Our take
Pick Dify if product and applied-AI teams who want a visual RAG/agent studio and may later self-host. Pick MindStudio if ops and content teams who will pay Individual so more than Free’s one agent and 1,000 runs can ship unlimited agents. Skip Dify if someone who only wants ChatGPT, or an engineer who prefers a code-first graph (LangChain) with no studio.
