🎯 Building Your Stack
A typical production agent stack includes:
Core Infrastructure
- • Framework (LangChain/AutoGen)
- • Vector DB (Pinecone/Weaviate)
- • Model provider (OpenAI/Anthropic)
Production Essentials
- • Observability (LangSmith)
- • Deployment (Modal/Railway)
- • Prompt management (PromptLayer)
💰 Cost Reality Check
Free Tier:
Most tools offer generous free tiers (Pinecone, Weaviate, LangSmith) perfect for development
Scale Costs:
Production costs = Model API calls + Vector DB storage + Observability. Budget $100-500/month for small-medium apps
Optimize:
Cache responses, batch requests, use smaller models when possible, monitor with observability tools
