Continuum

State that sticks, remembered.

Continuum is an open-source persistence layer for services that need useful memory between interactions. It distills long conversations into structured records, connects related context, and retrieves the right information when it matters.

What Continuum provides

  • Automatic distillation — turn long interaction logs into compact, useful records.
  • Observable memory — inspect what was stored, when it was created, what triggered retrieval, and its relevance score.
  • Scoped access control — scope records by user, session, service, or custom namespace.
  • Multi-signal retrieval — combine semantic similarity, recency, and relational context for stronger recall.
  • Compliance-ready controls — support for customer-managed encryption keys and data residency choices.
  • TTL and decay — let records expire, strengthen through access, or age naturally.
  • Shared scopes — let one service write context while downstream services read it.
  • Drop-in SDKs — Python and Node.js packages, a REST API, and integrations for popular orchestration frameworks.

Quick start

Install the SDK that matches your service, or run the self-hosted server:

pip install continuum-ai
# or
npm install continuum-ai
# or
Docker run -p 8282:8282 continuum/server

Store context as it happens and recall it later:

from continuum import Client

client = Client()
client.add("prefers dark roast, no sugar", scope="user_alice")

results = client.search("coffee preferences", scope="user_alice")
print(results)

How it works

  1. Install the SDK or self-host the server.
  2. Remember useful context as interactions happen; Continuum extracts and deduplicates what matters.
  3. Recall relevant records with semantic search, recency weighting, and relational context.

Integrations

Continuum is designed to work with the tools teams already use, including LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen, the Vercel AI SDK, LlamaIndex, and any client that can call its REST API.
