HyperMind

🧠 Intelligent Memory Layer for Large Language Models

Transform stateless LLMs into context-aware AI agents with persistent, optimized memory

---

✨ What is HyperMind?

HyperMind is a production-grade memory proxy that sits between your application and any LLM provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Groq, Google). It automatically manages conversation context and long-term memory using cognitive science principles and advanced optimization techniques, preventing vector database bloat while maintaining intelligent memory retention. Try out the demo at: HyperMind chat *experimental

🎯 The Problem

• LLMs are stateless - they forget everything after each conversation
• Vector databases grow indefinitely, causing performance degradation
• Building persistent memory is complex and expensive
• No intelligent filtering - everything gets stored, even irrelevant content
• Context windows are limited and expensive to extend

🚀 The Solution

HyperMind provides a universal memory layer with comprehensive optimization:

# Instead of calling providers directly:
curl https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions
curl https://api.anthropic.com/v1/messages
curl https://api.groq.com/openai/v1/chat/completions
curl https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/openai/chat/completions

# Call HyperMind (same API, but with intelligent memory):
curl https://your-hypermind.workers.dev/router/v1/chat/completions

Your AI now remembers everything - while staying fast and cost-efficient.

🌟 Key Features

🧠 Memory Router

• 🔌 Universal Proxy: Works with any LLM provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Groq, Google)
• 🔄 Multi-Provider Support: Seamlessly switch between providers while maintaining memory
• ⚡ Low Latency: Transparent proxy adds <700ms overhead
• 💰 Cost Transparent: Uses your API keys, zero markup

🔍 Hybrid Search Engine

Combines three search strategies for comprehensive memory retrieval:

1. 🎯 Vector Search - Semantic similarity using embeddings
2. 🕸️ Graph Traversal - Entity relationships and knowledge graphs
3. ⏰ Chronological - Recent context and temporal relevance

🎛️ Intelligent Memory Optimization

Prevents vector database bloat with advanced techniques:

1. 🔗 Smart Deduplication - Detects and merges similar memories (90% similarity threshold)
2. 📊 Significance Filtering - Skips low-value content (greetings, filler, acknowledgments)
3. 📦 Tiered Archival - Moves old memories through Hot→Warm→Cold→Archived tiers
4. 🔄 Memory Consolidation - Clusters and summarizes related memories
5. ⚡ Batch Processing - Queues embeddings for efficient API usage

Result: 40-60% storage reduction, 2-3x faster search, 50-70% fewer API calls

📊 Knowledge Graph

• 🔗 Temporal Triplets: Subject-Predicate-Object with time validity
• 🏷️ Entity Extraction: Automatic extraction of people, places, concepts
• 📝 Episodic Classification: Categorizes memories by type (comparison, question, definition, list, factual)
• 📉 Smart Decay: Different forgetting rates for different memory types

⏱️ Cognitive Science Integration

Based on Ebbinghaus' Forgetting Curve:

Tier	Age	Vector Search	Status
🔥 Hot	0-7 days	Active	Full access
🌡️ Warm	7-30 days	Active	Full access
❄️ Cold	30-90 days	Active	Lower priority

🔧 Advanced Features

Smart Deduplication

Prevents storing duplicate or near-duplicate memories:

// Automatic similarity detection
const similarity = cosineSimilarity(newEmbedding, existingEmbedding);
if (similarity > 0.90) {
  // Merge with existing memory instead of creating new
  await mergeMemories(existing, newContent);
}

Significance Filtering

Filters out low-value content automatically:

• ❌ Generic greetings: "hi", "hello", "thanks"
• ❌ Acknowledgments: "ok", "got it", "understood"
• ❌ Emoji-only messages
• ❌ Very short content (< 20 characters)
• ✅ Technical discussions (high significance score)
• ✅ Personal information (high significance score)

Memory Consolidation

Automatically clusters and summarizes related memories:

// Daily consolidation process
1. Find related memories (cosine similarity > 0.70)
2. Group into clusters (3+ memories per cluster)
3. Generate summary memory
4. Mark originals as consolidated
5. Update vector index with summary

Result: 30-40% reduction in active corpus size

Tiered Archival

Automatically moves memories through storage tiers:

// Archival process
Hot (0-7d)   → Full vector search, all features active
Warm (7-30d) → Full vector search, lower priority
Cold (30-90d)→ Vector search only if needed
Archived     → Removed from vector index, D1 only
Ancient      → Compressed, stored in R2 (optional)

Result: 2-3x faster search on large datasets
