description: Understanding and utilizing crews in the crewAI framework.

## What is a Crew?
!!! note "Definition of a Crew"
A crew in crewAI represents a collaborative group of agents working together to achieve a set of tasks. Each crew defines the strategy for task execution, agent collaboration, and the overall workflow.
## Crew Attributes
| Attribute | Description |
| :------------------- | :----------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Tasks** | A list of tasks assigned to the crew. |
| **Agents** | A list of agents that are part of the crew. |
| **Process** | The process flow (e.g., sequential, hierarchical) the crew follows. |
| **Verbose** | The verbosity level for logging during execution. |
| **Manager LLM** | The language model used by the manager agent in a hierarchical process. |
| **Config** | Configuration settings for the crew. |
| **Max RPM** | Maximum requests per minute the crew adheres to during execution. |
| **Language** | Language setting for the crew's operation. |
!!! note "Crew Max RPM"
The `max_rpm` attribute sets the maximum number of requests per minute the crew can perform to avoid rate limits and will override individual agents `max_rpm` settings if you set it.
## Creating a Crew
!!! note "Crew Composition"
When assembling a crew, you combine agents with complementary roles and tools, assign tasks, and select a process that dictates their execution order and interaction.
### Example: Assembling a Crew
```python
from crewai import Crew, Agent, Task, Process
from langchain_community.tools import DuckDuckGoSearchRun
# Define agents with specific roles and tools
researcher = Agent(
role='Senior Research Analyst',
goal='Discover innovative AI technologies',
tools=[DuckDuckGoSearchRun()]
)
writer = Agent(
role='Content Writer',
goal='Write engaging articles on AI discoveries'
)
# Create tasks for the agents
research_task = Task(description='Identify breakthrough AI technologies', agent=researcher)
write_article_task = Task(description='Draft an article on the latest AI technologies', agent=writer)
# Assemble the crew with a sequential process
my_crew = Crew(
agents=[researcher, writer],
tasks=[research_task, write_article_task],
process=Process.sequential,
verbose=True
)
```
## Crew Execution Process
- **Sequential Process**: Tasks are executed one after another, allowing for a linear flow of work.
- **Hierarchical Process**: A manager agent coordinates the crew, delegating tasks and validating outcomes before proceeding.
### Kicking Off a Crew
Once your crew is assembled, initiate the workflow with the `kickoff()` method. This starts the execution process according to the defined process flow.
```python
# Start the crew's task execution
result = my_crew.kickoff()
print(result)
```
