SurrealDB Multi-Model Database and Agent Memory

SurrealDB Ltd was founded in 2022 and is registered in Altrincham, Cheshire, United Kingdom. It builds a single database that replaces the separate document, graph, vector, relational and time-series stores that modern applications and AI agents often stitch together.

SurrealDB stores documents, graphs, vectors, relational and time-series data and queries them with SurrealQL inside one ACID transaction. It runs self-hosted or as SurrealDB Cloud, fully managed in the provider and region the customer chooses, with Studio for schema and queries and MCP access for AI tools. On top of the engine, Agent Memory builds a knowledge graph with provenance from conversations, documents and business events. Users named on the site include Samsung, Verizon, Tencent, Walmart, ING and Saks Fifth Avenue.

• Multi-model engine: documents, graphs, vectors, relational and time-series data in one database.
• SurrealQL: one query language with ACID transactions across all data models.
• SurrealDB Cloud: fully managed service in the chosen cloud provider and region.
• Agent Memory: knowledge graph with provenance for AI agents, with a free sandbox.
• Studio and MCP: browser-based schema and query tool plus MCP access for AI assistants.
• Open SDKs: client SDKs and tools released under Apache 2.0 or MIT.

• Vietnamese SaaS and AI startups giving chatbots and agents long-term memory with a knowledge graph.
• Retailers building real-time product recommendations from graph and vector data.
• Telecom and field service companies powering technician assistants over manuals and asset data.

• Consolidates several data stores into one: Samsung collapsed three stores into one and Tencent nine backend tools into one.
• Saks Fifth Avenue serves 45 million recommendation queries a month.
• Verizon runs an AI assistant for 10,000 technicians on SurrealDB.
• Engine is free to self-host in production under BSL 1.1, converting to Apache 2.0 within four years.

AI agents need persistent memory that links documents, relationships and embeddings, pushing developers toward multi-model databases instead of several specialised stores. Software teams in Vietnam and Southeast Asia building AI products and SaaS look for simpler stacks that cut infrastructure and integration cost.
