OpenSSA: Small Specialist Agents for Problem-Solving

OpenSSA is an agentic AI framework for solving complex problems in real-world industry domains, overcoming the limitations of LLMs and RAG in such settings.

Level-2 Intelligence with Planning, Reasoning, domain-specific Knowledge and diverse Informational Resources

OpenSSA agents, built with powerful Hierarchical Task Planning (HTP) and Observe-Orient-Decide-Act Reasoning (OODAR), go far beyond the Level-1 pattern-matching intelligence performed by LLMs and RAG and achieve superior outcomes in complex multi-faceted, multi-step tasks. See our comparative study.

OpenSSA agents can also be armed with domain-specific Knowledge, connected to diverse Informational Resources (files, databases, web sources, etc.), and/or be guided by specialized industry experts to maximize the accuracy and comprehensiveness in their planning, reasoning and deliberative/iterative problem-solving.

Open and Extensible Architecture

Committed to promoting and supporting open development in generative AI, OpenSSA would strive to integrate with a diverse array of LLM backends, especially open-source LLMs. If you would like certain LLMs to be supported, please suggest through a GitHub issue, or, even better, submit your PRs.

Additionally, OpenSSA's key Planning, Reasoning, Knowledge and Resource interfaces are designed with customizability and extensibility as first-class concerns, in order to enable developers to effectively solve problems in their specific industries and specialized domains.

Small and Resource-Efficient Agents for Practical Real-World Deployment

Specialized, Level-2 intelligence allows OpenSSA agents to work well in many applications using significantly smaller component models, thereby greatly economizing computing resources.
