- Requirements: Requires Python environment; {language}-based programming knowledge; Familiarity with AI model orchestration and prompt design.
- Tags unique to JamAIBase: agents, ai-agents-framework, backend-as-a-service, chatbot.
- Use JamAIBase when you need a team-friendly environment to experiment with various prompts and evaluate responses in real time through interactive spreadsheets.

## When NOT to use chainlit

- - Avoid if your development team is not comfortable with Python as Chainlit relies heavily on its ecosystem for rapid conversational AI development.
- - Not suitable if you require customization in low-level components, as it abstracts a lot of these away to provide quick builds.

## When NOT to use JamAIBase

- Avoid JamAIBase when you prefer command-line or scripting interfaces over spreadsheet-like visual interfaces for workflow creation and testing.
- Do not use JamAIBase if your team lacks familiarity with spreadsheets, as its interface might not align with preferred development methods.
