-Durable agent memory you can trust. Build, version, and retrieve grounded context from a context graph.
-
-- Give agents **memory** that persists across sessions and deployments.
-- Reduce hallucinations with **grounded context retrieval**
-- Ship reusable, portable [Context Cores](#context-cores) (packaged context you can move between projects/environments).
+LLMs alone hallucinate and diverge from ground truth. [TrustGraph](https://trustgraph.ai) is a context system that stores, enriches, and delivers context to LLMs to enable reliable AI agents. Think like [Supabase](https://github.com/supabase/supabase) but AI-native and powered by context graphs.

+How many times have you cloned a repo and opened the `.env.example` to see the dozens of API keys for 3rd party dependencies needed to make the services work? There are only 3 things in TrustGraph that might need an API key:
+
+- 3rd party LLM services like Anthropic, Cohere, Gemini, Mistral, OpenAI, etc.
+- 3rd party OCR like Mistral OCR
+- The API key *you set* for the TrustGraph API gateway

+Everything else is included.
