When to use a Workflow vs a Team in Agno
Agno offers two powerful ways to build multi-agent systems: Workflows and Teams. Each is suited for different kinds of use-cases.
Use a Workflow when:
You want to execute a fixed series of steps with a predictable outcome.
Workflows are ideal for:
- Step-by-step agent executions
- Data extraction or transformation
- Tasks that don’t need reasoning or decision-making
Use an Agent Team when:
Your task requires reasoning, collaboration, or multi-tool decision-making.
Agent Teams are best for:
- Research and planning
- Tasks where agents divide responsibilities
💡 Pro Tip
Think of Workflows as assembly lines for known tasks, and Agent Teams as collaborative task forces for solving open-ended problems.
