What is CrewAI?
Build and run teams of agents in production.
Who is CrewAI best for?
CrewAI is best for Python developers and company teams who want groups of AI agents to split up a job and run in production.
Python developers building agents
The open-source framework defines each agent by role, goal and tools in code or YAML, and it costs nothing to use.
Teams that prefer a visual builder
The Studio editor and its AI copilot build a workflow from a prompt on a canvas, and the result can be exported to Python.
Agents that need oversight in production
Every model call, tool call and memory read is traced with its cost, and approval steps can pause a run for a person to check.
Large companies with strict IT rules
Enterprise adds SSO, role-based access, PII redaction and the option to run the platform in your own VPC.
How much does CrewAI cost?
CrewAI's hosted Basic plan is free with 50 workflow executions a month, Enterprise is priced on request, and the open-source CrewAI framework is free under the MIT license.
- 50 workflow executions a month and 2 automations
- Visual editor with an AI copilot, GitHub integration
- Runs on CrewAI's cloud, community support
Enterprise is the only paid plan and is priced on request, with a trial on request. It adds execution limits sized to your workflows with flexible overage, enterprise connectors, SSO and role-based access, deployment in your own VPC or infrastructure, dedicated support and a 45-day onboarding.
