Use Cases

What you can build with Memvid

Memvid is the first portable, serverless memory layer that gives every AI agent instant recall and persistent memory. Here are some interesting ways developers are using Memvid across hundreds of real-world applications.

AI Agents

Give your agents persistent memory across sessions. Build autonomous systems that learn and remember.

RAG Applications

Build retrieval-augmented generation systems with sub-5ms search latency. Perfect for chatbots and Q&A.

Knowledge Bases

Create searchable company wikis, documentation systems, and internal knowledge repositories.

Chatbot Memory

Add long-term memory to your chatbots. Remember user preferences, past conversations, and context.

Document Processing

Ingest PDFs, docs, and text at scale. Automatic chunking, embedding, and indexing.

Multi-Agent Systems

Share memory between agents. Build collaborative AI systems with shared context.

Open Source

Built with Memvid

Discover real agents and projects built with Memvid. Created by our team and the community, and shared for anyone to explore, fork, and use.

Features

Memvid works out of the box.

Here's how.

Core

Single-File Architecture

Everything in one portable .mv2 file. Data, embeddings, indices, and WAL. No databases, no servers, no complexity.

Sub-5ms Search

Lightning-fast hybrid search combining BM25 lexical matching with semantic vector embeddings.

Crash-Safe & Deterministic

Embedded WAL ensures data integrity. Automatic recovery after crashes. Identical inputs produce identical outputs.

Multi-Language SDKs

Native bindings for Python, Node.js, and Rust. Plus CLI and MCP server for any AI framework.

Time-Based Queries

Built-in timeline index for temporal queries. Perfect for conversation history and time-sensitive retrieval.

Works Everywhere

Local-first, offline-capable. Share files via USB, cloud, or Git. No vendor lock-in.
