Timing: Anthropic just launched memory import for Claude yesterday. You can export your ChatGPT memories and bring them over. It's a step in the right direction, but it's still moving your data from one silo to another. You don't really own that memory.
The problem as I see it: there's no standard protocol for AI memory. You can't say "here's my MCP server, use it for memory in every session." Each platform builds its own walled garden. Number portability took regulation. Email interoperability took SMTP. AI memory needs something similar.
What Memobase is: a universal, AI-agnostic memory layer. It builds a structured profile — your preferences, context, project history — that any connected AI tool reads from. Not locked inside ChatGPT, Claude, or any single platform.
Technical approach: - Profile-based memory, not raw conversation logs. Compact and fast (sub-100ms lookups). - You own your data. Full visibility, editing, deletion, export. Self-hosted option coming. - Working toward an open protocol so any tool can plug in — not just our integrations.
What's live: open beta with the core memory and integrations for the major tools. What's still patchy: Agents don't automatically use it all the time without being prodded, the protocol spec is still being formalized, and we need more tools to adopt it for this to really work.
I'd love to hear: - Would you want your AI memory to live outside any single platform, or do you prefer each tool handling it? - What would the protocol need to look like for you to build against it? - Technical feedback on the approach — we chose profile-based RAG vs knowledge graphs etc, happy to go deep on that.
