## Verdict

**Open-source agent framework that now sells a self-driving agent platform you run in your own cloud.**

Good for:
- Teams that want to run agents in their own cloud

Skip if:
- You need a no-code builder

Tested. Tested 2026-10-25 (America/Chicago). Agno 3.1.10 passed our one-tool task on a local 3B model: 3 of 3 trials; cold uv install 1.8 s. Test environment: Linux x86_64 virtual machine (Debian 13), 8 vCPU, 15 GiB RAM, no GPU; no vendor account, login or API key. Agent tools were pointed at a local open-weight model (Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct (Q4_K_M) through Ollama 0.40.11), so we tested the tool, not any vendor's hosted models. Not tested: Any vendor-hosted model: everything ran on a local 3B model, so tool-call reliability with frontier models is not measured here; Multi-agent flows, memory, long conversations, streaming, tracing and cloud deployment; Anything beyond one tool and one question; three trials is a smoke test, not a benchmark. These are smoke tests, not a benchmark. Full log: /tests/agno.
