## Choose when

### Choose agenticSeek if…

- agenticSeek is primarily Python; HyperAgent is TypeScript.
- License: agenticSeek is GPL-3.0, HyperAgent is Other.
- Pricing: agenticSeek is free to use, but users must cover the cost of running the software on their local hardware..
- Tags unique to agenticSeek: agentic-ai, agents, autonomous-agents, deepseek-r1.
- agenticSeek ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
- Use agenticSeek when you need a fully local AI agent that can perform autonomous tasks, web browsing, and coding without the need for external APIs or high-cost subscriptions.

### Choose HyperAgent if…

- HyperAgent is primarily TypeScript; agenticSeek is Python.

- Tags unique to HyperAgent: agent, automation, chrome, playwright.
- HyperAgent ships an MCP server manifest.
- When you need to integrate advanced AI-driven decisions into your web automation workflows

## When NOT to use agenticSeek

- Avoid using agenticSeek if your hardware cannot support running LLMs locally, as it does not provide an option to use external APIs for LLM services.
- Do not use agenticSeek if you require stealth mode for web browsing, as the Docker volume mount approach may not work with `undetected_chromedriver`.
- If you need to run agenticSeek in an environment where the Docker bridge cannot connect to the host's Ollama server, this tool may not be suitable without additional configuration.

## When NOT to use HyperAgent

- Avoid if the project does not require browser-based tasks or interactivity with websites
- Do not use HyperAgent if you prefer native Python tools for browser automation, as it uses TypeScript
