What is Vectorize?
Persistent, model-agnostic memory for agents.
Who is Vectorize best for?
Vectorize is best for developers building AI agents that must remember each user across sessions and learn from mistakes.
Agents with returning users
Each user gets separate memory of preferences, history and decisions that carries over between sessions.
Teams that want to self-host
Hindsight is MIT licensed and runs from one Docker command with its own PostgreSQL, with no usage limits.
Coding agents and MCP clients
A built-in MCP server gives Claude Code, Cursor and other MCP clients remember, recall and reflect tools.
Apps that switch models
The memory layer works with any LLM, so changing models does not wipe what the agent has learned.
How much does Vectorize cost?
Vectorize's Hindsight agent memory is free to self-host under the MIT license, while the managed Hindsight Cloud has no monthly fee and bills each operation, such as $10 per million tokens to retain memories and $0.75 per million tokens to recall them.
