I know they're not considered the leader in the foundational model space, but their developer documentation is great, their api is really nice to use, and they have a set of products that really differentiate themselves from OpenAI and Anthropic and others. I'm rooting for the success of this company.
That said, we as an industry need to be moving away from langchain, not more deeply embedding ourselves in that monstrosity. It’s just way too much of its own thing now and you can totally start to see how the VC funding is shaping their incentives. They put everyone who uses it in a position of massive technical debt, create more abstractions like langgraph to lock people into their tools and then and then create paid tools on top of it to solve the problems that they created (langsmith).
