Hi HN, I’m Guohao Li, founder of CAMEL-AI.org and Eigent.AI.

Eigent is built on top of the CAMEL-AI framework and designed specifically for developers, researchers, and teams who want increased control, privacy, and flexibility in their AI operations.

It says "Ranked Top 1 on GAIA Benchmark", but I don't see it anywhere on https://huggingface.co/spaces/gaia-benchmark/leaderboard , what am I missing?

EDIT: Also, almost every positive comment here is by a user with 1 karma - what's up with this?

We support models like Gemini 2.5 pro, GPT-4.1 and Claude-3.7 and so on. You can also use local models served by Ollama, vLLM or SGLang. The minimum requirement is a model that supports tool calling.

We built on top of our previous project OWL which ranked top 1 on GAIA: https://github.com/camel-ai/owl in March. For the Eigent update, we haven't got to benchmark it on GAIA yet. Will do it soon in the up coming weeks. Sorry for the confusion.

No other reasoning model other than Gemini-2.5 Pro? The pricing tiers on the website list only 3 models, one being Gemini and other 2 being GPT-4 artifacts, Perhaps, one can highlight there that one can bring their own API key?, if thats the case. Also, does it support Clade-Opus 4?

So what makes it any different compared to Manus or Crewai?

Compared to Manus, Eigent is a local-first multi-agent systems. It can do things like operating local files or OS that Manus cannot. It can also execute tasks in parallel. Manus can only do tasks linearly as far as I know. As for crewai, crewai is a framework but we use camel framework instead.
