Recallium vs Supermemory
Recallium and Supermemory side by side: what each is built for, how memory is scoped, which clients connect, and what the benchmarks actually measure. Checked September 8, 2026.
Feature comparison
| Feature | Recallium | Supermemory |
|---|---|---|
| Built for | Coding agents sharing one repository’s context | Agents and applications, any domain |
| What it captures | Decisions, patterns and fixes from agent sessions, classified and indexed | Documents, connector content and conversation memories |
| Memory scope | One memory per repository, shared by every agent and teammate | Scoped by container tags |
| Deployment | Managed cloud (early access) | Managed service; open source, can run locally |
| Connects to | Claude, Cursor, Codex, VS Code and 60+ MCP clients | SDKs, plus an MCP server |
| LongMemEval-S | 96.3% recall@10 · 93.4% QA, full protocol published | 95% recall@15, report withdrawn |
Product details checked September 8, 2026; features and availability vary by edition. The benchmark figures measure different things: Recallium’s headline is retrieval recall at depth ten and Supermemory’s at depth fifteen “with aggregation”, a term their report never defined, so this is not a controlled head-to-head ranking. Supermemory’s recall@15 was published at supermemory.ai/research/longmembench, which now redirects to their home page; no archived copy exists, so the link above goes to their current research index.

How they differ in practice
Different product categories, benchmarked on common ground. Supermemory is a memory and context engine for applications: it ingests documents and connected services alongside conversation memories, scoped by container tags. Recallium provides shared team context for coding agents: it captures what agents learn while working in a repository, architecture, decisions and fixes, and gives it to every agent and teammate on that codebase. Both are measured on LongMemEval-S because retrieval quality is measurable and comparable, not because the products are substitutes.
When to choose Recallium
- Your agents work in a shared codebase and need the same context
- You want decisions, patterns and fixes captured from agent sessions, not just facts about users
- Your team uses Claude, Cursor, Codex or VS Code and wants one memory across them
- You want a benchmark whose reader, judge and depth are published
When to choose Supermemory
- You need general-purpose memory for an application, not a coding workflow
- You want connectors that pull documents and services into memory
- You want to run it locally from the open-source repository today
