## Decision facts: cognee

- **Adopt for:** When evaluating Cognee, consider its self-hosted persistence capability and the extensive support it offers through multiple programming languages (Python, Rust, TypeScript). It uses vector databases to provide efficient

## Choose when

### Choose cognee if…

- License: cognee is Apache-2.0, Keras-TextClassification is MIT.
- Tags unique to cognee: agent-memory, ai-agents, docker, knowledge-graph.
- Also covers AI Agents.
- cognee ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
- - You are developing AI agents that require persistent long-term memory across different sessions.

### Choose Keras-TextClassification if…

- License: Keras-TextClassification is MIT, cognee is Apache-2.0.
- Tags unique to Keras-TextClassification: albert, bert, capsule, charcnn.
- Also covers Model Training.

## When NOT to use cognee

- - Your project does not require persistent memory storage, or your agents operate fully within short-lived sessions without the need for past context.
- - You are aiming for minimal setup overhead and prefer a cloud-based solution that requires less maintenance on your infrastructure side.

## When NOT to use Keras-TextClassification

- Last GitHub push was 754 days ago (dormant maintenance, Jun 17, 2024). Validate activity before betting a new project on Keras-TextClassification.
- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.
- Vector Databases: Don't reach for a dedicated vector DB under ~100k vectors; pgvector on your existing Postgres is simpler to operate.
