What is Flowise used for?
Building LLM applications visually: AI chatbots, document Q&A, RAG pipelines and autonomous agents, by connecting nodes on a canvas.
How is Flowise different from LangChain?
LangChain is a library you use in code. Flowise is a visual interface built on LangChain concepts, which makes prototyping a chatbot or RAG pipeline faster.
Which LLM providers can I use?
OpenAI, Anthropic, Hugging Face, Cohere, Google Vertex AI, Azure OpenAI, Ollama for local models, and others. You bring your own API keys.
Do I need to code?
Not for most use cases. Chatbots, RAG pipelines and basic agents are drag-and-drop; custom code nodes are there if you need them.
Can end users chat with my flows?
Yes. Every flow has an API endpoint, and Flowise includes an embeddable chat widget for websites.
Which instance size should I choose?
t3a.medium is the recommended starting point on AWS.
How is SSL set up?
Automatically if your domain is hosted on Route 53. Otherwise SSH in and run sudo /root/certificate_generate_standalone.sh.
How do I upgrade?
Back up your flows and configuration, remove the old stack and launch the updated AMI from AWS Marketplace.
