I work alone, why do I need shared memory?

Even solo, you use many different agents and tools that each forget everything between sessions. Glen gives all of them one memory, so the context lives in a store every agent reads instead of only in your head.

Do I have to maintain a database or notes system?

No. Glen is a managed MCP server. Connect once over OAuth or an API key and the memory grows automatically as your agents read and write it while you work.

Shared memory for solo developers

When you build alone, every AI agent you use is a brilliant amnesiac. Your coding assistant relearns your project's conventions every session; the agent that wrote your deploy script forgets why you chose that config; the one researching a library yesterday has no idea what it concluded today. You are the only person who remembers the decisions, the gotchas, and the half-finished context, and you carry all of it in your head across a dozen tools that never talk to each other. Glen, shared memory for AI agents, gives every agent you use one shared memory they read from and write to, so the context stops living only in your head.

Connect Glen as an MCP tool to whatever agents and clients you work in, your coding assistant, a research agent, a chat client, and each one gains a single capability that retrieves what you already know and records new facts in one round trip. The agent fixing a bug today can read why you structured the module the way you did last month; the agent you spin up next week starts already knowing your stack, your conventions, and the decisions you have made, instead of making you re-explain them.

Glen is org-shared memory, and for a solo developer your org is just you, which means everything you build, every fact any of your agents records, lands in one store that every other agent reads. You do not run a database, an embedding pipeline, or a notes system; the memory grows as a byproduct of working. And because it is shared across tools rather than locked to one, the context your coding agent captured is the same context your research agent and your terminal agent see. Connect once over OAuth or an API key, and as your projects grow, the memory compounds with them, so future-you and future-agents inherit everything past-you figured out. When you eventually bring on a collaborator, the same shared memory is ready for their agents too.
