v1.1 — Early Access

Stop training policies. Start training memory.

Cadenza is a mem‑α–native memory layer that plugs into your existing LLM agents and gives them RL‑level adaptation — without retraining policies. Cheaper, more stable, deployable on real hardware.

No credit card. No commitment. Be first to run RL‑class agents without touching PPO, reward models, or multi‑million‑step training.

The Problem

RL for agents is powerful — but brutal.

  • Compute-hungry. Millions of environment steps, GPUs running 24/7.
  • Operationally risky. Instability, catastrophic forgetting, reward hacking.
  • Hard to integrate. Doesn't play well with existing LLM agents & RAG stacks.

Most teams fall back to static prompts, hard‑coded rules, and naive vector stores — giving up on real learning.

The Cadenza Claim

Replace policy RL with a memory controller.

Instead of learning a new policy network, Cadenza learns how your agent should write, organize, compress, and retrieve memory — and uses that to drive better behavior.

You keep your existing LLM / agent framework.
You add Cadenza as a drop-in memory layer, RL‑trained once, generalizes across tasks.
Result: Agents that specialize, self-improve, and learn from experience — without a full RL research program.
Product

What Cadenza v1.1 actually is

A mem‑α–native memory layer: a small RL‑trained controller that manages structured memory for your agents and replaces most of what you'd normally use RL policies for.

01

Mem-α Memory Controller

A compact RL-trained policy network that observes what just happened, sees a summary of current memory, and chooses memory actions: write, update, link, compress, retire. This is the only part trained with RL, and it runs on ARM/CPU — no giant GPUs.

02

Structured Memory Store

Three-tier architecture: Core (short-term, high-resolution context), Episodic (full episodes with outcomes and rewards), Semantic (distilled summaries and patterns). Backed by a queryable database for full auditability.

03

Agent Integration Layer

Works with your existing agents. The agent calls Cadenza to read/write memory. Cadenza decides what to store and how. Downstream performance trains the controller — not your LLM weights.

Traditional RL for Agents

  • Design complex reward functions
  • Run PPO/GRPO on large policy networks
  • Burn through millions of steps & GPU hours
  • Hope the policy generalizes and doesn't break

With Cadenza

  • Keep your LLM and action logic fixed
  • Let Cadenza learn what to store, compress, retrieve, and imitate
  • Tiny controller, trained mostly offline on logs you already have
  • RL-like adaptation at a fraction of the cost

“Cadenza replaces heavyweight policy RL with a lightweight, mem‑α–style memory controller — giving you RL‑grade specialization at a fraction of the cost and complexity.”

How It Works

Four steps to RL‑class agents

01

Your agent runs as usual

Receives requests, calls tools, talks to users, interacts with environments. Zero changes to your core logic.

02

Cadenza observes & manages memory

After each step or episode: encodes the interaction, the controller chooses which memory ops to perform, writes and updates episodic + semantic memories.

03

Future decisions consult structured memory

On new tasks, Cadenza retrieves relevant episodes and summaries. Your agent conditions on rich, structured memory — not a dumb “last N turns” log.

04

RL optimizes the memory controller

Use your existing metrics — success rate, latency, revenue impact, user scores — as reward signals. Cadenza improves how it builds memory so agents get better over time.

Who It's For

Built for teams shipping real agents

Agent Platform Builders

Building multi-agent systems that need to actually learn from experience, not just retrieve docs.

Infra / MLOps Teams

Responsible for production agents; need learning and improvement without destabilizing core models.

Edge / Robotics Teams

Running agents on ARM or constrained hardware where full RL training loops are not realistic.

Enterprise AI Teams

Want task-specialized copilots and operations agents that improve with usage but must stay safe and auditable.

Advantages

Cheaper. More effective. Transparent.

No full policy retraining

Only the small memory controller is RL-trained. You avoid repeated end-to-end PPO/GRPO runs on huge models.

Log-driven learning

Train on logs and traces you already produce — conversations, episodes, feedback. No complex simulators needed.

Edge-deployable

Controller is small enough to run on ARM/CPU at low latency. Ideal for on-device agents, IoT, and low-power environments.

Better long-horizon behavior

Learns what to keep from long histories and how to reuse it, so agents handle long tasks and rare events better.

Specialization without overfitting

Memory adapts to each environment/user/domain. Core model stays stable; memory is where specialization lives.

Transparent & inspectable

Memory entries live in a structured store. Inspect why the agent behaved a certain way, which episodes it recalled, and what it forgot.

About

Built by someone who actually does RL + memory

Cadenza is not another “vector store with a nice UI.” It's built from first principles of mem‑α‑style RL for memory construction, memory‑augmented reinforcement learning, and real‑world constraints of ARM‑class hardware. If you've tried to bolt RL or long‑term memory onto your agents and it hurt, Cadenza is the piece you were missing.
