**When to choose IHUI AI over Dify**: You need desktop/mini-program/extension clients, want to monetize Agents via marketplace, need enterprise SSO, or operate in Chinese market.

### 3.2 vs Coze

| Dimension | Coze | IHUI AI |
|---|---|---|
| Open source | No | Yes |
| Private deploy | No | Yes |
| Clients | Web + Douyin mini program | 6 clients |
| Agent marketplace | Yes (closed) | Yes (open, cross-platform) |
| Multi-model | Mostly ByteDance | All major + local |
| Customization | Limited | Full code access |

**When to choose IHUI AI over Coze**: Data privacy, self-hosting, code customization, cross-platform beyond ByteDance ecosystem.

### 3.3 vs FastGPT

| Dimension | FastGPT | IHUI AI |
|---|---|---|
| Primary focus | Knowledge base Q&A | Full AI OS |
| Agent marketplace | No | Yes |
| Workflow | Basic | Advanced |
| Clients | Web only | 6 clients |
| Commercial billing | No | Yes |

**When to choose IHUI AI over FastGPT**: You need more than just Q&A — Agent marketplace, multi-platform distribution, billing, team collaboration.

### 3.4 vs n8n

| Dimension | n8n | IHUI AI |
|---|---|---|
| Primary focus | Workflow automation | AI-first workflow |
| LLM nodes | Basic | Advanced (multi-model, RAG, Agent) |
| Agent marketplace | No | Yes |
| Clients | Web + self-host | 6 clients |
| Chinese support | Limited | Full |

**When to choose IHUI AI over n8n**: Your workflows are AI-heavy, you need Agent marketplace and multi-platform distribution.

### 3.5 vs Building from scratch

A team of 5 engineers would need ~12-18 months to build what IHUI AI provides out of the box: Agent builder, multi-model dispatch, RAG, MCP, workflow, 6 clients, credit system, team collaboration, marketplace. IHUI AI is open-source and self-hostable, so the cost comparison is straightforward.

### Q5: Is it open source?

A: Yes, Apache 2.0. The open-source core includes Agent builder, multi-model dispatch, RAG, MCP, workflow, and the 6 clients. Commercial extensions (enterprise SSO, advanced audit, custom SLA) are available separately.

### Q6: What models are supported?

A: OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Qwen (通义千问), DeepSeek, GLM (智谱), 文心一言 (ERNIE), Doubao (豆包), Kimi, Ollama (local), and any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. See Section 2.2 for the full list.

### Q7: What languages are supported in the UI?

A: Simplified Chinese (zh-CN), Traditional Chinese (zh-TW), English (en), Korean (ko), Japanese (ja). RAG and knowledge-base work best in Chinese and English.
