Where do you process your data? Do you have a Europe region? Are you GDPR compliant? This is my main concern with most AI providers. They are based in the US, with unclear GDPR compliancy, making most of them a non-starter for me.

Thanks for your question! Currently, we process data in the US and are not yet fully GDPR-compliant, but we're actively working on it. We also plan to offer a Europe-based data processing option soon. Your feedback on this is welcome!

This is an impressive innovation! Mem0 directly addresses a big problem that many of us have had with present large language models. It seems to me that the addition of a stateful memory layer potentially allows for LLMs that are not only more intelligent but also more efficient and user-friendly, because they can be tailored to individual users. And your design for an open-source, hybrid memory system also seems like a big step forward for the developer community both for the inventiveness of the system itself and for the potential it has for serving as a model for whatever comes next after LLMs.

Looks interesting but curious to know how is it different from using traditional databases or vector databases? Is that the graph element?

Thanks for your question! Vector databases are typically used for storing embeddings and are great for tasks like similarity search. However, they are generally read-only and don't natively support the concept of time or state transitions. Let's take an example of tracking state of a tasks from your todo list in a vector database: You might store the task's states like: Task 1 in backlog Task 1 in progress Task 1 in…

Earlier quoted context omitted.

There was even more before. Some has been removed completely.

If you turn on 'showdead' in your profile you can see all killed comments. (This is in the FAQ: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html .) There's only one level of removal beyond that ("[deleted]") but we never do that as moderators. "[deleted]" always means either that the author deleted the post themselves or asked us to do it for them.

Thanks. I have it on but I had the window open for a while and went into the profile of one which then longer had any comments so I guess they removed it themselves.

Congrats on the launch. Adding a memory layer to LLMs is a real painpoint. I've been experimenting with mem0 and it solves a real problem that I failed to solve myself, and we're going to use it in production. One question that I've heard a few times now: will you support the open source version as a first class citizen for the long term? A lot of open source projects with a paid version follow a similar strategy. Th…

Looks nice. Would the open-source version work from within an Electron app used for local LLM chats? I.e. can I run the memory management, retrieval, and database locally in javascript?

I believe the answer is "no, you can only run the memory management code in Python, the javascript code is only a client SDK for interacting with the managed solution". In which case, no worries, still looks awesome!
