Teams do not all build the same way. Some need no-code speed; others need Python, SDKs and open-source flexibility for complex workflows. Most tools force you to choose.
With IBM® watsonx Orchestrate®, both are possible. You can use the no code AI Agent Builder to create AI agents with guided steps and templates, build with code to create custom AI agents in the Agent Development Kit (ADK) or visually prototype in Langflow. Whatever you build is governed, observable and connected to your workflows.
Langflow apps run as serverless tools within the ADK, with credentials managed centrally in watsonx Orchestrate. This simplifies debugging, deployment and policy control. Through AI Gateway, you can select the best large language model (LLM) for each use case—IBM Granite, OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Mistral or Ollama—without lock-in.
No-code builder lets anyone create and deploy AI agents fast, with guided flows, templates and hundreds of prebuilt tools.
Extend without limits
Developers use the Agent Development Kit (ADK) and Langflow to design complex agentic workflows, add custom functions and integrate with APIs, GitHub and more.
Choose your model
AI Gateway lets you bring the right LLM for the job—watsonx.ai, OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Mistral, Ollama—without lock-in.
How it works
No-code creation
Use guided steps to connect data, configure behaviors and automate tasks—no coding required.
Agent Development Kit (ADK)
Build expert agents with Python or CLI; test and deploy directly into watsonx Orchestrate.
Langflow integration
Prototype visually in Langflow, then deploy as serverless tools with centralized credential management.
AI Gateway
Configure approved LLM providers once and apply policies consistently across use cases.
