arent there a bunch of products just like this one?

It's a hot space right now! No one yet knows how this is going to shape up. We've realized (through tons of talking to users) that UX is a criminally underrated aspect of building this system effectively. The algorithms, infrastructure, performance, security have to be airtight, that much is true. But the reason that there is no winner yet in this space (even those these types of companies have been around for years)…

Which of the competitors do you think have a unique take, or are doing a good job?

Interesting product. I know others building in this space. How are things going with existing customers? And how are you measuring deltas vs standard agentic processes? Are you using RAG under the hood?

Are there others in this space doing a good job? Curious about what else is tackling this.

Curious about the focus on subject-predicate-object records, are the predicates you are interested in configured somewhere, or is this automated (decides what are important predicates).

the predicates are determined by Hyper. this lets hyper shape a "custom" memory system for every organization based on the shape of information coming in.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

As a person with a career in heavily regulated space who would very much like to try a product like this so we stop spending time on it in-house: Hyper doesn't copy your Gmail inbox or Notion workspace onto our servers. We extract the meaningful signal — decisions, insights, key facts and context — and discard the rest. This sentence does you no good, it just says we exfiltrate what matters . Your data is hosted on m…

Appreciate the feedback. We are not currently a good fit for highly-regulated industries like gov't or medical, though we are working to meet those requirements. We currently run Hyper on our (cloud) infra because it's far and away the lowest-friction option for teams that are comfortable with it. Understand that it's not for everyone, and our security and compliance posturing will mature with time and iteration (we…

What you just wrote is better than what the FAQ says:

"If your organization has high security requirements, please talk to us."

Which is why I took time to talk to you. You should say, in the FAQ, you are today a best fit for open/transparent teams without information boundaries, but would like to learn more about those needs from firms both wanting a company brain and required to partition it.

Just to be clear: gov and medical are the same needs as non-regulated industries, meaning, every enterprise needs information boundaries. It's just that gov and med have extra regulators checking them. Thinking those are the only two mean you're overlooking a ton of firms that have the need as well. (Who should see comp? Who should see prospect deal strategy? Who should see cap tables? Etc.)

> our security and compliance posturing will mature with time and iteration

"security posture" (as in stance) not "security posturing" (as in pretending)

That's an idea to combine RDF and LLM. It could probably be combined with Wikidata too.

I live in Japan, and here, the National Diet Library and the Statistics Bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications are working on RDF. Are other countries working on it too?
