TEMPORAL MEMORY

New facts win. Old facts stay.

Supersede. A changed fact is superseded, its predecessor kept.
Three clocks. Every fact carries three independent timelines.
Kept. Nothing is lost, and the history is queryable.

01 |SUPERSESSION

The old fact stays. The new one wins. History is superseded, never erased.

02 |WHAT YOU GET

Memory with a history. Every fact knows when it was recorded, true and learned.

03 |WHY IT MATTERS

What overwriting throws away. The past decision, the wrong answer and the proof.

01

Debuggable

When an agent gets something wrong, you can see exactly what it knew and when.

02

Tri-temporal

Three clocks separate when a fact was recorded, when it held true and when it was learned, so time questions have exact answers.

03

Reconciled deliberately

Contradictions stay explicit and are reconciled on purpose rather than blurred into one value.

GET STARTED

Give your agents a memory with a history. Temporal memory, trustworthy recall and a queryable audit trail: one system to buy, secure and audit once. Built on SurrealDB.
