Gbrain: An Open-Source Personal Memory Agent
socialwithaayan · x · 2026-07-18
A user shared their experience with the open-source tool Gbrain, describing it as a free "chief of staff" with precise citation capabilities, rather than just a second brain. The tool remembers contacts, companies, projects, and decisions. It extracts content from meeting notes and documents, providing accurate source citations for every output. Open-sourced by Y Combinator President Garry Tan, Gbrain can be quickly installed and deployed via Hermes Agent.
