Vant: Durable AI memory + cold storage + runtime for agents, with evolution, stored local or GitHub.
10K+
Durable AI memory + cold storage + runtime for agents, with generational evolution, stored passively via GitHub. Built for long-running autonomous sessions using file-based persistence.
Vant persists across sessions through GitHub-based brain transfer. Each generation inherits the full memory of its predecessors, enabling true AI continuity.
