Make money with it
A freelancer could build and host custom AI agents for small businesses, charging for setup and a monthly support fee.
An idea, not financial advice. Check the licence before charging for anything built on it.
Ways a business could use it
- Build a customer support or internal helper agent and offer it through an API or Slack, reducing manual workload
- Automate recurring tasks such as report writing or data checks by running scheduled agents with human approval
Can you use it commercially?
Free to use, change and sell, including in paid products. Keep the copyright notice.
Not legal advice. Read the project's licence file before building a product on it.
Getting it running
Install the Python SDK, then clone a deployment template (such as the Docker or Railway one) and follow its setup instructions, ideally with a coding agent's help.
Follow the official instructions in the project README.
Things to check
- Needs paid API keys from a model provider such as Anthropic or OpenAI
- Sends anonymous telemetry by default (can be switched off with AGNO_TELEMETRY=false)
- The management UI at os.agno.com is a hosted service
- Setup needs developer skills
