## 👾 MemOS: Memory Operating System for LLM & AI Agents

**MemOS** is a Memory Operating System for LLMs and AI agents that unifies **store / retrieve / manage** for long-term memory, enabling **context-aware and personalized** interactions with **KB**, **multi-modal**, **tool memory**, and **enterprise-grade** optimizations built in.


### Key Features

- **Unified Memory API**: A single API to add, retrieve, edit, and delete memory—structured as a graph, inspectable and editable by design, not a black-box embedding store.
- **Multi-Modal Memory**: Natively supports text, images, tool traces, and personas, retrieved and reasoned together in one memory system.
- **Multi-Cube Knowledge Base Management**: Manage multiple knowledge bases as composable memory cubes, enabling isolation, controlled sharing, and dynamic composition across users, projects, and agents.
- **Asynchronous Ingestion via MemScheduler**: Run memory operations asynchronously with millisecond-level latency for production stability under high concurrency.
- **Memory Feedback & Correction**: Refine memory with natural-language feedback—correcting, supplementing, or replacing existing memories over time.


### News

## 🚀 Quick-start Guide

### ☁️ 1、Cloud API (Hosted)
#### Get API Key
- Sign up on the [MemOS dashboard](https://memos-dashboard.openmem.net/cn/quickstart/?source=landing)
- Go to **API Keys** and copy your key

#### Next Steps
- [MemOS Cloud Getting Started](https://memos-docs.openmem.net/memos_cloud/quick_start/)
  Connect to MemOS Cloud and enable memory in minutes.
- [MemOS Cloud Platform](https://memos.openmem.net/?from=/quickstart/)
