đ cognee Update: July 2025
Hey there, cognee community!
July was a big one. We hit several major milestones we've been working toward for months: our SaaS platform entered beta, our processing architecture was overhauled for scale, and we wrapped three substantial case studies. Let's dive in.

Major Launches This Month
cogwit Beta is Live
cogwit, our hosted SaaS platform, is officially in beta. It's Cognee-as-a-Serviceâbringing our AI memory technology to developers and teams without infrastructure overhead.
What makes cogwit special:
- Built on Modal's serverless infrastructure for rapid scaling
- Auth0 integration for secure, straightforward authentication
- Generous usage limits: 1GB of data processing and 10,000 API calls per month
- Clean, intuitive API key management
We chose Modal because it scales from zero to hundreds of containers based on workloadâenterprise-scale power with startup-friendly simplicity.
The beta is live at platform.cognee.ai. Sign up and start building.
Distributed Pipelines: From Hours to Minutes
We rebuilt our processing architecture to run across distributed containers.
What this delivers:
- 1GB dataset: from 8.5 hours to ~30 minutes
- Cost efficiency: up to ~81% savings vs. dedicated servers
- Scale: 100GB datasets process in a few hours instead of weeks
The system coordinates work across containers using async queues. Graph operations and embedding generation run in parallel with automatic scaling based on workload. Processing time scales with demand rather than a single machine's limits.
Improved User Authentication
We significantly strengthened authentication across both the open-source library and the cogwit platform. Logging in through Auth0 SSO (Single Sign On) with the Google account. After signing in you get your API key that's consistent all the time to use with cogwit.
Security is foundational to AI memory systems, and we've embedded it from the ground up.
Stability & Performance Improvements
We focused on production readiness across the stack. Highlights:
Reliability
- Enhanced error handling with graceful recovery
- Memory optimizations to improve stability on large datasets
- Better edge-case handling for unusual data formats and scenarios
- Pipeline reliability with automatic retries
Performance
- Faster graph operations via optimized queries
- Speedier embedding generation with better batching
- Reduced memory footprint for large knowledge bases
- Better resource management to prevent leaks
These improvements matter because our community is increasingly using Cognee in production environments where reliability is non-negotiable.
Case Studies: Real-World Impact
We completed three case studies that showcase Cognee's versatility across industries. These will be published over the coming weeks:
Construction Intelligence with Geometrid
One of our most complex implementationsâconnecting 3D building models with schedules and cost data for a Singapore construction tech company. We built a system that understands construction terminology across different systems and can surface risk areas early.
The challenge: Project managers had scattered data in different formats and couldn't answer simple questions like "Will we finish on time?"
Our solution: A GraphRAG system that understands relationships between building elements, schedules, and costs. Result: faster answers to questions that previously required hours of analysis.
Student Networks with Knowunity
Mapped 40,000 student connections across Germany's educational system, helping identify study partnerships and academic communities based on shared physical spaces and academic contexts.
The challenge: Students on the platform couldn't find peers who were likely classmates or study partners in real life.
Our solution: Network analysis combining IP address patterns with academic metadata to suggest likely study groups.
Mistery Project (Details Coming Soon)
Stay tuned
What's Coming Next
Here's what's coming next:
MCP Integration
Model Context Protocol integration will make your cogwit memory accessible from any MCP-compatible AI assistant. Imagine ChatGPT or Claude referencing your organizational memoryâthat's the experience we're building.
Local UI Integration
Seamless integration between local Cognee instances and cloud-based cogwit. Choose what stays local for privacy while leveraging cloud processing for heavy workloads.
Advanced Analytics
Better insights into how your knowledge graphs are performing, which connections are most valuable, and where your AI memory helps most.
Community Corner
Your feedback shapes every feature we build. Distributed processing improvements came directly from requests for better performance. Authentication enhancements were driven by teams preparing for production deployments.

Looking Forward
July was transformational. We launched our SaaS platform, solved a key scalability challenge, and demonstrated real-world impact across multiple industries. And this is just the beginning.
The combination of distributed processing power, enterprise-grade reliability, and proven applications positions Cognee well in the AI memory space. We're building the infrastructure for the next generation of intelligent applications.
The upcoming case studies highlight something important: AI memory isn't just about storing informationâit's about understanding relationships, anticipating outcomes, and providing insights that weren't possible before. Whether you're managing construction projects, connecting students, or personalizing customer experiences, knowledge graphs expand what's possible.
Keep an eye on our GitHub releases for the latest updates, and get ready for those case study deep-dives.
Happy coding!
