# LightRAG vs AutoGPT

LightRAG and AutoGPT share 6 technologies: React, FastAPI, Postgres, Redis, OpenAI, and Anthropic. Both are written in Python.

- [HKUDS/LightRAG](https://seerepo.com/r/HKUDS/LightRAG): [EMNLP2025] LightRAG: Simple and Fast Retrieval-Augmented Generation
- [Significant-Gravitas/AutoGPT](https://seerepo.com/r/Significant-Gravitas/AutoGPT): AutoGPT is the vision of accessible AI for everyone, to use and to build on. Our mission is to provide the tools, so that you can focus on what matters.

## What they share and what sets them apart

- In common: React, FastAPI, Postgres, Redis, OpenAI, Anthropic
- Only in LightRAG: Vite, MongoDB
- Only in AutoGPT: Next.js, Sentry, Stripe, PostHog, Claude, Replicate, Todoist, Google, Google Maps, ElevenLabs

## Side by side

| | LightRAG | AutoGPT |
|---|---|---|
| Size | 442,998 lines written, 338 code files | 1,630,074 lines written, 4,321 code files |
| Who writes it | 19.8% of its commits signed by AI. With Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Jules | 15.7% of its commits signed by AI. With Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, CodeRabbit, Mistral Vibe, Factory, Codex, Devin, and Gemini CLI |
| Activity | Last push October 29, 2026, 8,260 commits, 40,452 stars | Last push October 29, 2026, 9,377 commits, 187,811 stars |
| Tests | 676 test files. 66% of its code files have a test that imports them | 2,794 test files. 51.8% of its code files have a test that imports them |

- Size: Lines written by people and agents, without generated ones; code files, without tests.
- Who writes it: A commit counts as AI's when it carries its signature: a Co-Authored-By line, its author name or the merge of its branch.
- Activity: From GitHub and its history, on the day SeeRepo read it.
- Tests: The files that test the code, and the share of code files a test imports.
