Agno is a platform for building, running and managing agents for a company, its product or its customers. It pairs an open-source Python SDK for composing agents, multi-agent teams and workflows with AgentOS, a runtime that runs in the customer's own cloud.

**Key features:**

- Compose agents, teams and workflows from more than 100 toolkits in code, no-code or natural language.
- Manage chat, sessions, traces, memory, knowledge, evaluations, approvals and schedules from a control plane.
- Start from templates such as a support agent, deep research team or invoice workflow with approval gates.
- Serve agents over REST, over MCP in Claude and ChatGPT, or in Slack, Discord and WhatsApp.
- Build and improve the platform with coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex and Cursor.
- Deploy to Docker, AWS, Google Cloud, Railway or Fly.io.

Data and compute stay in the customer's cloud, and the company lists SOC 2 compliance. The runtime is free with a local control plane; Pro is $150/month for a live control plane connection and 3 seats, with a free trial, and Enterprise is custom.
