Cognee
#467 most-usedGive your agents a knowledge graph built from your own data
Cognee is an AI memory platform that turns your organisation's text into a queryable knowledge graph. Connect it to Actionist and your agents can add call transcripts, documents, and notes to named datasets, trigger the cognify process to build a structured knowledge graph, and run graph-completion or RAG searches to retrieve contextually accurate answers grounded in your own institutional memory — not a generic model.
Eliminates manual work. Agents eliminate the manual search through historical documents, call records, and policy libraries that knowledge workers perform before every decision — replacing fragmented search with a single structured memory query.
What your Cognee agent runs on autopilot
A week of scheduled jobs your Actionist agent will execute on your behalf.
Cognee × every other app you use
End-to-end automations that span multiple apps — each one a real business outcome.
Knowledge-grounded ticket reply with approval gate
When a new support ticket arrives, the agent searches the support knowledge base and product documentation simultaneously in Cognee, combines the two most relevant results into a draft reply, and posts it for human approval in Slack before sending. Support staff review a pre-researched answer instead of starting from scratch.
Time saved for your team — every week, on autopilot
Savings
What your team gets back — two angles: what you stop doing manually, and what that's worth.
What you do manually today
What your agent runs for you
- Sales25 min / weekManual CRM digging before each call
Reps manually scroll through CRM notes, email history, and saved documents to piece together account context before a renewal call — often incomplete and always time-consuming.
Sales Agent0 minAgent queries call memory graph before every renewalBefore a renewal call, the sales agent searches years of call transcripts and playbooks in Cognee and delivers a pre-call brief to the rep's Slack 60 minutes before the call starts.
- Marketing30 min / weekManual content deduplication and research
Writers search through past published content to avoid repeating angles, then separately review customer feedback documents — a process that is often skipped under deadline pressure.
Marketing Agent0 minAgent checks brand memory before every briefWhen a new content brief is created, the marketing agent queries Cognee for every past angle on that topic and every relevant customer signal, enriching the brief before the writer opens it.
- Customer Support22 min / weekManual search through past ticket history
Support agents search help desk history and product docs manually for each complex ticket — inconsistent retrieval quality and significant research time before a reply can be drafted.
Customer Support Agent0 minAgent retrieves resolution from support knowledge graphWhen a ticket arrives, the support agent searches Cognee's knowledge graph for the closest matching past resolution and product documentation, posting a pre-researched draft for agent review within about a minute.
- Human Resources40 min / weekManual policy document lookup per query
HR staff search through shared drives and policy documents to answer each employee question — 10 minutes per query, multiplied across dozens of questions per week.
Human Resources Agent0 minAgent answers policy questions from Cognee memoryWhen an employee asks an HR question in Slack, the HR agent retrieves the relevant policy section from Cognee and replies in the thread with the policy name and clause — within about a minute.
- Finance35 min / weekManual contract cross-reference during invoice review
Finance staff manually compare invoice terms against vendor contracts and procurement policy documents during review cycles — a slow, error-prone process across high volumes of invoices.
Finance Agent0 minAgent traces obligation chains through the compliance graphThe finance agent searches the contracts and policy knowledge graph to identify obligation conflicts at invoice review time, surfacing chain-of-thought reasoning across multiple documents automatically.
- Operations60 min / weekManual knowledge base maintenance
Knowledge base managers manually upload documents, tag them, and keep search indexes current across multiple tools — a full-time curation burden that still leaves information stale.
Operations Agent0 minAgent runs coordinated weekly knowledge graph refreshThe operations agent batches all new content into Cognee datasets and triggers a single coordinated cognify run weekly, so every department's agents are querying current memory without manual curation.
- Legal45 min / weekManual contract review against regulatory library
Legal counsel manually compares new contract clauses against a regulatory reference library and past agreements — a time-intensive review that can delay contract execution by days.
Legal Agent0 minAgent ingests contracts and checks compliance on arrivalWhen a new contract is added, the legal agent ingests it into Cognee and searches the regulatory knowledge graph for conflicts immediately, flagging issues before the contract moves to signature.
