Overview
Graphiti builds context graphs where every fact has a validity window and traces back to its source episode, ingesting text and JSON incrementally. Retrieval fuses embeddings, BM25 and graph traversal. It needs a graph database (Neo4j, FalkorDB or Neptune) and defaults to OpenAI, with Anthropic, Gemini, Groq and OpenAI-compatible servers supported; REST and MCP servers ship in the repo.
Who it is for: Developers who want temporal graph memory and can run a graph database
Strengths
- Bi-temporal facts: old facts are invalidated, not deleted, so history stays queryable
- Hybrid retrieval combines embeddings, BM25 and graph traversal with sub-second latency claims
- Custom entity and edge types via Pydantic models
- Docker Compose profiles for Neo4j or FalkorDB; MCP and REST servers included
Weaknesses
- Requires Neo4j, FalkorDB or Amazon Neptune plus OpenSearch; Kuzu is deprecated
- Defaults to OpenAI; needs structured-output models, smaller models may fail ingestion
- Default SEMAPHORE_LIMIT of 10 keeps ingestion slow to avoid 429 errors
- Users, threads and dashboards are left to the commercial Zep platform
What it needs
- no GPU
- Docker + Compose
- Needs Neo4j 5.26, FalkorDB 1.1.2 or Amazon Neptune
- Models: OpenAI (default), Azure OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Groq
