Letta
Letta (formerly MemGPT) provides stateful agents with long-term memory management for extended conversations and tasks. It enables persistent multi-turn interactions across sessions.
Solid choice for most workflows
You're building agents that need to remember context across dozens or hundreds of turns without losing information to context window limits.
Agents will make tool calls to update their own memory mid-conversation. This adds latency per turn but eliminates context window cliffs. Memory searches are fast (database-backed). You'll need to monitor whether agents are actually using memory effectively—just having it available doesn't guarantee good behavior.
You need to deploy hundreds or millions of independent agents (e.g., personalized recommendation agents) and verify they behave correctly as you iterate on prompts, models, or tools.
Evals run agents exactly as they would in production, which is powerful but slower than unit tests. Grading with LLM-as-judge adds cost and latency. You'll catch regressions reliably, but defining good test cases requires domain knowledge.
You want to build multi-agent systems where agents coordinate by calling each other or sharing memory, without managing message queues or explicit orchestration.
Direct agent-to-agent calls are simpler than queue-based systems but require careful design to avoid infinite loops or cascading failures. Shared memory is powerful but introduces consistency concerns at scale.
Memory management is agent-driven, not guaranteed optimal
Letta gives agents tools to edit their own memory, but there's no guarantee they'll use them wisely. Agents may forget important details, over-write critical context, or waste tokens on redundant memory updates. You need to test and monitor actual memory behavior.
Latency per turn increases with memory operations
Every time an agent updates memory, that's an extra tool call and database write. Long conversations with frequent memory edits will be slower than stateless agents. For latency-sensitive applications (e.g., real-time chat), test end-to-end performance early.

What It Actually Does
Letta lets you build AI agents that remember conversations across sessions, so they can pick up where they left off and handle long-running tasks without losing context.
