🔥Today we’re excited to announce new funding for LangChain (at a $1.25B valuation) to allow us to build the platform for agent engineering. LangChain started as a single Python package 3 years ago. Since then, we’ve evolved into a comprehensive platform for agent engineering

Come watch us yap about voice agents!
Voice agents are hard to build. We see two architectures dominate: 1. STT → LLM → TTS (the "sandwich") 2. Speech-to-speech (realtime) Both have trade-offs. The sandwich is model-agnostic, and you can extend existing text agents without rewiring it. But stitching together

For everyone out there in the trenches building voice agents… 🗣️ for everyone fighting to get that last 20% right… for everyone who still wonders how to do observability + evals the right way… 📈 @huntlovell just dropped a fantastic primer on building production-ready voice

When you spend enough time watching agents break in the weirdest, least predictable ways… you start to design differently. That’s why we built createAgent and middleware the way we did — to make the actual agent-engineering loop (ship → observe → refine) less painful and more
Agent engineering: A new discipline Traditional software assumes known inputs and predictable behavior. Agents give you neither. That’s why teams shipping reliable agents are adopting a new discipline: agent engineering. Agent engineering is driven by a few core ideas: 🔹

Deep Agents represent a shift in how AI systems operate – unlike simple chatbots or basic RAG applications, these agents run for extended periods, execute multiple sub-tasks, and make complex decisions autonomously. In this webinar, we'll dive into practical approaches for

Dexter is now 73% faster. What changed: • simpler task planning • cached tool outputs • shorter summaries LLM calls dropped by more than half. Costs dropped too. Next: smarter model selection so each task uses the right LLM.

Want to see AI-first at scale? Check out Thomas Menard and the rockstar team at @LOrealParisUSA showing us how it’s done. Embracing AI to drive “idea to impact” in less than 90 days for a 100,000 person enterprise is impressive. To do it in May 2024 is outrageous. My man

In case you haven't been following.... LangGraph.js just passed 1,000,000 downloads a week! This is double the weekly downloads from just 40 days ago! The team has been working insanely hard on making LangGraph the best agent orchestration framework out there, and the download

i wrote this post after a great discussion w/ @peakji abt context engineering in @ManusAI. Peak’s slides + video link below! https://t.co/88c1ooe82h
This is a very good post on agent design https://t.co/pEbNUJsOme

Reminds me of: Agents should be more opinionated by @Vtrivedy10

The best agent products aren't the most flexible, they're the most opinionated. Learn why agents need fewer knobs, not more, and how to design around model intelligence spikes.

❓How are evals and observability different from AI agents compared to simpler LLM applications? Come join me and Nick this Thursday as we discuss patterns we are seeing in the wild Will be a combo of presentation with a chunk of Q&A at the end! https://t.co/XfOq4d2VPu

Understanding how agents behave and how to improve their quality isn’t straightforward. Our "Getting Started with LangSmith" video series shows you can use LangSmith for: • Observability to understand what your agent is doing • Evaluation to track quality and catch regressions
