Welcome to Fold — a holographic memory system for development teams and AI agents.
Fold captures your codebase, team decisions, and project history in a searchable knowledge base where any fragment can reconstruct full context. Ask natural language questions and get relevant code, decisions, and context back instantly.
Perfect for:
- Teams that need institutional memory
- AI agents (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf) that need project context
- Onboarding and knowledge transfer
- Finding patterns and previous solutions

Fold makes any piece of your project knowledge capable of reconstructing the whole picture — like a hologram.
Example workflow:
- Search: "How do we handle authentication?"
- Fold returns: auth code + team decisions + sessions where it was built + related security specs
- Result: Complete understanding in seconds, not hours
Developers: "Show me how we've solved this before" → Get code patterns, decisions, and context
DevOps: Set up git integration, configure LLM providers, deploy to production
Teams: Store architectural decisions so they don't disappear when people leave
AI Agents: Claude Code queries Fold to understand your codebase, patterns, and conventions before writing code
