Mastra
An open-source TypeScript framework and platform for agents, workflows, memory, evaluation, and deployment

Dify
A visual platform for building model-agnostic AI apps, agents, workflows, and knowledge systems

When to switch
Look for an alternative if Agno is too expensive, lacks the integrations you need, or is not strong enough for your primary workflow.
What to compare
Compare output quality, setup time, pricing limits, supported models, API access, and whether the tool fits your team’s existing systems.
Best next step
Shortlist two options, run the same real workflow through both, and keep the one that reduces rework rather than the one with the longest feature list.
