Who Is Agent Kernel Built For?

Agent Kernel is an open-source runtime that lets you build, test, and deploy AI agents to production in days instead of months. It works with any major AI framework (OpenAI, LangGraph, CrewAI, Google ADK) and can run agents from multiple frameworks together in a single runtime. It deploys to AWS, Azure, GCP, or your own servers with zero platform code.

Why Teams Choose Agent Kernel

What makes Agent Kernel different from rolling your own or using other platforms.

Framework-Neutral

The only runtime that lets you bring inswap between agents written from OpenAI Agents, CrewAI, LangGraph, and Google ADK, Smolagents, LiveKit with near-zero code change - and run all of them simultaneously in a single runtime.

Multi-Cloud Native

Same agent code deploys to AWS, Azure, and GCP out of the box. No other AI agent runtime offers this out of the box.

Full Lifecycle

Build → Test → Deploy → Monitor. One tool that takes you from a Python script to a multi-AZ production cluster.

Lightweight

A thin adapter layer, not a heavy abstraction. Bring your existing agent code and wrap it in minutes, not days.

Production-Ready

Fault tolerance, guardrails, observability, and session management built in from day one - not bolted on later.

Built-in Messaging

Slack, WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram, Messenger, Gmail - ship working integrations on day one, not months later.

Open-Source

No usage fees, no proprietary lock-in. Community-driven with full codebase access - fork it, extend it, contribute back.

Protocol Support

MCP and A2A server modes for future-proof agent architectures and full ecosystem compatibility out of the box.
