# Pick a template

> Start with the closest template to what you're building.

Agno gives you four templates: one foundational, three production.

| If you're...                                                   | Start with                                           |
| -------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| Building your own agent platform from a blank canvas           | [Agent Platform](/tutorials/agent-platform/overview) |
| Building an agent that can query Slack, GDrive, internal wikis | [Scout](/tutorials/scout/overview)                   |
| Building an agent for data analytics, BI, metrics              | [Dash](/tutorials/dash/overview)                     |
| Building a code companion to help maintain your codebase       | [Coda](/tutorials/coda/overview)                     |
| Looking for a kitchen-sink with every Agno feature             | [Demo OS](/demo-os/overview)                         |

## Start from a blank canvas

The Agent Platform template is the leanest foundation: AgentOS, Postgres, Docker for local, Railway for production, two reference agents, and Claude Code prompts that build and improve agents for you.

<CardGroup cols={1}>
  <Card title="Agent Platform" icon="layer-group" iconType="duotone" href="/tutorials/agent-platform/overview">
    The foundational template. Ship a new agent without writing code; recursively improve it from trace data.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Or start from a production template

Each of these gets you 90% of the way to a deployed product. The work that's left is wiring up your data, your knowledge, and your interfaces.

<CardGroup cols={3}>
  <Card title="Scout" icon="compass" iconType="duotone" href="/tutorials/scout/overview">
    Context agent over Slack, Drive, MCP, custom sources.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Dash" icon="chart-line" iconType="duotone" href="/tutorials/dash/overview">
    Self-learning data agent over a SaaS metrics dataset.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Coda" icon="code" iconType="duotone" href="/tutorials/coda/overview">
    Code companion in Slack with daily digest and issue triage.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## What every template comes with

* **Docker Compose** for local dev (`docker compose up -d --build`)
* **Railway scripts** for one-command deploy (`./scripts/railway/up.sh`)
* **JWT-based auth** for multi-user, multi-tenant deployment. Secure by default
* **Eval suite** for the agent's specific behaviors
