I keep running in the same problem of each AI app “remembers” me in its own silo. ChatGPT knows my project details, Cursor forgets them, Claude starts from zero… so I end up re-explaining myself dozens of times a day across these apps.

The deeper problem

1. Not portable – context is vendor-locked; nothing travels across tools.

2. Not relational – most memory systems store only the latest fact (“sticky notes”) with no history or provenance.

3. Not yours – your AI memory is sensitive first-party data, yet you have no control over where it lives or how it’s queried.

What we built

- CORE (Context Oriented Relational Engine): An open source, shareable knowledge graph (your memory vault) that lets any LLM (ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude, SOL, etc.) share and query the same persistent context.

- Temporal + relational: Every fact gets a full version history (who, when, why), and nothing is wiped out when you change it—just timestamped and retired.

- Local-first or hosted: Run it offline in Docker, or use our hosted instance. You choose which memories sync and which stay private.

- Hosted free tier (HN launch): https://core.heysol.ai

It certainly looks interesting, how does this differ from a plan.md?

Hey plan.md mostly will be a static file that you manually have to maintain. It won't be relational and not be able to form connections between info. You can't recall or query intelligently? (When did my preference change?)

CORE lets you - Automatically extracts and stores facts from conversations - Builds intelligent connections between related information - Answers complex queries ("What did I say about something and when?") - Detects contradictions and explains changes with full context

For simple fact recall, plan.md should work but for complex systems a relational memory should be able to help better.
