The honest brief
mem0
Fastest path to agent memory — extracts distilled facts with a tiny token footprint and the biggest community.
- Quick to adopt, broad framework integrations
- Stores distilled facts, small footprint
- Vector + graph + key-value storage
- Open-source with usable free tier
- Weaker on temporal/state-change queries
- LLM call on every write adds latency
- Test deletion/conflict handling for regulated use
- More library than full memory server
Memobase
Models memory as a structured user profile plus timestamped event timeline — tops LOCOMO temporal-reasoning (~85%).
- Distills chats, not raw embeddings
- Strong temporal-reasoning benchmark
- Low-latency on FastAPI/Postgres/Redis
- Python/Node/Go SDKs + MCP server
- Smaller community than mem0/Zep
- Profile schema needs upfront design
- Less production-server tooling than Zep
- Newer, less battle-tested
