Editorial verdict

Second-largest Python deployment footprint with real Fortune 500 adoption. Consistently rated 'fastest to prototype' — not marketing copy but backed by independent consensus. The right default for role-based business workflow automation teams prioritizing speed. Trade off: observability less mature than LangGraph without AMP Suite.
