Langflow

Langflow (DataStax)

Open-source, low-code visual builder for AI agents and RAG/workflow applications. You wire components on a drag-and-drop canvas, then expose flows as APIs or run them as agents. Its differentiator vs code-first peers (LangChain, LlamaIndex) is the visual editor with hundreds of pre-built components, while staying model-agnostic and Python-extensible.
