## Choose when

### Choose langgraph4j if…

- langgraph4j is primarily Java; AgentGPT is TypeScript.
- License: langgraph4j is MIT, AgentGPT is GPL-3.0.
- Pricing: Available at no cost; commercial support and enterprise options may incur additional charges..
- Requirements: Min 1 GB RAM.
- Tags unique to langgraph4j: agents, ai, langchain4j, spring-ai.
- When you are building an application in the Java ecosystem that requires integration with both Langchain4j and Spring AI.

### Choose AgentGPT if…

- AgentGPT is primarily TypeScript; langgraph4j is Java.
- License: AgentGPT is GPL-3.0, langgraph4j is MIT.
- Tags unique to AgentGPT: agent, autonomous, backend-development, cli-setup.
- Also covers Developer Tools.
- AgentGPT ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
- When you want to leverage pre-configured setups for database integration (specifically MySQL) handled by AgentGPT's CLI

## When NOT to use langgraph4j

- Avoid using it if your project strictly limits external dependency versions and necessitates an older version of Java (prior to 17), as LangGraph4j demands at least Java 17.
- If you require the absolute latest features before official release, direct snapshot use might pose instability risks that could disrupt development cycles or production environments.

## When NOT to use AgentGPT

- Avoid using if your project requires a NoSQL database solution, given that AgentGPT is configured specifically with MySQL out-of-the-box
- Consider alternatives if your stack does not include FastAPI or Next.js, as the tool's default configurations might require significant adjustment
