Hey HN! We're Taranjeet and Deshraj, the founders of Mem0 (https://mem0.ai). Mem0 adds a stateful memory layer to AI applications, allowing them to remember user interactions, preferences, and context over time. This enables AI apps to deliver increasingly personalized and intelligent experiences that evolve with every interaction. There’s a demo video at https://youtu.be/VtRuBCTZL1o and a playground to try out at https://app.mem0.ai/playground. You'll need to sign up to use the playground – this helps ensure responses are more tailored to you by…

Hey HN! I built a proof-of-concept for AI memory using Git instead of vector databases. The insight: Git already solved versioned document management. Why are we building complex vector stores when we could just use markdown files with Git's built-in diff/blame/history? How it works: Memories stored as markdown files in a Git repo Each conversation = one commit git diff shows how understanding evolves over time BM25 for search (no embeddings needed) LLMs generate search queries from conversation context Example: Ask "how has my project evolved?" and it uses git diff to show actual…

Hi HN, We’ve been building [memU](https://github.com/NevaMind-AI/memU), an open-source memory framework for AI agents that supports both classic RAG and LLM-based direct file reading. RAG has become the default in LLM systems, but many of its failures don’t come from the model — they come from the retrieval assumptions. Embedding-based retrieval is fundamentally an approximation over semantic similarity. It works well for fuzzy recall, but it often breaks when relevance ≠ correctness, which is common in real systems. From a retrieval perspective, RAG struggles with: -…

Most RAG setups fail because they treat memory like a static filing cabinet. When every transient bug fix or abandoned rule is stored forever, the context window eventually chokes on noise, spiking token costs and degrading the agent's reasoning. This implementation experiments with a biological approach by using the Ebbinghaus forgetting curve to manage context as a living substrate. Memories are assigned a "strength" score where each recall reinforces the data and flattens its decay curve (spaced repetition), while unused data eventually hits a threshold and is pruned. To solve the…

Hi HN, We’ve been building memU(https://github.com/NevaMind-AI/memU), an open-source, general-purpose memory framework for AI agents. It supports dual-mode retrieval: classic RAG and LLM-based direct file reading. Most multimodal memory systems either embed everything into vectors or treat non-text data as attachments. These work, but at scale it becomes hard to explain why certain context was retrieved and what evidence it relies on. memU takes a different approach: since models reason in language, multimodal memory should converge into structured, queryable text, while…

Vector databases store memories. They don't manage them. After 10k memories, recall quality degrades because there's no consolidation, no forgetting, no conflict resolution. Your AI agent just gets noisier. YantrikDB is a cognitive memory engine — embed it, run it as a server, or connect via MCP. It thinks about what it stores: consolidation collapses duplicate memories, contradiction detection flags incompatible facts, temporal decay with configurable half-life lets unimportant memories fade like human memory does. Single Rust binary. HTTP + binary wire protocol. 2-voter + 1-witness HA…

An agent that remembers across sessions can keep its memory as curated markdown files, as an auto-mined structured store, or as trained experience.
