## Choose when

### Choose clyro if…

- License: clyro is Apache-2.0, Agent-Reach is MIT.
- Requirements: Requires Python version 3.11 or higher.; Additional dependencies include httpx, pydantic, structlog, tenacity, aiosqlite, and pyyaml..
- Tags unique to clyro: agents, ai-governance, cost-limits, infinite-loops.
- Also covers Evaluation & Observability.
- When you want automated cost control measures that halt execution before spending exceeds a predetermined threshold, unlike competitors that may only notify you of overruns.

### Choose Agent-Reach if…

- License: Agent-Reach is MIT, clyro 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 clyro

- In situations demanding lightweight solutions without extensive dependencies since Clyro requires specific versions and additional Python packages like httpx and pydantic.
- When you prioritize manual inspection over automated monitoring; Clyro is best for use cases where automated intervention in response to potential failures is more beneficial than human oversight.

## 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
