MemoryLake

MemoryLake

MemoryLake is portable AI memory for ChatGPT, Claude, Codex and Gemini — encrypted, exportable, and shared across every agent you run.

78/100Safe BetFree · from $3.125 per 1M tokensFreemium

Portability plus audit trail is the reason to pay here, not raw recall. If you bounce between Claude Code, Codex and OpenClaw daily, typed memories, conflict resolution and provenance chains are tangible within a month. Watch the write economics: those 826 Pro pages are the entire month, so document-heavy pipelines should model credits before committing.

Skip it if

Skip MemoryLake if you only ever use one assistant, since native memory is already simpler and you'd be paying token-per-page for context that app already keeps for you.

The 30-second take
Biggest gripe

Every operation is token-metered, and file, image and text processing count as memory writes rather than queries — so a document-heavy month eats your quota faster than retrieval-heavy use.

Price reality

For a solo power user, $19/mo Pro (about $2.58 per 1M tokens if you pay yearly) sits in the same range as a single ChatGPT or Claude subscription and buys cross-model memory plus 6.2M tokens. Premium at $199/mo fits heavy team-scale ingestion at 66M tokens. Against developer-first memory layers like Mem0 or Zep, MemoryLake costs more per seat but bundles audit-grade provenance, versioning and built-in corpora you'd otherwise assemble yourself.

About MemoryLake

FreemiumIntermediateAPI availableWeb · API · Plugin

MemoryLake is a persistent memory layer for people who run more than one AI. Instead of each assistant starting cold, MemoryLake stores what you feed ChatGPT, Claude, Codex, Gemini, Qwen, OpenClaw, AutoGPT, Manus and Perplexity inside a portable, encrypted Memory Passport, then injects the relevant context into whichever model or agent you're in. Everything stays in your Passport — exportable in one click, deletable in one click, with no copies retained. Memory is typed, not one flat blob. Background, Fact, Event, Dialogue, Reflection and Skill stores are kept separately so retrieval hits the right kind of memory, and each entry carries a provenance chain showing its source, creation time, transformations and access log. When two sources disagree — ChatGPT says dark mode, Claude says light mode — the Conflict Engine catches it at ingest and resolves by recency, source priority, confidence weighting or a manual rule, keeping both versions in a git-like timeline with branch, merge, rollback and diff. Ingestion is multimodal: PDFs, Word and PPT pages, Excel worksheets, CSV, text, images, audio and video, with the MemoryLake-D1 v2 engine doing visual and logical validation on mixed documents. Pricing is metered by token, and the distinction that matters is write vs. query — PDF, image, spreadsheet and text processing are memory writes, not retrievals. The vendor's own table puts Pro at roughly 826 PDF pages and 24,800 retrieval calls per month. Security is architectural rather than promised: triple-party AES-256 means no single party, MemoryLake included, holds all keys, and per-AI visibility controls decide which assistant reads what. ISO/IEC 27001, SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 20000-1, GDPR, PCI DSS and ISO 9001/14001/45001 are all listed. Positioning-wise, this is the auditable, cross-vendor option next to developer-first libraries like Mem0 and Zep.

Behind the Verdict

The pitch that survives scrutiny here is ownership, not benchmarks. MemoryLake's own CopyPassport framing is unusually blunt — export everything in one click, delete everything in one click, no backups kept — and that is what a security reviewer will actually ask about, not a LoCoMo chart. Where it earns its keep is multi-terminal work. Install once for Claude Code, keep the same memory in Codex, connect an OpenClaw key and the context follows you. The v1.6.0 release extended that to domain knowledge injection across 10+ verticals on top of the 10PB+ structured knowledge layer, so agents inherit vertical context without you shipping a vector store first. QueryAgent v2 and Memory Code cover the programmable side. We'd pass if you live inside one assistant. Native memory is free, already wired in, and nothing about a Passport beats it for a single-model workflow. Teams expecting shared real-time editing will also find memory is individual Passport-based, with sharing arriving through WorkBrain layers and department boundaries rather than a Google-Docs-style canvas. The real cost trap is comprehension vs. retrieval. Reading a 200-page PDF is a memory write; asking a question about it is a retrieval call. Pro's 826 pages and 24,800 calls look generous until half your month is document intake. Budget credits at $3.125 per 1M tokens before, not after, you hit the wall. Against Mem0 and Zep, the tradeoff is clear: they are lighter, cheaper for pure developer plumbing, and closer to the metal. MemoryLake is the heavier, opinionated stack — typed memory, conflict resolution, git-like versioning, immutable audit logs, on-prem Kubernetes with a white-label option. If your compliance team needs an exportable audit chain, that weight is the product.

Real-world workflow fit

Concrete scenarios for the personas MemoryLake actually fits — and what changes day-one when you adopt it.

Solo power user juggling ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini

Connect each assistant to your Memory Passport, let MemoryLake ingest an existing project folder of PDFs and notes, then ask a question in Claude that references a decision you made in ChatGPT last month.

Outcome: One consistent context across all three assistants, with the conflicting-preference case caught at ingest and both versions preserved in the audit trail instead of silently overwritten.

Developer building a multi-agent system on Claude Code and OpenClaw

Install the OpenClaw one-click memory integration, wire the MCP Server into Claude Code, and let agents write findings to Instance-, Agent- and Session-scoped memory with sharing policies between them.

Outcome: Agents stop re-deriving the same conclusions across terminals, retrieval returns in under 30ms P99, and you can diff or roll back a memory timeline when an agent learns something wrong.

