Orchestration

Exogram vs CrewAI

Multi-agent teams. No execution boundary.

What CrewAI Does

  • CrewAI enables multi-agent collaboration with role-based agents, task delegation, and sequential/parallel execution.
  • Agents work together toward a shared goal, delegating tasks and sharing context.
  • No execution governance. No validation of individual agent actions.
  • Multi-agent systems multiply the attack surface — more agents = more risk.

What Exogram Does

  • Exogram governs every action every agent in the crew proposes.
  • Each agent's tool calls pass through the same 8 deterministic policy rules.
  • Multi-agent coordination without governance is a multiplied risk. 5 agents making unvalidated tool calls = 5x the exposure.
  • 0.07ms per evaluation means governance adds negligible overhead even with many agents.

The Verdict

Use CrewAI for multi-agent coordination. Use Exogram because more agents means more risk, not less. Every agent needs an execution boundary.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Exogram govern individual agents within a crew?

Yes. Each agent's tool calls are independently evaluated. Agent A can be blocked while Agent B passes — per-action governance, not per-agent.

Does multi-agent coordination replace governance?

No. Agent coordination decides who does what. Governance decides whether each action is allowed. Coordination without governance is organized chaos with write access.
