The AGO C.I was a German reconnaissance biplane of World War I of pod-and-boom configuration. The crew and pusher powerplant shared a central nacelle, and the twin booms carried the tail and the four-wheeled landing gear. The observer sat at the nose and was armed with a machine-gun.
A single example was fitted with floats for coastal patrol duties for the German Navy (designation C.I-W).
