## Choose when

### Choose clusternet if…

- clusternet is primarily Go; Agent-Reach is Python.
- License: clusternet is Apache-2.0, Agent-Reach is MIT.
- Tags unique to clusternet: cloud-native, cluster-management, distributed-cloud, edge-cloud.

### Choose Agent-Reach if…

- Agent-Reach is primarily Python; clusternet is Go.
- License: Agent-Reach is MIT, clusternet is Apache-2.0.
- Tags unique to Agent-Reach: agent-infrastructure, ai-agent, ai-search, automation.
- Also covers Data & Retrieval.
- When needing to bypass costly API fees for extensive social media platform data extraction

## When NOT to use clusternet

- AI Agents: Don't use an agent loop when a deterministic workflow would do; agents add latency, cost, and non-determinism.

## When NOT to use Agent-Reach

- If strict compliance with website scraping policies is critical due to its use of scraping techniques
- When direct interaction through APIs for precision and reliability is preferred over scraping
