PUBLIC ALPHA

Dakera Documentation

The memory engine for AI agents. A single Rust binary that replaces vector search, full-text search, embeddings, agent memory, knowledge graphs, and more. REST + gRPC APIs, on-device inference, AES-256-GCM encryption at rest, multi-node HA clustering, and 83 MCP tools out of the box.

Public Alpha — Dakera is live. Self-hosted binary, all SDKs, CLI, and MCP server are fully operational and available now. Dakera Cloud (managed hosting, SLA, team monitoring) is coming next — join the waitlist →

What Dakera replaces

Instead of runningDakera provides
Qdrant · Pinecone · WeaviateHNSW, IVF, SPFresh, and Flat vector indexes with SIMD-accelerated distances
Elasticsearch · OpenSearchBM25 full-text search engine with per-namespace indexes
OpenAI / Cohere embeddings APIOn-device ONNX inference (MiniLM, BGE, E5) — zero API calls
Redis / Postgres memory layerDecay-weighted agent memory with sessions, importance scoring, and 6 decay strategies
Neo4j knowledge graphEntity graph with 4 edge types and cross-agent network visualization
Mem0 / Zep memory servicesImport/export from Mem0 and Zep formats; superset feature coverage
Separate NER serviceGLiNER zero-shot named entity extraction with multi-provider support
87.6% on LoCoMo — Dakera's memory engine scores 87.6% on the full LoCoMo benchmark (50 sessions, 1,540 questions, May 2026). Read the methodology →

Key capabilities

CapabilityDescription
Hybrid RetrievalVector ANN + BM25 full-text combined via Reciprocal Rank Fusion. Cross-encoder reranking. Sub-10ms at scale.
On-device InferenceEmbeddings (MiniLM, BGE, E5), reranking, and entity extraction via ONNX Runtime — zero external API calls.
Memory DecaySix decay strategies. Per-type TTLs. Spaced repetition. Configurable half-life and access-count boosting.
Knowledge GraphsEntity graph with 4 edge types. BFS traversal and cross-agent network visualization.
HA ClusteringGossip membership, leader election, consistent-hash sharding, replication, automatic rebalancing.
Enterprise SecurityAES-256-GCM encryption at rest, scoped API keys, rate limiting, injection detection, full audit logging.
AutoPilotBackground deduplication and consolidation of low-importance memories.
MCP Native83 tools for Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, and Windsurf. No code changes required.
Dual ProtocolREST API on port 3300 and gRPC API on port 50051. Both share the same engine, storage, and auth layers.
Query ClassificationML-powered semantic router classifies queries (factual, multi-hop, temporal, comparison) and routes to the optimal retrieval strategy.
Session ManagementGroup memories by agent session. Session-scoped recalls. Auto-generate session summaries. Per-session deduplication.
Entity ExtractionGLiNER zero-shot NER + rule-based pre-pass (UUID, URL, email, dates). Multi-provider support (OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama).
Backup & RecoveryScheduled backups with zstd compression and AES-256 encryption. Point-in-time snapshots. Write-ahead log. Import/export (Mem0, Zep, JSONL, CSV).
Cross-encoder Rerankingbge-reranker-base ONNX model for relevance scoring. Applied after initial retrieval for higher-precision results.
