Cognitia AI
Context retrieval
How Cognitia reads your memory graph to ground answers — the engine behind chat and MCP, not a separate product surface.
How retrieval works
- Analyze request intent from the current conversation or MCP tool call.
- Search entities, temporal facts, behavioral signals, and semantic memory in the graph.
- Rank and format high-signal context — not raw chat history dumps.
- Return grounded responses with continuity across sessions and clients.
Example
You ask for a travel plan update. Cognitia retrieves destination preferences, budget constraints from Plaid, prior booking emails, and calendar conflicts from the graph — without you re-entering context each time.
A SURFACEContext retrieval powers the built-in assistant and authorized MCP clients. Users interact with memory through Explorer, chat, or external AI — retrieval is what connects them to the graph.
