RAG Frameworks in 2026: LangChain, LangGraph vs LlamaIndex

We benchmarked 5 RAG frameworks: LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, Haystack, and DSPy, by building the same agentic RAG workflow with standardized components: identical models (GPT-4.1-mini), embeddings (BGE-small), retriever (Qdrant), and tools (Tavily web search). This isolates each framework’s true overhead and token efficiency.
