CrewAI
CrewAI is an open-source framework that enables developers to build and manage teams of AI agents that collaborate like human experts. Each agent has specific roles, goals, and tools. These agents communicate, delegate tasks, and share insights to tackle complex problems that would be difficult for a single AI system. The framework provides a structured way to organize workflows and processes, making it ideal for multi-step tasks requiring diverse expertise.
