Action & orchestration
Which AI agent platforms can sequence, branch and retry multi step work?
Of the 946 vendors in the index, 659 publish full evidence of orchestration: sequencing steps, branching on conditions, retrying failures, routing work and combining deterministic nodes with autonomous agent steps. A further 217 document partial coverage and 70 document none.
Every vendor in the index is assessed against the same 14 point taxonomy from public documentation, and no vendor pays for placement. Counts on this page were measured across all 946 public vendors on September 30, 2026.
How the 946 vendors split
No public evidence means the reviewed sources did not document the capability. On this index that is a statement about the evidence, not proof that the capability is absent. See methodology.
What counts as full coverage
Full coverage means the platform itself carries the control flow, with documented branching, retries or routing across multiple steps that the buyer can see or configure. Partial typically means linear chains with no error path, orchestration that exists only inside a single packaged use case, or a fixed pipeline the vendor runs end to end with no orchestration surface exposed. A framework that expects you to write the loop in your own code is graded on what it documents, not on what you could build with it.
How to read these numbers
The lane split is the finding. All but one multi agent platform in the index documents full orchestration, which is close to a definition of the category, while agent infrastructure sits at 49 percent, the lowest rate of any lane on this axis. That gap is not a quality judgment: infrastructure vendors ship runtimes, gateways and observability, and deliberately leave the control flow to your application. If you are buying a framework and expecting the vendor to own retries and branching, this is the axis where that assumption breaks.

Questions buyers ask
Is orchestration the same as multi agent coordination?
No. This axis covers control flow inside one agent workflow. Coordinating several specialized agents is a category rather than an axis, and the multi agent platform lane is where those vendors are ranked.
Why do some frameworks score partial?
Because they document primitives rather than an orchestrator. Retries and branching that you implement yourself in application code are real engineering, but they are not vendor documented coverage.
What should I test in a trial?
Failure behavior. Ask what happens when step four times out: whether the run resumes, restarts, escalates or silently ends is the difference between a demo and a production workflow.
