Supermemory, a startup developing a universal memory API for artificial intelligence (AI) applications, has secured $2.6 million in seed funding. The round was led by Susa Ventures, Browder Capital, and SF1.vc, with notable individual investors including Cloudflare CTO Dane Knecht and Google AI chief Jeff Dean.
Founded by 19-year-old Dhravya Shah, Supermemory aims to enhance the long-term context retention of AI models by extracting insights from unstructured data. The technology builds a knowledge graph based on processed information, enabling AI applications to better understand and personalize user context across multiple sessions. This capability addresses a recognized challenge in AI development where models often struggle to maintain context over extended periods, despite increases in their context windows.
Supermemory's solution ingests diverse data types, including files, documents, chats, projects, emails, PDFs, and app data streams. Its multimodal input functionality supports applications ranging from email clients to video editors, where it can fetch relevant assets from libraries. The company has also reported working with a robotics company to facilitate the retention of visual memories captured by robotic systems, indicating potential applications within industrial automation and operational intelligence.
The company lists several existing customers, including desktop assistant Cluely, AI video editor Montra, AI search platform Scira, multi-MCP tool Rube, and real estate startup Rets. According to Shah, Supermemory differentiates itself in a competitive market, which includes startups like Letta and Mem0, by offering lower latency for surfacing relevant context quickly. Joshua Bowder, founder and CEO of DoNotPay and investor through Bowder Capital, stated, "More and more AI companies will need a memory layer. Supermemory’s solution provides high performance while allowing you to surface relevant context quickly."
Shah's entrepreneurial background includes selling a consumer-facing bot to social media tool Hypefury before founding Supermemory. He initially developed the tool, then named Any Context, as part of a challenge to build new projects weekly, later expanding it into a full-time venture following advice from industry figures, including Cloudflare's Dane Knecht.
