[ICLR 2026] LightMem: Lightweight and Efficient Memory-Augmented Generation

67
/ 100
Established

This is a lightweight and efficient memory management framework for Large Language Models (LLMs) and AI Agents. It helps these AI systems remember and use information over long interactions, overcoming the limitations of short-term memory. Developers building intelligent applications can use this to give their AI systems long-term memory capabilities.

677 stars. Actively maintained with 6 commits in the last 30 days. Available on PyPI.

Use this if you are a developer building AI applications or agents that need to retain and recall information over extended conversations or tasks, and you prioritize efficiency and easy integration.

Not ideal if you are an end-user without programming experience, as this is a developer tool for building AI systems, not a standalone application.
