## Key Features

### Agents with Memory
Agents remember past conversations and learn from interactions:
```python
agent = Agent(
    model=OpenAIChat(id="gpt-4o"),
    storage=PgAgentStorage(table_name="agents", db_url=db_url),
    add_history_to_messages=True,
)
```

### Knowledge Bases
Add domain knowledge from PDFs, websites, databases, or custom sources:
```python
knowledge = PDFKnowledgeBase(path="docs/", vector_db=PgVector(table="docs"))
agent = Agent(knowledge=knowledge)
```

### 50+ Built-in Tools
Web search, file I/O, SQL queries, API calls, email, Slack, GitHub, and more.

### Agent Teams
Compose specialized agents into teams with a coordinator:
```python
team = Agent(team=[researcher, writer, editor], instructions="...")
```

### Structured Output
Get typed responses using Pydantic models — not free text.

### Monitoring Dashboard
Production dashboard at [phidata.app](https://phidata.app) for logs, metrics, and debugging.
