Fast and Flexible Multi-Agent Automation Framework
CrewAI is an open-source Python framework with high-level abstractions and low-level APIs for building production-ready multi-agent workflows. It gives developers autonomous agent collaboration through Crews and precise, event-driven control through Flows.
- CrewAI Crews: Optimize for autonomy and collaborative intelligence with role-based AI agents.
- CrewAI Flows: Build event-driven automations that combine precise workflow control, single LLM calls, and native support for Crews.
With over 100,000 developers certified through our community courses at learn.crewai.com, CrewAI is rapidly becoming the standard for production-ready agentic automation.

Build with AI
Using an AI coding agent? Teach it CrewAI best practices in one command:
Claude Code:
/plugin marketplace add crewAIInc/skills
/plugin install crewai-skills@crewai-plugins
/reload-plugins
Four skills that activate automatically when you ask relevant CrewAI questions:
| Skill | When it runs |
|-------|--------------|
| getting-started | Scaffolding new projects, choosing between LLM.call() / Agent / Crew / Flow, wiring crew.py / main.py |
| design-agent | Configuring agents — role, goal, backstory, tools, LLMs, memory, guardrails |
| design-task | Writing task descriptions, dependencies, structured output (output_pydantic, output_json), human review |
| ask-docs | Querying the live CrewAI docs MCP server for up-to-date API details |

Understanding Flows and Crews
CrewAI offers two powerful, complementary approaches that work seamlessly together to build sophisticated AI applications:
-
Crews: Teams of AI agents with true autonomy and agency, working together to accomplish complex tasks through role-based collaboration. Crews enable:
- Natural, autonomous decision-making between agents
- Dynamic task delegation and collaboration
- Specialized roles with defined goals and expertise
- Flexible problem-solving approaches
-
Flows: Production-ready, event-driven workflows that deliver precise control over complex automations. Flows provide:
- Fine-grained control over execution paths for real-world scenarios
- Secure, consistent state management between tasks
- Clean integration of AI agents with production Python code
- Conditional branching for complex business logic
The true power of CrewAI emerges when combining Crews and Flows. This synergy allows you to:
- Build complex, production-grade applications
- Balance autonomy with precise control
- Handle sophisticated real-world scenarios
- Maintain clean, maintainable code structure
Getting Started with Installation
To get started with CrewAI, follow these simple steps:
1. Installation
Ensure you have Python >=3.10 <3.14 installed on your system. CrewAI uses UV for dependency management and package handling, offering a seamless setup and execution experience.
First, install CrewAI:
uv pip install crewai
If you want to install the 'crewai' package along with its optional features that include additional tools for agents, you can do so by using the following command:
uv pip install 'crewai[tools]'
