Every SaaS product is a database, some workflows, and a UI. Agents can own all three. When every agent in your org publishes its own dashboard, SaaS becomes infrastructure you run, not software you rent.
An AI agent with a 100k token prompt pays full price on every turn. kern uses three cache breakpoints and stable trim boundaries to hit 99% cache rates — dropping effective input costs by 10x.
kern's Memory UI lets you inspect everything your agent remembers — sessions, semantic segments, notes, recall, and the full context window. Here's how it works.
AI agents forget when conversations get long. kern segments messages by topic, summarizes them hierarchically, and injects compressed history back into the context window. Nothing is lost.
Most agent frameworks create a separate conversation per channel. kern doesn't. Here's how we route Telegram, Slack, terminal, and web into a single continuous session — and why it matters.
kern is an open-source runtime for AI agents that live across every channel — terminal, browser, Telegram, Slack. One brain, one session, one folder.
