# openagent vs FastGPT

*GraphCanon updated Sep 20, 2026*

## Verdict

Pick openagent if openAgent integrates OpenAI and Dify, focusing on deep reasoning loops, visual workflows, RAG, and agent delegation in Python under MIT license; pick FastGPT if fastGPT is a knowledge-based platform for developing and deploying complex question-answering systems, offering out-of-the-box capabilities for data processing, RAG retrieval, and visual AI workflow orchestration.

[openagent](https://openllm.cloud) reports 811 GitHub stars, 82 forks, and 49 open issues, last pushed Jul 17, 2026. [FastGPT](https://fastgpt.io) has 30k stars, 7.3k forks, and 170 open issues, last pushed Sep 18, 2026. Figures are from public GitHub metadata via [openagent's repository](https://github.com/Haohao-end/openagent) and [FastGPT's repository](https://github.com/labring/FastGPT).

## Decision facts: openagent

- **Adopt for:** OpenAgent integrates OpenAI and Dify, focusing on deep reasoning loops, visual workflows, RAG, and agent delegation in Python under MIT license.

## Decision facts: FastGPT

- **Adopt for:** FastGPT is a knowledge-based platform for developing and deploying complex question-answering systems, offering out-of-the-box capabilities for data processing, RAG retrieval, and visual AI workflow orchestration.

## Choose when

### Choose openagent if…

- openagent is primarily Python; FastGPT is TypeScript.
- License: openagent is MIT, FastGPT is Other.
- Tags unique to openagent: ai, celery, deepagents, deepresearch.
- Also covers Vector Databases.
- Need integration of OpenAI and Dify functionalities.

### Choose FastGPT if…

- FastGPT is primarily TypeScript; openagent is Python.
- License: FastGPT is Other, openagent is MIT.
- Tags unique to FastGPT: claude, deepseek, llm, mcp.
- Also covers Developer Tools, Model Training.
- When you need a comprehensive platform that supports data processing, RAG retrieval, and visual AI workflow orchestration for developing complex question-answering systems.

## When NOT to use openagent

- Projects requiring only basic AI functionality without deep reasoning loops or RAG.
- Teams preferring non-Python environments for AI agent development.

## When NOT to use FastGPT

- If you are looking for a platform that supports real-time AI plugin generation, as this feature is not yet available in FastGPT.
- When you need a platform that supports RAG module hot updates or Agent-loop hot updates, as these features are currently under development.
- If you require advanced debugging modes for complex workflows, as this feature is not yet implemented in FastGPT.
