Memory layer for coding agents

Your agent keeps re-suggesting what the team rejected in March. Memseek remembers what's true now.

One layer between your records and the model. Current, dated, source-linked context — not similar-looking chunks. Your data stays where it is.

why it isn't RAG

Retrieval finds what looks similar.
Memory knows what's true now.

Reliable memory is about context selection, not context volume. That's the part a vector search was never built to do.

plain RAG vector search

  • Returns chunks that look similar — no idea which is current.
  • Contradictions surface side by side; the model guesses.
  • Dumps the whole history into the prompt to be safe.
  • Re-derives a different answer on every call.
  • Sources and dates fall off along the way.

memseek context harness

  • Selects the few records that matter for this question.
  • Knows what changed and what's superseded — serves the current truth.
  • Resolves conflicts across sources into one coherent picture.
  • Compact context — ~30× fewer tokens than the full history.
  • Every item stays dated and linked to its source.
what's in the kit

One layer. The jobs a vector store can't do.

Memseek is a composable harness, not a single trick. The same layer handles direct recall, evolving profiles, temporal reasoning, and multi-document retrieval.

recall

Find the needle

Surface the right record in a long, messy history — where the answer is one line buried under thousands.

temporal

Know what changed

Track what was superseded and what still holds, so the agent gets the latest valid fact — not last year's decision.

conflict

Resolve disagreements

When two sources say different things, reconcile to the current truth instead of handing the model a contradiction.

cross-source

Connect the evidence

Link related facts across repos, docs, chats, and apps into one picture — multi-hop, not single-shot.

provenance

Keep the receipts

Every piece of served context stays attached to a dated, verbatim source you can open and verify.

outputs

Any shape you need

Return raw context, a direct answer, an update-ready profile, or a skill digest — from the same layer.

watch the hard parts work

The intelligence, not the plumbing.

Distilling patterns, catching contradictions, reasoning across time, and improving a skill from real feedback are the parts teams get wrong. Here's each one, live.

digest

Distills patterns into insight

Reads many small signals and writes one higher-level, cited takeaway.

digest · cites 4 signals
"Prefers small, reviewed PRs over big drops."
Split a 900-line PR on request
Asked for smaller commits twice
Reverted a large refactor
Praised an incremental migration
conflict

Catches beliefs that collide

When new evidence contradicts the old, it's flagged — and the current, cited fact wins.

Ask what was true last quarter — the history is preserved, not overwritten.

Improves the skill from feedback

Turns what real work taught into a cited draft — and leaves the decision to ship it with you.

Better context. A fraction of the tokens.

These test exactly the failures agents hit today: finding the right thing in a long history, handling updates and contradictions, and connecting evidence across sources.

Living memory for coding agents.

Keep an accurate, evolving understanding of how a team actually builds — so the agent stops re-suggesting what was already rejected.

buy vs. build

The same reason you don't hand-roll your own Postgres.

A real context layer is substantial engineering most teams don't solve well. The question isn't whether you could build it — it's whether that's the best use of your team.

Value on day one

Better context out of the box, faster than an internal build, over your existing storage — no months of research and evaluation.

It compounds

The learning loop tunes ranking, routing, and temporal rules to your data — until replacing it means rebuilding how your app reads its own history.

You can see it working

Built-in evaluation shows exactly what context was served and whether it improved the outcome. No black box.

straight answers

The questions engineers actually ask.

Isn't this just RAG?+
No. RAG retrieves text that looks similar. Memseek selects the right, current context, resolves contradictions, keeps every source and date, and serves ~30× fewer tokens. On public benchmarks it beats standard dense retrieval by +7.5 to +10.8 points — and it does it without indexing-time LLM calls.
Is it a database? Do I move my data into it?+
No, and no. Your data stays exactly where it is. Memseek builds a lightweight access structure over your existing sources — databases, vector stores, repos, chat logs, docs, business apps — and decides what your agent should see.
Does it need an expensive frontier model?+
No. The results above are on inexpensive, self-hostable models, with no indexing-time LLM calls. Performance and low cost — not one at the expense of the other.
What do I actually get back?+
Whatever shape your app consumes: raw context, a direct answer, an update-ready profile, or a skill digest — all from the same query-time layer.
Can I run it privately / on my own infra?+
Yes. Private and local deployment is a first-class path for teams where data control, latency, or infrastructure constraints matter.
How do I know it's actually helping?+
Evaluation is built in: it shows what context was served for every request and whether it improved the outcome, so you can prove lift on correction rate and task success on your own data.

Memseek turns your records into the memory your agent should use now.

Point it at the sources you already have and serve better context from the first integration. Bring your own model — cheap and self-hostable is the point.
