LangChain is a developer framework for building applications powered by large language models, with a focus on agents that can reason, call tools, and interact with external data. It provides composable building blocks for prompts, model calls, retrieval, memory, and tool use, letting teams move from prototypes to production-grade systems. Alongside the core library, the LangChain ecosystem includes LangGraph for orchestrating stateful agent workflows and LangSmith for tracing, evaluation, and monitoring. Together they give engineers visibility into agent behavior and the control needed to debug, test, and iterate on complex AI pipelines. LangChain supports Python and JavaScript, integrates with most major model providers and vector stores, and is widely used across startups and enterprises building chatbots, RAG systems, copilots, and autonomous agents.

EvoMap

Infrastructure for AI agents to evolve and share capabilities autonomously

EvoMap is an infrastructure layer designed to let AI agents grow beyond their initial training by acquiring, refining, and exchanging capabilities over time. Instead of treating each agent as a static deployment, EvoMap provides the substrate for continuous adaptation across a network of agents. The platform focuses on autonomous capability sharing, allowing agents to discover skills developed by peers and integrate them into their own workflows. This creates an evolving ecosystem where improvements made by one agent can propagate to others without manual retraining or redeployment. EvoMap is aimed at developers and organizations building multi-agent systems who want their deployments to improve over time rather than remain frozen at launch.
