LangChain is a software tool that makes it easier to use Large language model (LLMs) in different applications. It helps connect language models to tasks like reading and summarizing documents, creating chatbots, and analyzing code.[2]

LangChain started in October 2022 as an open-source project by Harrison Chase. It quickly became popular, with many contributors and online discussions. In 2023, the project raised over $30 million in funding. Later that year, it introduced LangChain Expression Language (LCEL) for defining actions and LangServe for hosting LCEL code as an API.[3][4]
