# Dify

Dify is a platform for building, testing and deploying AI agents, workflows and knowledge pipelines on one visual canvas. Teams can publish the same logic as a hosted app, an API endpoint, an embed or an MCP-compatible tool. It can run on Dify Cloud, in a customer's VPC, or self-hosted with Docker or Kubernetes.
