About LangChain
LangChain is a framework for building agents and LLM-powered applications. It helps you chain together interoperable components and third-party integrations to simplify AI application development — all while future-proofing decisions as the underlying technology evolves. model = init_chat_model("openai:gpt-5.5") result = model.invoke("Hello, world!") ``` If you're looking for more advanced customization or agent orchestration, check out LangGraph, our framework for building controllable agent workflows.
