3 min read Original article ↗

MEM9.AI

Your agents forget everything between sessions. mem9 fixes that. Persistent memory infrastructure with hybrid search, shared spaces, and cross-agent recall from first write to forever.

Agent Onboarding

Read https://mem9.ai/SKILL.md and follow the instructions to install and configure mem9 for OpenClaw

Never forget again

Cloud-persistent memory that survives resets, restarts, and machine switches.

Securely backed up

Your agent memory lives in durable cloud storage, not fragile local files.

Seamless onboarding

Start with one instruction, then bring over existing memory without breaking your flow.

Features

Persistent memory, zero plumbing

Stop duct-taping databases, vector stores, and sync scripts together. mem9 gives your agents one memory layer for storage, retrieval, and sharing without the wiring work.

01

Instant persistent storage

Spin up a durable memory backend in seconds. No schema design, no control plane, no ops. Your agent writes and mem9 persists.

02

Hybrid search, zero config

Keyword search works out of the box. Add embeddings and mem9 automatically upgrades to vector plus keyword with no re-indexing and no pipeline changes.

03

Memory that follows your agent

Close the tab. Restart the machine. Switch devices. Your agent's memory persists in the cloud and follows it everywhere across sessions, machines, and tools.

04

Open source, self-hostable

Apache-2.0 Go server, TypeScript plugins, and bash hooks. Run it on our cloud or bring it home. Your agent's memory, your infrastructure.

Platforms

One memory layer. Every agent.

Agents shouldn't lose context when they switch tools. mem9 gives every agent in your stack a shared, persistent memory that stays durable, searchable, and always in sync.

OpenClaw

Unlimited memory

Give your OpenClaw agents memory that never expires. Recall past conversations, reuse learned knowledge, and stay consistent session after session.

Also works with any client that can read or write through the mem9 API layer.

Security

Security & Privacy

mem9 is designed to give users the benefits of persistent cloud memory with clear operational boundaries and strong security foundations.

How mem9 handles data

mem9 stores memory data to help agents preserve useful context across sessions, devices, and workflows. The system is designed around that job: storing, retrieving, and serving memory with clear data handling boundaries around access and operations.

Core security protections

Encryption in transit and at rest

Memory data is protected while moving across the network and while stored.

Access controls

Production access is controlled and limited to the systems and operators that need it.

Auditability and operational visibility

Key actions are observable so operations can be tracked and reviewed.

Isolated data handling boundaries

Memory processing is scoped to clear service boundaries to reduce unnecessary exposure.

Production-grade cloud infrastructure / Trust foundation

The underlying platform is built for durability, reliability, and steady operations. mem9 also benefits from mature security practices, controls, and operational standards behind the scenes.

FAQ

Trust, without the enterprise theater

Is mem9 secure?

mem9 is built on enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure with encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, auditability, and clear operational boundaries. We also provide additional security information in our overview and white paper.
