## Choose when

### Choose txtai if…

- License: txtai is Apache-2.0, EnterpriseRAG-Bench is MIT.
- Tags unique to txtai: agents, ai, ai-agents, embeddings.
- Also covers AI Agents, Inference & Serving, Model Training, Vector Databases.
- When you need a comprehensive framework that integrates semantic search, LLM orchestration, and language model workflows in a single package.

### Choose EnterpriseRAG-Bench if…

- License: EnterpriseRAG-Bench is MIT, txtai is Apache-2.0.
- Tags unique to EnterpriseRAG-Bench: benchmark, dataset, enterprise-search, evaluation.
- When you need to evaluate retrieval-augmented generation models specifically for processing extensive and complex enterprise documentation

## When NOT to use txtai

- If your project strictly requires a framework that is not Python-based, as txtai is specifically designed for Python environments.
- When you need a tool that focuses solely on a specific aspect of AI, such as only semantic search or only LLM orchestration, as txtai's all-in-one approach might introduce unnecessary complexity.
- If your project cannot accommodate the Apache-2.0 license, as txtai is distributed under this license and may not be suitable for projects with different licensing requirements.

## When NOT to use EnterpriseRAG-Bench

- Avoid if your focus is on general web or public-domain document benchmarking, as EnterpriseRAG-Bench is tuned exclusively for company internal documents
- Do not use if you require a solution that supports languages other than those implied by the existing dataset without further customization
