# Zep

> Zep is the Context Lake for AI agents — enterprise infrastructure that manages, governs, and serves agent memory at scale.

Zep provides context engineering for production AI agents: a governed Context Lake of context graphs, sub-200ms retrieval at scale, and SOC 2 Type II + HIPAA compliance. Deploy in Zep's cloud, your VPC, or with your own keys.

Built on the open-source Graphiti framework and powered by Zep's proprietary Context Graph Engine. SDKs for Python, TypeScript, and Go.

Benchmarked on LoCoMo and LongMemEval against mem0 and other agent-memory systems.

## Platform

- [The Context Lake — Enterprise infrastructure for agent memory](https://www.getzep.com/platform/context-lake/): Millions of context graphs, governed and served as one system. The data-lake pattern, applied to agent context. Sub-200ms retrieval, native governance, proprietary runtime.
- [The Context Graph Engine — Zep's runtime for governed context at scale](https://www.getzep.com/platform/context-graph-engine/): Zep's proprietary runtime for the Context Lake. Millions of governed graphs, sub-200ms retrieval, graph and search primitives over a three-tier data layer.
- [Graphiti — Zep](https://www.getzep.com/platform/graphiti/): Graphiti is the open-source Context Graph framework that powers Zep.

## Product

- [Agent Memory — Zep](https://www.getzep.com/product/agent-memory/): Memory for AI agents. Multi-source ingest, temporal invalidation, Observations, and smart context assembly. Customizable to your domain.

## Solutions

- [Context Engineering for AI Agents — Zep](https://www.getzep.com/solutions/context-engineering/): Context engineering is the practice of designing and managing the context AI agents see at every call. Agent memory is the category. The Context Lake is how Zep delivers it.
- [The Mem0 alternative — Zep agent memory built for production](https://www.getzep.com/mem0-alternative/): Zep is the agent memory layer used in production. Higher accuracy, faster retrieval, fewer tokens than mem0 — plus the customization, governance, and scale production agents need.
