Swarms
Open-source multi-agent orchestration framework founded by Kye Gomez.
About
Swarms is an open-source multi-agent orchestration framework founded by Kye Gomez and maintained by The Swarm Corporation. The core swarms Python library lets developers compose agents into hierarchies, voting pools, and routing graphs, with a cloud API for serverless agent runs and a marketplace for agents, prompts, and tools.
The team publishes systems research alongside the framework, including the 2026 GraphWorkflow paper reporting a geometric-mean 7x speedup over LangGraph on compiled agent graphs. Install with pip install swarms and define agents with roles, system prompts, and model names.
What it can do
- Compose multi-agent systems: hierarchies, voting, routing graphs
- Cloud API for serverless swarm execution
- GraphWorkflow compile-once engine for faster agent graphs
Setup
Install with pip install swarms and set an LLM API key in the environment.
Prerequisites
Python and an LLM API key for the models your agents will use.
