## Choose when

### Choose AgentGPT if…

- AgentGPT is primarily TypeScript; row-bot is Python.
- License: AgentGPT is GPL-3.0, row-bot is Apache-2.0.
- 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

### Choose row-bot if…

- row-bot is primarily Python; AgentGPT is TypeScript.
- License: row-bot is Apache-2.0, AgentGPT is GPL-3.0.
- Tags unique to row-bot: ai-assistant, langchain, local-llm, ollama.
- Also covers Computer Vision, Data & Retrieval, Speech & Audio.
- When you prioritize data privacy and prefer all models to run locally via Ollama or your chosen environment.

## 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

## When NOT to use row-bot

- If you are looking for an assistant that runs exclusively in the cloud because Row-Bot focuses on local-first integration with optional cloud services.
- In scenarios where centralized data management is a requirement as Row-Bot emphasizes data sovereignty by keeping information locally accessible and secure.
