Context Vault — by Paramind AI

Governed memory for AI agents.

Every fact your agents rely on becomes a versioned, time-bound, access-controlled claim — so they act on what's true, see only what they're allowed, and you can prove what they knew.

Current

Time-aware by default

Stale facts expire or get superseded — never acted on.

Authorized

Deny-by-default access

The same query answers differently per agent identity.

Provable

Hash-chained audit

Replay exactly what any agent saw, at any moment.

How it works

Five operations. Nothing more.

Agents read through the Vault before they act, and write through it after.

01
Assert

Write a fact; the Vault decides how it fits.

02
Resolve

Read only what's current & authorized.

03
Reconcile

Conflicts caught on write, never silent.

04
Decay

Confidence fades; stale history compresses.

05
Audit

Every read & write recorded immutably.

How it's different

Recall is solved. Consistency isn't.

Vector search and agent-memory tools help an agent remember more. Context Vault makes that memory true, governed and provable — the gap that actually keeps agents out of production today.

Vector DB / RAG & today's agent memory
Retrieves by similarity — acts on facts that died months ago
No access model — can surface what it should never see
No record of what it saw before it acted
New facts silently overwrite the old ones
Quality rots as volume grows
Context Vault
Bitemporal — every fact knows when it was true
Deny-by-default, per-claim access control
Hash-chained audit — replay any belief state
Conflicts reconciled on write, never silent
Confidence decay keeps memory clean at scale
Deploy on regulated data

Agents act only on current, authorized facts — so legal and risk can sign off.

Swap models freely

Provider-neutral memory survives a move across Claude, GPT, Gemini or Llama.

Pass the audit

Reconstruct exactly what an agent knew, and when — with a cryptographic receipt.

The conflict engine

When a new fact arrives, the Vault decides what it means.

A six-way taxonomy classifies every write — so memory never silently corrupts. Pick a relation.

CONTRADICTIONGenuinely conflicts
SUPERSESSIONUpdate over time
REFINEMENTMore specific
DUPLICATESame fact restated
INDEPENDENTUnrelated
AMBIGUOUSToo close to call
assert · existing vs. incoming
existing · risk_rating = "low" @ apr 2
▼ new claim ▼
incoming · risk_rating = "elevated" @ may 20
CONTRADICTION
Conflicting values over overlapping validity. Resolved by source-trust → confidence → recency, or escalated to human review. Never a silent overwrite.
Federation

Augment your stack. Don't migrate it.

Front your vector store

Pinecone, Weaviate, Qdrant, pgvector — temporal, ACL & audit layered over your results.

no migration

Connect over MCP

One-click into Claude Code, Cursor and any MCP client — no agent rewiring.

no rewiring

Cross-LLM by design

Works equally against Claude, GPT, Gemini, Llama or Mistral. Switch freely.

# → CONTRADICTION vs apr-2 → SUPERSEDED ✓

The company

Paramind AI builds governed memory for enterprise agents.

Context Vault is our flagship product — the layer that makes an agent's knowledge versioned, time-bound, access-controlled and auditable, so autonomous systems can run on data teams couldn't risk before.

Get started

The layer everyone ships beneath their agents.

Bring an agent and a dataset — leave with an audit trail you can prove.
