Open-source Python library giving you one unified Chat Completions API plus an Agents API across all major LLM providers.

Unified Chat Completions API: One OpenAI-style interface for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral, Hugging Face, AWS, Cohere, Ollama, OpenRouter, Requesty and more, so switching providers is a one-string change.
Provider-Agnostic Parameters: Standardizes temperature, max_tokens, tools, and other core parameters plus request/response shapes across providers.
Streaming And Async: `stream=True` yields OpenAI-shaped chunks from any supporting provider, and an `acreate` async variant iterates with `async for`.
Agents API: Register real Python functions as tools and run multi-turn tool-use loops on top of the same unified chat client.
Ready-Made Toolkits: Ship-with-the-library toolkits for files, git, and shell so agents can act on the local environment without custom glue.
MCP Server Support: Attach any Model Context Protocol server as a toolkit so agents can use MCP-defined tools alongside native Python functions.
Tool Policies: Govern which tools an agent may call and under what constraints, keeping the agent loop safe and auditable.
Model Router String: `<provider>:<model-name>` naming routes each call to the right SDK with the right parameters, keeping application code portable.

Multi-Provider Prototyping: Compare the same prompt across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Ollama by changing only the model string in one place.
Local + Cloud Hybrid: Run Ollama for private work and cloud providers for heavier tasks through the exact same client and code path.
Building Agentic Apps: Wire domain Python functions in as tools and let aisuite handle the multi-turn tool-calling loop across whichever LLM you choose.
MCP Integration: Point an aisuite agent at an existing MCP server (filesystem, GitHub, Slack, etc.) and expose those tools to any supported model.
Vendor-Portable Products: Ship a product that lets end users choose their LLM provider without maintaining a separate SDK integration for each one.

Audits whether AI crawlers and assistants can actually read your website, then tracks how often they mention your brand.

AI Readiness Audit: Scores a public URL across 106 checks in six categories — crawlability, structured data, entity clarity, content structure, answerability and trust signals — for a readiness score out of 100.
Served-vs-Rendered Comparison: Measures how much of the browser-rendered page survives a fetch-only request, flagging JavaScript-dependent content that non-rendering AI crawlers never see.
AI Crawler Access Checks: Reports robots.txt, canonicals, redirects and status codes specifically for AI crawlers such as OAI-SearchBot, not just traditional search bots.
UX Review with Developer Brief: Runs a separate usability pass with visual layout analysis on paid plans and produces a copyable brief a developer can work straight from.
Saved Action Plans: Keeps an audit as a private baseline, lets you rank findings by priority, and records implementation progress against it.
Generated Fixes and Verification: Premium plans generate implementation guidance for a selected finding and verify the change against a fresh audit rather than trusting a checkbox.
AI Answer Snapshots: Asks the same five core questions weekly with three samples each, deciding by majority whether the brand is named, and charts the trend against tracked competitors.
Programmable Surface: A public REST API, CLI and MCP server let audits run inside CI/CD pipelines or be called directly by AI agents.

AI Search Readiness: Find out why an AI assistant summarizes a competitor's page instead of yours and fix the specific access or rendering issue behind it.
Pre-Launch QA: Audit a new marketing site before launch to catch blocked crawlers, missing markup and unreadable server-rendered content.
CI/CD Regression Guards: Call the REST API or CLI on every deploy so a rendering change that hides content from crawlers fails the build.
Brand Monitoring: Track weekly whether AI assistants name your brand in answers to the questions your buyers actually ask.
Agency Reporting: Produce white-label PDF audits and score comparisons for client sites on the Partner plan.
Content Restructuring: Use heading/body agreement and attribution checks to rewrite pages into retrievable, quotable sections.