Research or finance team grounding outputs in public corpora

Query the built-in 40M+ academic papers, 3M+ SEC filings and live financial feeds straight from memory alongside your own ingested decks and spreadsheets, with per-AI visibility set so each assistant sees only its slice.

Outcome: Grounded answers without standing up an ingestion pipeline or managing API keys for each corpus, and token spend is predictable because per-operation rates are published.

Use Cases

Models Under the Hood

MemoryLake-D1

as of 2026-10-18

Limitations

  • MemoryLake meters every operation by token, and file, image and text processing count as memory writes rather than queries — so heavy multimodal ingestion consumes quota faster than the retrieval numbers suggest.
  • On Free that means roughly 40 PDF/Word/PPT pages, 40 images or 6 Excel sheets a month; Pro's 6.2M tokens covers roughly 826 pages or 826 images, and anything beyond your plan draws on a prepaid credit balance billed at $3.125 per 1M tokens (per operation: $0.0225 per PDF page or image, $0.135 per Excel sheet or CSV, $0.00075 per retrieval call, $0.015 per web search).
  • WorkBrain is the team sharing layer; the core memory is individual Passport-based, so it is not a real-time collaborative document.
  • The product is neutral memory infrastructure — it does nothing useful until you connect it to external AI assistants or agent platforms, and most capabilities depend on connectivity.

Free

$0/mo

Ideal for

Someone testing cross-model memory with one project — a handful of PDFs, images or spreadsheets over a month.

What this tier adds

Free entry point: 300,000 tokens per month, roughly 40 PDF/Word/PPT pages, 40 images, 6 Excel sheets or 6 CSV files, about 1,200 retrieval calls and 62 web searches.

Pro

$19/mo

Ideal for

Regular individual or small team running several assistants with ongoing document ingestion.

What this tier adds

Adds 6.2M tokens per month (~826 PDF pages or images, ~24,800 retrieval calls); effective ~$3.06 per 1M monthly or ~$2.58 yearly with about 17% savings on annual billing.

Premium

$199/mo

Ideal for

Heavy users and team-scale workloads running large document backfills and high retrieval volume.

What this tier adds

Adds 66M tokens per month (~8,800 PDF pages or images, ~264,000 retrieval calls, ~13,750 web searches); effective ~$3.02 per 1M monthly or ~$2.52 yearly with about 19% savings.

Credit Balance

$3.125 per 1M tokens

Ideal for

Anyone who occasionally exceeds their plan quota and wants usage to continue without changing tiers.

What this tier adds

Prepaid token pool billed from $3.125 per 1M tokens, consumed only after plan quota is exhausted, no expiration, with auto-recharge available.

Hidden costs & gotchas

What the public pricing page doesn't put in bold. Captured from pricing-page footnotes, contract terms, and recurring complaints.

  • Every operation is token-metered, and file, image and text processing count as memory writes rather than queries — so a document-heavy month eats your quota faster than retrieval-heavy use.
  • Run past your plan quota and usage draws from your prepaid Credit Balance at $3.125 per 1M tokens ($0.0225 per PDF page or image, $0.135 per Excel sheet or CSV), which is real money once a large backfill hits.
  • Yearly billing lowers the effective per-million rate to about $2.58 on Pro and $2.52 on Premium versus $3.06 and $3.02 monthly — staying month-to-month on a heavy workload costs you the discount.
  • Credits are consumed only after your monthly quota runs out, and they never expire — but if you don't enable auto-recharge, operations stop mid-cycle when both are empty.

Where the pricing makes sense

The company stage and team size where MemoryLake's pricing actually pencils out — and where peers do it cheaper.

For a solo power user, $19/mo Pro (about $2.58 per 1M tokens if you pay yearly) sits in the same range as a single ChatGPT or Claude subscription and buys cross-model memory plus 6.2M tokens. Premium at $199/mo fits heavy team-scale ingestion at 66M tokens. Against developer-first memory layers like Mem0 or Zep, MemoryLake costs more per seat but bundles audit-grade provenance, versioning and built-in corpora you'd otherwise assemble yourself.

Setup time & first value

How long it actually takes to get something useful out of MemoryLake — broken out by persona, not the marketing-page minute.

Solo power user: connect one assistant and ingest a starter folder in well under an hour, first useful recall same session. Developer wiring an agent platform: an afternoon to install the OpenClaw or MCP integration and define sharing policies. Enterprise on-premise with Kubernetes operator plus WorkBrain: days, mostly compliance and residency approvals rather than configuration.

Switching to or from MemoryLake

How to bring data in from common predecessors and how to get it back out — written for the switcher, not the buyer.

Migrating in
  • →From ChatGPT Memory: export what you can, then ingest your conversations and notes so typed memories replace the flat chat log.
  • →From Claude Memory: use the Claude integration to keep the same context available in Claude and every other assistant you connect.
  • →From Mem0 or Zep: re-ingest your existing vector store or export files, then rebuild retrieval as typed memories with conflict rules attached.
  • →From a personal notes or Obsidian vault: ingest Markdown and text files directly — text processing runs at $0.45 per 1M characters.
Migrating out
  • ↗To Mem0 or Zep: export your Memory Passport and re-ingest into the target's store, then rewrite retrieval calls against its API.
  • ↗To ChatGPT Memory or Claude Memory: export your memories and keep them in the native assistant, accepting that the other assistants lose that context.
  • ↗To a self-hosted vector database: export the Passport and reconstruct your own retrieval and conflict layers manually.
