Best ForTeams creating role-based multi-agent systems where specialized agents collaborate on complex projects.LangGraph is best for complex, multi-turn agent systems where branching logic, repeated tool use, and state persistence are critical—such as research assistants, planning agents, or approval-required workflows. It excels when you need explicit control over agentic loops, conditional routing, and the ability to pause/resume execution based on tool outcomes or human feedback.
