TL;DR: Learn how to build AI agents with persistent memory using LangGraph and Mem0. Get 26% better accuracy, 91% faster responses, and 90% lower costs compared to alternatives. Complete with working code examples and benchmarks. Note: You’ll need free Mem0 and LLM provider accounts to follow along.
The Problem: agents forget between sessions
Most AI agents lose context across conversations, which leads to:
- repeated explanations and poor user experience
- higher token costs and slower responses
- no long-term personalization or learning
Why LangGraph + Mem0
- LangGraph
- stateful graph for agent workflows and error handling
- easy integration with any LLM provider
- Mem0
- semantic, multi-level memory for users, sessions, and agents
- relevant memory retrieval plus pluggable storage backends
Together: LangGraph does the thinking, Mem0 does the remembering.
What is LangGraph?
LangGraph is a framework from LangChain for building stateful, multi-actor applications with LLMs. Think of it as the “brain” that orchestrates your agent’s workflow:
- State Management: Track conversation flow and context
- Graph-Based Architecture: Define how your agent moves between different states
- Flexibility: Works with any LLM provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.)
- Production-Ready: Battle-tested with streaming, error handling, and more
What is Mem0?
Mem0 (“mem-zero”) is an intelligent memory layer that gives AI agents persistent, personalized memory:
- Semantic Understanding: Stores facts and context, not just text
- Multi-Level Memory: User, session, and agent-level memory isolation
- Smart Retrieval: Returns relevant memories based on semantic similarity
- Flexible Storage: Works with Qdrant, Pinecone, Weaviate, or SQLite
- Open Source + Cloud: Self-host or use managed service at app.mem0.ai
The Architecture at a glance
How it works in three steps:
- search past memories relevant to the input
- assemble context with current message + retrieved memories
- generate response and save new memory
Implementation — Let’s build your very own social media manager AI agent
We’ll build a practical AI social media manager equipped with persistent memory. This agent will be capable of remembering customer interactions, preferences, and engagement patterns across multiple platforms—allowing it to deliver personalized, context-aware responses and strategies over time.
Prerequisites
Before we start building, you’ll need:
- Python 3.8+ installed on your system
- A text editor or IDE (VS Code, PyCharm, etc.)
- Terminal/command line access
- Mem0 account (free at app.mem0.ai) for memory management
- LLM provider account - either OpenAI or Google AI for the language model
Quickstart (OpenAI path)
- clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/kisinad/langgraph-mem0-ai-social-media-manager.git
cd langgraph-mem0-ai-social-media-manager
- install dependencies
pip install langgraph langchain-openai mem0ai python-dotenv
- add keys to .env
OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-proj-..."
MEM0_API_KEY="m0-..."
Get keys: Mem0 API keys, OpenAI API keys
- quick test
python test_basic.py
- run the agent
python social_media_manager.py
Prefer Google Gemini? Replace the install line with langchain-google-genai and set GOOGLE_API_KEY.

Final Thoughts
Building AI agents with memory isn’t just about adding a feature – it’s about fundamentally changing how users interact with AI. When agents remember, they become partners rather than tools. They learn, adapt, and improve over time.
The combination of LangGraph and Mem0 makes this accessible to every developer. You don’t need a PhD in machine learning or months of development time. In a few hours, you can build agents that rival the best commercial offerings.
