HippocampAI is a production-ready, enterprise-grade memory engine that transforms how AI systems remember, reason, and learn from interactions. It provides persistent, intelligent memory capabilities that enable AI agents to maintain context across sessions, understand user preferences, detect behavioral patterns, and deliver truly personalized experiences.

The name "HippocampAI" draws inspiration from the hippocampus - the brain region responsible for memory formation and retrieval - reflecting our mission to give AI systems human-like memory capabilities.

Current Release: v0.5.0 — Intelligent memory features: knowledge graph, graph-aware retrieval, feedback loops, triggers, procedural memory, and embedding migration.

HippocampAI is organized into two main components for flexibility:

# Core library only (lightweight)
from hippocampai.core import MemoryClient, Memory, Config

# SaaS platform features
from hippocampai.platform import run_api_server, AutomationController

# Or use the main package (includes everything, backward compatible)
from hippocampai import MemoryClient

# Core library (lightweight - 10 dependencies)
pip install hippocampai

# With SaaS features (API, auth, background tasks)
pip install "hippocampai[saas]"

# With specific LLM providers
pip install "hippocampai[openai]"     # OpenAI support
pip install "hippocampai[anthropic]"  # Anthropic Claude
pip install "hippocampai[groq]"       # Groq support

# Everything (development, all features)
pip install "hippocampai[all,dev]"

from hippocampai import MemoryClient

# Initialize client
client = MemoryClient()

# Store a memory
memory = client.remember(
    "I prefer oat milk in my coffee and work remotely on Tuesdays",
    user_id="alice",
    type="preference"
)

# Recall memories
results = client.recall("work preferences", user_id="alice")
print(f"Found: {results[0].memory.text}")

That's it! You now have intelligent memory for your AI application.

• Built-in Intelligence: Pattern detection, insights, behavioral analysis
• Memory Types: Facts, preferences, goals, habits, events (not just vectors)
• Temporal Reasoning: Native time-based queries and narratives

• 5-100x Faster: Redis caching, optimized retrieval
• Deployment Flexibility: Local, self-hosted, or SaaS
• Full Control: Complete source access and customization

• Ready in Minutes: pip install hippocampai
• 102+ Methods: Complete API covering all use cases
• Production-Tested: Battle-tested in real applications
