Zep

Zep helps enterprise teams give AI agents reliable, governed context. It unifies business data, documents, and conversations into shared context so agents can complete tasks with the correct facts instead of relying on disconnected snippets.

Zep ingests records from across your business, then builds a Context Graph for each user, customer, account, or domain. Facts in the graph are dated and updated as your underlying data changes, supporting temporal context that stays current. During retrieval, Zep filters context based on policies and returns only what a task depends on, helping reduce token use while keeping responses grounded in the right information.

A key focus is governance and auditability. Zep enforces access control and retention policies across graphs and record retrieval decisions, with detailed logs of requests and access decisions for audit. It also tracks provenance by linking each record back to its source, enabling answers to be traced to where each fact came from.

Zep supports multiple deployment options: Zep Cloud (managed), Zep Cloud with your own encryption keys (BYOK), or a deployment inside your VPC (BYOC). It’s designed for teams building enterprise context graphs, agent memory, and customer/account context where shared knowledge must be both accurate and governed.

What problem does Zep solve for enterprise AI agents?

Zep provides governed, task-relevant context by unifying business data, documents, and conversations. It helps agents answer based on the right facts rather than disconnected snippets.

How does Zep build the context an agent uses?

Zep ingests records across your business, then builds a Context Graph for each user, customer, account, or domain. During retrieval, it returns only the facts each task depends on.

How does Zep control what each agent can access?

Policies determine what context each agent can retrieve, and Zep logs retrieval activity and access decisions for audit. Access control is enforced alongside the data retrieval process.

Can answers be traced back to their sources?

Yes. Each record retains a link to its source, and facts can be traced back to their origins so you can audit where information in an answer came from.

How does Zep keep context up to date as data changes?

Zep’s Context Graph facts are dated and updated as your data changes, and it supports live ingestion so the context can evolve over time.

What deployment options are available for Zep?

You can use Zep Cloud (managed), Zep Cloud with your own encryption keys (BYOK), or deploy inside your VPC (BYOC) for control over the trust boundary.
