Coze Studio is an all-in-one AI agent development platform that's open-sourced by ByteDance, providing everything needed from development to deployment of AI agents.
Coze Studio originates from ByteDance's internal "Coze" development platform that has served tens of thousands of enterprises and millions of developers. This isn't an experimental toy – it's a battle-tested, enterprise-grade tool made freely available.
The backend is written in Go (Golang) for high performance and concurrency, while the frontend is built with React + TypeScript for a smooth, modern UI. The system follows Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles, making it highly scalable and maintainable.
Coze Studio combines visual no-code tools with a powerful underlying architecture to simplify AI development like never before. Build complex AI behaviors without heavy coding – just connect the blocks in the order you need.
Comprehensive suite of features covering all aspects of AI agent creation, from visual workflow design to enterprise deployment.
Design agent logic by dragging and dropping node-based components. Each node represents a functional block, making complex AI behaviors easy to build without heavy coding.
Integrate any third-party API or service as a plugin. Write custom plugins following provided guidelines to extend agent capabilities beyond the base LLM.
Built-in RAG capability with vector indexing and retrieval. Upload documents and attach them to agents for factual, context-rich answers.
Model-agnostic platform supporting OpenAI, Claude, local LLMs, and custom endpoints. Switch models with minimal friction for optimal performance.
Build full applications around your agents and publish them directly. Get a live chatbot application with a web-accessible URL in one click.
REST OpenAPI and JavaScript Chat SDK for seamless integration into existing applications, mobile apps, and enterprise workflows.
Released under permissive Apache 2.0 license. Use freely in commercial projects, modify, self-host, and keep modifications private.
Battle-tested at ByteDance scale. Go microservices architecture optimized for production workloads and high concurrency.
Complete ecosystem covering development, testing, deployment, and monitoring. No need to stitch together different systems.

Everything you need to know about getting started with Coze Studio AI agent development.
Coze Studio is an open-source AI agent development platform by ByteDance that provides a complete end-to-end solution. Unlike other platforms, it combines visual workflow design, enterprise-grade architecture, and battle-tested scalability in one comprehensive package.
Coze Studio can be set up in under 30 minutes. With Docker installed, simply clone the repository, copy the environment file, and run docker compose. The platform includes everything needed for development in a self-contained environment.
Coze Studio is designed for both no-code users and developers. You can build basic agents using the visual workflow editor without coding, while developers can extend functionality through custom plugins and access to the full source code.
Coze Studio is model-agnostic and supports OpenAI GPT models, Claude, ByteDance's Volcengine Ark, local LLMs, and any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. You can easily switch between models through configuration files.
Yes, Coze Studio is enterprise-ready with Go microservices architecture, domain-driven design, and proven scalability at ByteDance scale. It supports self-hosting, custom plugins, and integration with enterprise systems.
Use the REST OpenAPI or JavaScript Chat SDK to integrate agents into your applications. The platform provides simple APIs for creating conversations, sending inputs, and receiving responses from your deployed agents.
You can create plugins for any external API or service - database lookups, web searches, ML models, IoT devices, or business systems. The open plugin interface provides guidelines and examples for custom plugin development.
Upload documents (PDFs, Word, etc.) through the UI, and Coze Studio automatically processes them with vector indexing. Your agents can then retrieve relevant information using built-in RAG capabilities for factual, context-rich responses.
Coze Studio is released under the permissive Apache 2.0 license, allowing free commercial use, modification, self-hosting, and private modifications without additional restrictions or fees.
