Apify Actors - Build and launch your own AI agents
5 No-code LLM, AI Agent Builders
Reading time: 3 minutes.
1M$ Challenge — TOGETHER WITH APIFY
Apify lets you turn any projects into a runnable micro-app called an Actor. Each Actor runs as a self-contained unit with defined inputs, outputs, and its own runtime.
You can package agents, MCP servers, crawlers, document analyzers, or AI tools that extract, parse, and summarize data, then deploy them as reusable Actors.
Apify is running the $1M Challenge. You can build and publish Actors for real-world use cases, with top projects earning up to $30K in cash prizes along with weekly rewards and community visibility.
Now, let’s dive back into the newsletter!
5 No-code LLM, AI Agent Builders
Building AI agents goes beyond prompt chaining. Real systems require workflow control, tool execution, document access, and visibility into agent behavior.
Proprietary builders simplify setup but limit control when you need deeper integrations, RAG, or self-hosted deployments.
Open-source no-code builders expose execution and configuration through UI-driven tools, letting you build agents, workflows, and retrieval pipelines without hand-written orchestration.
Below are five open-source, no-code builders for AI agents, RAG-based systems, and multi-step workflows.
1. AutoAgent
AutoAgent is a fully automated, zero-code LLM agent framework designed to execute end-to-end tasks from a high-level goal.
You define what you want to achieve in natural language, and the system handles task decomposition, planning, execution, and iteration without manual configuration.
Key Features:
No manual agent wiring or prompt engineering
Automatic task planning and execution loop
Designed for hands-off, goal-driven agent runs
2. LangChain Open Agent Platform
LangChain Open Agent Platform is a no-code UI built on top of LangGraph, exposing graph-based agent orchestration used in LangChain production systems.
Instead of hiding execution, it makes agent flow explicit through nodes, edges, and supervision logic. This is useful when you want control over routing, retries, and multi-agent coordination without writing graph code.
Key Features:
Visual interface for LangGraph-based agents
Supports supervisor and multi-agent patterns
Integrates naturally with LangChain tooling and RAG
3. AnythingLLM
AnythingLLM is a self-hosted, all-in-one platform for building internal AI tools around documents, chat, and agents.
It combines RAG, agent workflows, and knowledge bases into a single workspace that both technical and non-technical teams can use.
Key Features:
Built-in document ingestion and vector storage
Visual agent builder with tool and browsing support
Designed for internal knowledge assistants and team tools
4. Dify
Dify is an open-source platform for building and operating LLM-powered applications and agents, with a strong focus on UI-driven configuration and observability.
It supports prompt management, RAG pipelines, agent logic, and runtime monitoring, making it suitable for teams running AI features in production.
Key Features:
UI-first approach to LLM apps and agents
Supports RAG, tools, and multi-step workflows
Includes logging, monitoring, and versioning
5. Sim
Sim is a visual workflow builder for agent pipelines and AI-driven processes, with an AI copilot to help generate and modify flows.
Workflows are designed as executable graphs, with strong support for integrations and detailed execution tracing for debugging.
Key Features:
Drag-and-drop workflow design
AI copilot for generating agent flows
Execution tracing for inspection and debugging
Each tool approaches agents differently, from automated execution to supervised workflows and RAG-driven systems. The right choice depends on how much control, visibility, and integration your use case requires.
