# Niadra and Mem0 benchmark: latency, cost and cross-channel accuracy

> Seven measures with an open script and result files: context latency, tokens per turn, cost per thousand conversations, cross-channel accuracy, privacy, freshness and failures. Niadra and Mem0 in the same region, on the same model.

URL: https://niadra.com/en/benchmark

# Measured, not promised.

Niadra and Mem0 run side by side, in the same region, with the same extraction model, the same embedder and the same agent answering. The script is open and every number on this page comes from a published result file.

Run of 09/25/2026 in us-east-2, machine m7i-flex.large, 3 repetitions. Niadra 2026.09.25-1400-5d4d64b, SDK 0.1.5, Mem0 v2.2.0 (mem0ai 2.2.0). [Files of this run](https://github.com/ainiadra/niadra-sdk-python/tree/main/benchmarks/results/2026-09-25-6efee4)

### Context latency before the model call

Time until the agent has the memory in hand, p95 at each rate, measured by the client. The bar is the median of the repetitions; the whisker, the lowest and the highest. Lower is better.

    17,248 ms
    

Niadra's median p95 from inside the cluster is 78 ms at 10 reads per second, but it reached 2,623 ms in one of the three repetitions. Most likely cause: the same m7i-flex.large machine serves production, the harness and Mem0, and during the run Niadra's read service could not add replicas because the node's memory was fully reserved.

Niadra loses to Mem0 with the same ID on every channel (45.4% against 67.8%) and wins when each channel sends its own ID (45.4% against 31.6%). Most likely cause: the model that decides whether a session deserves extraction skipped short sessions that held the fact asked about, and Niadra's context carried the answer in only 46.4% of the cases; in identity (2.5%) and in order and time (0%) the fact almost never reached the context. Mem0's range drops to 19.4% in the third repetition, in which its search came back empty for most questions: the pgvector HNSW index filters by user after the approximate search, and the table already held the customers of the earlier repetitions.

### Tokens the memory adds to the prompt, per turn

Median per turn, counted with o200k\_base. Fewer cost less in your agent’s model and fit better in voice.

Niadra puts more tokens in the prompt (236 in voice and 314 in chat, against 165 for Mem0 with the same ID): its block always carries the customer header, the update time and the history summary, besides the facts.

## How we measure

-   Where: us-east-2, on the same machine class (m7i-flex.large) and database class (db.t4g.micro) that serve Niadra. Mem0 runs the REST server from its own repository, version v2.2.0 (mem0ai 2.2.0), in a pod of the same cluster, with pgvector in a separate database.
-   Same models: extraction with google/gemini-2.5-flash-lite on both, the same embedder (paraphrase-multilingual-minilm-l12-v2-r1) served by the same server, and one agent (openai/gpt-4.1-mini, temperature zero) answering the probe question with what each memory handed over. The judge (openai/gpt-4.1-mini) follows a published rubric; the exact check looks for the expected value in the answer.
-   Mem0 as its documentation recommends: one add() per exchange, one search() per turn with top\_k 10 and similarity threshold 0.1, and the prompt format of its examples. No parameter was tuned for this dataset. The rerank column uses the same extraction model as the reranker.
-   Identity: Mem0 does not resolve identity, so it runs in two scenarios, with the same ID on every channel (its best case) and with each channel’s own ID (when the agents come from different vendors). Niadra receives the same identifiers in both.
-   Dataset: 240 synthetic scenarios in Portuguese and English, from customer service and internal agents, across five industries. A scenario only counts when the agent gets it right with the whole history in the prompt and wrong with none; in this run, 227 passed that rule.
-   Open loop latency, the way turns arrive: 10 and 25 reads per second for 30 s, spread over 20 conversations, measured by the client. Niadra appears from inside the cluster, like Mem0, and also through its public address with TLS.
-   Cost: Niadra’s public price, models included; the extraction model spend of open source Mem0, counted from the usage the provider returns (Mem0’s servers and database are left out); and Mem0 Platform’s public plans divided by each one’s quota.
-   Every measure runs 3 times with new customers on each repetition. The page shows the median and the range between the lowest and the highest.
-   We do not measure LoCoMo, LongMemEval or BEAM: they are long personal conversation sets, publicly disputed, and they do not measure what a Niadra buyer buys.
