About AutoGen
AutoGen is Microsoft's open-source framework for building multi-agent conversational systems where agents can converse with each other and with humans to solve complex tasks. Agents are highly customizable and can use LLMs, tools, and human input in flexible combinations. The framework supports group chats, nested conversations, and code execution sandboxes, making it well-suited for coding assistants, research automation, and enterprise agentic workflows. AutoGen Studio provides a no-code UI for prototyping agent systems visually.
