Introducing Cognee v1.0: a major breakthrough in agentic intelligence.
It is 145% better than Opus 4.8 and GPT 5.5 at long context memory retrieval.
Cognee allows a 100 BILLION token context window 100,000x more than Claude. It's:
- 6.9x cheaper than GPT 5.5 and Opus 4.8
- Cold starts in 350ms & searches in 260ms
Why this matters:
Today agents forget important context, redo tasks, waste tokens, and slow down as workflows get more complex.
Cognee solves this.
It’s not a place to build agents. It connects to the agents you’ve already built, across any platform, and makes them significantly cheaper, faster, and more accurate.
Here's how it works:
We raised $7.5M to scale our knowledge engine that gives AI systems memory.
LLMs are powerful, but they’re stateless — once a session ends, context is gone. Companies have their own context, rules and practices. There are no solutions out there that can bring this knowledge reliably to the LLMs.
At @cognee_, we’re building a knowledge engine that allows AI systems to retain context, understand relationships, and dynamically update the knowledge over time.
We raised $7.5M in seed funding led by @pebble_bed — founded by @pam_vagata (ex-founding engineer, @OpenAI) and @keithmadams (founder, @Facebook AI Research Lab) and @tammiesiew - with participation from @42Cap1 and @vermilionfund and angels like @JanOberhauser from @n8n_io, Charles Dolan, @alexcrdean, @matthausk, and @RomanStanek to scale up engineering, accelerate research, and increase number of cognee deployments to clients like @Bayer from 70+ to 700+.
I want to thank the team, the open source community, and to our investors for the trust.
If you are struggling with memory, our devs can get cognee running with your data in 7 days. Don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
To celebrate our launch, we’re offering a 20% discount on our paid tier for the next 12 months with the Product Hunt promo code. If we get 500+ votes today, we’ll bump that discount to 30% for everyone!
