Cognee is an open-source AI memory platform that gives agents persistent long-term memory across sessions via a self-hosted knowledge graph engine. It is written in Python, uses uv for tooling, ships Docker support, and is Apache-2.0 licensed.

Reach for it when your agents need to retain and recall knowledge between sessions instead of starting from a blank context each time.

Use it to

  • Add persistent long-term memory to AI agents
  • Self-host a knowledge graph memory engine
  • Build graph-RAG style retrieval over agent knowledge
  • Manage agent context across sessions
  • Contribute to an open-source agent memory project
