Great embedded/object-store vector layer. Pair with Mem0/Zep only if you need higher-level memory APIs.

Strengths

  • · Embedded + cloud flexibility

  • · Younger managed story vs Pinecone

Pricing notes

As of 2026-09-14: Embedded + cloud vector DB on Lance format; excellent local/OSS DX and object-storage-friendly indexing. Cloud usage-based; OSS free. Popular as RAG/memory backend (e.g. with Cognee); not a hosted 'agent memory' product itself.
