What's Good

MIT (vectorize-io/hindsight). Self-host via Docker, pip, or Helm; Python/TS clients; MCP server exposing retain/recall/reflect per bank. Docs, cookbook, and integrations at hindsight.vectorize.io. Cloud is optional when you do not want to run the stack yourself.

The Catch

Vs Mem0, Graphiti, Engram, and Supermemory: Hindsight is a retain/recall/reflect memory product with optional hosted Cloud/Enterprise, not a general memory SDK alone, a temporal knowledge graph, a local binary brain, or a speed-first memory API. Treat LongMemEval / SOTA marketing as vendor claims, not catalog proof; Cloud and Enterprise are upsell paths beside the OSS self-host bar.

Verdict

MIT agent memory when you want retain→recall→reflect (+ MCP) you can self-host; keep Cloud optional and do not bet the stack on a single eval leaderboard.
