A BDI agent is a particular type of rational software agent, extended with some mental attitudes : Beliefs, Desires and Intentions (BDI).

The BDI agent's model derives from the BDI logic. The model has some philosophical basis in the Belief-Desire-Intention theory of human practical reasoning, expounded by Bratman.
