Which is cheapest for coding agents?

Audaxic — Starter $12 vs Mem0 $19 and SuperMemory $19 Pro, Growth $50 vs $79/$100, Pro $125 vs $249/$399 for equivalent quotas. Flat monthly, no overages.

Do I need graph memory?

For coding agents that track relationships between files, decisions, and preferences, yes. Audaxic includes graph on all plans; Mem0 restricts to Pro+. Zep’s temporal graph is powerful but pricier and self-host heavy.

Does Audaxic have MCP?

Yes — cloud-hosted at memory-mcp.audaxic.com/mcp for Claude Desktop/Cursor/Windsurf, plus plugins for Claude Code/Codex/OpenCode.

Mem0 vs SuperMemory vs Zep vs Audaxic (2026 Comparison)

Choosing a memory layer for coding agents in 2026? Here’s a head-to-head of Mem0 Platform, SuperMemory, Zep (temporal memory), and Audaxic — the cheapest flat-priced option on Cloudflare edge. Same quotas compared, no marketing fluff.

The short answer

If you want the cheapest persistent memory for Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode with MCP and flat pricing, Audaxic wins on price at every tier. If you need temporal knowledge-graph with time-decay, Zep is strongest (but pricier and self-host heavy). SuperMemory is a solid Notion/Drive-integrated option, but usage-based with auto top-up. Mem0 is the incumbent but Pro-only graph and 1–3 project limits hurt coding teams.

Pricing — same quotas, different bills

Reuses our pricing and comparison table (Aug 2026). Audaxic unlimited projects on all plans; others limit or charge more.

Plan	Mem0 Platform	SuperMemory	Zep Cloud	Audaxic
Free	10K add, 1K search	~10K add, ~1K search	~10K add, limited	10K add, 1K retrieve
Starter	$19 (50K/5K)	$19 Pro (~40K/4K)	~$25 (~30K)	$12 (50K/5K) ✓
Growth	$79 (200K/20K)	$100 Max (~260K/26K)	~$75 (~150K)	$50 (200K/20K) ✓
Pro	$249 (500K/50K)	$399 Scale (~1.2M/120K)	~$150+ (custom)	$125 (500K/50K) ✓
Billing	Per-request + overages	Usage + auto top-up	Usage + storage	Flat, no overages

Bottom line: Audaxic is 37–50% cheaper at each matching quota, flat. No top-up math.

When to pick which

Pick Audaxic if: you run Claude Code, Codex, or OpenCode daily and want the cheapest persistent memory with flat billing and zero ops. You get MCP + plugins + import tool (@audaxic/memory-import) included. See also mem0 alternative.

Pick Mem0 if: you already have mem0 Cloud and need enterprise features (more than unlimited projects per org is edge case, but you’re locked in).

Pick SuperMemory if: you need Notion/Drive/Gmail connectors for non-coding use (docs, email memory) and don’t mind usage-based pricing.

Pick Zep if: you need temporal graphs (time-aware memory) and are comfortable self-hosting or paying premium for recency decay. Great for assistants, overkill for “remember my coding preferences.”

Switching note

Audaxic REST has mem0-like shapes — point your client at https://api.memory.audaxic.com with your ak_ key and verify against our docs. For Zep/SuperMemory, map SDK calls to /add + /search. Full: quickstart.
