## What LangGraph is

LangGraph is part of LangChain’s platform for teams that build agents. It supports the work of building, testing, deploying, monitoring, iterating on and governing those agents.

Teams can build agents with or without code, then use step-by-step tracing to debug runs. LangGraph deploys agents on infrastructure designed for long-running tasks and persistent state. It monitors production runs for quality, cost, latency, errors and tool behaviour, and can require human approval for sensitive agent actions.
