Both have workflows, agents, a prompt studio, and a template library. The split is clear: Dify excels at RAG pipelines and app publishing. Agentivity excels at multi-agent team orchestration — Group Chat, Concurrent, and hierarchical agent teams.

Both tools overlap on workflows, agents, and prompts. Here's where they go in different directions.
Agentivity's unique layer: compose agents into teams and choose how they collaborate. Sequential — classic hand-off chain. Group Chat — agents reason and debate together. Concurrent — agents run in parallel, a synthesiser merges results. Dify has no equivalent.
In Agentivity, agents have reporting relationships — a Writer reports to an Editor, a Researcher feeds an Analyst. Each agent can hold its own memory scope. Dify's agents are peers in a workflow, with no concept of team hierarchy.
Dify's native knowledge base is excellent — upload documents, chunk them, embed them, and query with hybrid search. Agentivity can call external retrieval tools but doesn't ship a native vector store. If RAG is core to your product, Dify is the better choice.
Dify lets you ship your agent as an embeddable chatbot widget, a REST API, or a shareable link. Agentivity is built to run teams internally — not to publish end-user apps. If you're building a customer-facing product, Dify has a head start.
These tools are complementary more than competitive. Some teams use Dify to build the RAG knowledge layer and Agentivity to orchestrate the agents that query it. The right choice depends on whether your core need is app publishing (Dify) or agent team orchestration (Agentivity).
