## Choose when

### Choose pyspur if…

- License: pyspur is Apache-2.0, AgentGPT is GPL-3.0.
- Tags unique to pyspur: agents, ai, builder, framework.
- Need rapid iteration with visual tools

### Choose AgentGPT if…

- License: AgentGPT is GPL-3.0, pyspur is Apache-2.0.
- Tags unique to AgentGPT: autonomous, backend-development, cli-setup, database-integration.
- When you want to leverage pre-configured setups for database integration (specifically MySQL) handled by AgentGPT's CLI

## When NOT to use pyspur

- Focus is strictly on server-side automation without UI
- Prefer Python for all aspects of development workflow
- Require immediate compatibility with PostgreSQL only

## 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
