ADK
ADK (Agent Development Kit) is an AI agent development toolkit released by Google, designed to help developers build, orchestrate, and deploy AI agent applications. It provides a programming framework for defining agent behavior, managing tool calls, and coordinating multi-agent collaboration, with support for integration with the Google ecosystem and mainstream large language models. It belongs to the same category of AI agent development infrastructure as the Anthropic Agent SDK and OpenAI Agents SDK.

Real cost data shows that building the Terraform course with Strands cost $18.36, while ADK cost only $3.35 (excluding upfront research and planning).
ADK (Agent Development Kit) has dedicated designs for hierarchical and supervisor patterns.
The ice cream delivery demo integrates Google's ADK (Agent Development Kit, a solution for orchestrating multi-agents) with Temporal, where ADK coordinates agent activities, and Temporal tracks and manages system state while providing a visual UI to display event history.
In Demo 2, when the system returned a 500 error, the SRE-like Agent correctly completed incident triage and recommended restoring traffic to the previously healthy version (rollback).
The blogger replicated the ADK sample Agent with a weather tool in fewer than 25 lines of code, and running npm run dev automatically generates a conversational UI
Genkit is Google's AI application development framework for JavaScript/TypeScript developers, with built-in flow tracing and Eval integration; ADK is Google's Agent-building toolkit for the Python ecosystem, with built-in Eval functionality.
Google's ADK (Agent Development Kit) has also added support for MCP.
