What LangGraph means
LangGraph models an agent as a graph: nodes do work, edges decide what happens next, and state persists across the run so it can pause, resume, or wait for a person. It targets the control and reliability problems that appear once an agent runs for many steps.

How this is counted
Every day we read the open roles on the public job boards of the New York AI companies in our coverage — the NYC AI 100 and the AI in NYC Show roster. This term is matched against each role’s description after removing the text a company repeats across its postings, so an “About us” paragraph cannot tag every role the company has open. A vendor’s own postings never count toward its own name.
The figure means named in a job posting. It does not mean used in production, and a “nice to have” counts the same as a requirement. Companies are the headline number because posting counts are dominated by whichever few employers are hiring hardest this month.
Full method, including the pay rules, is on the glossary index; the underlying series is the NYC AI Hiring Index.
