Dynamiq vs CrewAI

DynamiqEnterprises in regulated industries that need chat, voice and workflow agents on one governed stack, deployed inside their own environment.

CrewAIBusiness and technical teams that build multi-agent crews and flows, with platform teams governing them in CrewAI AMP.

DynamiqDynamiq Cloud, or self-hosted on your AWS, Azure, GCP, IBM Cloud, Red Hat OpenShift or any Kubernetes 1.32+ cluster, or on-prem. Fully isolated or air-gapped setups are delivered with our engineers.

CrewAIThe open-source framework runs wherever Python runs. CrewAI AMP deploys on CrewAI's cloud, your VPC or your own infrastructure through CrewAI Factory, on Kubernetes such as EKS, AKS, GKE or Red Hat OpenShift.

DynamiqYes. Self-hosted on your cloud or on-prem, or Dynamiq Cloud; both run the same engine.

CrewAIYes. The MIT framework runs in your environment, and CrewAI Factory self-hosts the AMP platform in a data center or VPC.

DynamiqThe Python SDK is open source under Apache-2.0 (github.com/dynamiq-ai/dynamiq), and the visual canvas runs on the same engine. The platform around it is not open source.

CrewAIThe crewAI framework is open source under the MIT license, per its GitHub repository; CrewAI AMP is a commercial platform with a free Basic tier.

Dynamiq29 model providers in the SDK, the most-used models behind one OpenAI-compatible AI Gateway endpoint, plus open models served on vLLM and LoRA fine-tuning.

CrewAIProviders documented on its LLMs page include OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Azure, AWS Bedrock, Mistral, NVIDIA, Groq, IBM watsonx.ai and Ollama, through each provider's native SDK.

DynamiqChat, inbound voice and workflow agents on one engine. AI Coworker works with its own cloud sandbox computer, in the browser, Slack, Microsoft Teams and Telegram; Voice Agents answer inbound calls; Agent Builder runs workflow agents.

CrewAIMulti-agent crews and event-driven flows, conversational flows for multi-turn chat, and workflow chat in a web UI, Slack or Teams; no voice agent product is described.

DynamiqAgent Builder pairs a visual canvas with the open-source Python SDK on one engine, with Choice and rules nodes, workflows generated from a prompt, and versions with rollback.

CrewAIA code-first Python framework (crews, agents, tasks and flows, in code or YAML) with a CLI, plus Crew Studio, a no-code visual editor on the free plan that exports to Python, and exports as MCP servers or UI components.

DynamiqSession memory scoped by user and session, plus long-term memory, where the agent decides when to save and recall durable, user-scoped facts that people can see and correct. Knowledge adds ingestion pipelines, permission-aware retrieval filters and knowledge graphs.

CrewAIMemory and knowledge are built into the framework, alongside guardrails and observability, per CrewAI's docs.

DynamiqGuardrails that detect PII and prompt injection, policy detection, validators and approvals with editable fields on any tool step, on every plan; SSO (OIDC with Okta and Microsoft Entra ID) on Enterprise.

CrewAIGuardrails and human-in-the-loop approval gates in the framework; AMP Enterprise adds SSO with Microsoft Entra ID, Okta and other providers over SAML or OIDC, RBAC with custom roles, immutable audit trails, PII redaction and a hallucination guardrail.

DynamiqEvals with datasets built from traces, LLM-as-a-judge, predefined and code metrics, and real-time evaluations on live deployments; traces with cost and latency per node, monitoring, and an AI agent that surfaces issues from production traces.

CrewAIReal-time tracing of LLM calls, tool calls and memory reads with cost accounting, OpenTelemetry export, crewai test and eval commands, and evaluation through partners such as Arize, Galileo, Datadog and Patronus.

Dynamiq2,100+ app integrations and 11,800+ actions, plus MCP servers and per-user connections.

CrewAICrew Studio connects to more than 1,000 applications, and the framework ships hundreds of open-source tools with MCP support.

DynamiqSOC 2 and CASA Tier 2, with a BAA for HIPAA workloads and a DPA under GDPR.

CrewAICrewAI cites a SOC 2 report and a HIPAA Security Rule gap assessment, per a May 2025 post on its blog.

DynamiqForward-deployed engineers run a bootcamp in your environment, ship the first production agent with your team, then hand over.

CrewAIForward-deployed engineering and training are available a la carte, and Enterprise includes a 45-day onboarding with support for deployment and development, per CrewAI's pricing page.

DynamiqFree to start ($0), and Enterprise with custom pricing. Available on AWS Marketplace, Microsoft Azure Marketplace and IBM Marketplace.

CrewAIA free Basic plan with 50 workflow executions a month and the Studio editor, and custom Enterprise pricing sized to your workflows, per CrewAI's pricing page.
