# agentdojo vs BIPIA

*GraphCanon updated Aug 5, 2026*

## Verdict

Pick agentdojo if agentDojo serves as a benchmarking environment to evaluate security attacks, like prompt injection, and defenses for Large Language Model (LLM) agents; pick BIPIA if bIPIA, developed by Microsoft, is a benchmarking tool designed to assess the robustness and security of Large Language Models (LLMs) against indirect prompt injection attacks.

[agentdojo](https://agentdojo.spylab.ai/) reports 716 GitHub stars, 188 forks, and 41 open issues, last pushed Jun 2, 2026. [BIPIA](https://github.com/microsoft/BIPIA) has 149 stars, 19 forks, and 4 open issues, last pushed Apr 15, 2024. Figures are from public GitHub metadata via [agentdojo's repository](https://github.com/ethz-spylab/agentdojo) and [BIPIA's repository](https://github.com/microsoft/BIPIA).

## Shared compatibility

- **Python**: [agentdojo](/tools/ethz-spylab-agentdojo.md) - Python runtime; [BIPIA](/tools/microsoft-bipia.md) - Python runtime

## Decision facts: agentdojo

- **Pricing:** freemium - Open-source under the MIT License. Some advanced features might require additional libraries or APIs.
- **Requirements:** Min 8 GB RAM
- **Adopt for:** AgentDojo serves as a benchmarking environment to evaluate security attacks, like prompt injection, and defenses for Large Language Model (LLM) agents.

## Decision facts: BIPIA

- **Requirements:** For API-based model experiments (like GPT), no GPU is needed but an account's API key must be set up.; For open-source models of 13B or below, test on a machine with at least 2 V100 GPUs. For larger models over 13B, 4-8 V100 GPUs are required.
- **Adopt for:** BIPIA, developed by Microsoft, is a benchmarking tool designed to assess the robustness and security of Large Language Models (LLMs) against indirect prompt injection attacks.

## Choose when

### Choose agentdojo if…

- License: agentdojo is MIT, BIPIA is Other.
- Pricing: Open-source under the MIT License. Some advanced features might require additional libraries or APIs..
- Requirements: Min 8 GB RAM.
- Tags unique to agentdojo: benchmark, large language models, prompt-injection, security.
- Also covers AI Agents.
- AgentDojo serves as a benchmarking environment to evaluate security attacks, like prompt injection, and defenses for Large Language Model (LLM) agents.

### Choose BIPIA if…

- License: BIPIA is Other, agentdojo is MIT.
- Requirements: For API-based model experiments (like GPT), no GPU is needed but an account's API key must be set up.; For open-source models of 13B or below, test on a machine with at least 2 V100 GPUs. For larger models over 13B, 4-8 V100 GPUs are required..
- Tags unique to BIPIA: indirect-prompt-injection-attacks, llm security, microsoft-research, python library.
- Use BIPIA when you need to evaluate your LLM's resilience specifically to indirect prompt injection attacks, a niche but critical type of adversarial attack.

## When NOT to use agentdojo

- AI Agents: Don't use an agent loop when a deterministic workflow would do; agents add latency, cost, and non-determinism.
- Evaluation & Observability: Defer heavyweight eval infra only until you have real traffic - never skip it once users depend on answers.

## When NOT to use BIPIA

- Avoid BIPIA if your primary focus is on general security enhancements without a particular emphasis on indirect prompt injection attacks.
- Not recommended for users who primarily operate outside a Linux environment, specifically Ubuntu 20.04.6, as it can significantly affect compatibility and performance.
