Introducing Orkee: The Open Source Platform for AI Agent Systems

Today we're launching Orkee, a comprehensive platform for building, orchestrating, and observing AI agent systems in production.

We’re thrilled to announce the launch of Orkee, an open-source platform designed to solve the hardest challenges in building production AI agent systems.

Why We Built Orkee

As AI agents become more sophisticated, developers face new challenges:

  • Complex Orchestration - Coordinating multiple agents with different capabilities
  • Observability Gaps - Understanding what agents are doing and why they fail
  • Cost Management - Preventing runaway token usage and API costs
  • Production Safety - Ensuring reliable, predictable agent behavior at scale

Key Features

Multi-Agent Orchestration

Build sophisticated agent workflows with:

  • Sequential and parallel execution
  • Conditional branching
  • Error handling and retries
  • Inter-agent communication

Real-time Observability

Monitor every aspect of your AI systems:

  • Token usage and costs per agent
  • Execution traces and timelines
  • Success/failure rates
  • Performance bottlenecks

Production-Ready CLI

# Create specialized agents
orkee agent create researcher --model claude-3

# Build complex workflows
orkee workflow add rag-pipeline --steps extract,embed,retrieve,generate

# Monitor in real-time
orkee observe --workflow rag-pipeline --metrics

Beautiful Web Dashboard

For those who prefer a visual interface, our web dashboard provides:

  • Kanban boards
  • Gantt charts
  • Analytics and insights
  • Team collaboration tools

Getting Started

Installing Orkee is simple:

# macOS/Linux
brew install orkee

# Or with Cargo
cargo install orkee-cli

What’s Next

We’re just getting started! Our roadmap includes:

  • Mobile applications
  • Advanced automation features
  • Plugin ecosystem
  • Enterprise features
