+            Statewave is an open-source memory runtime for AI agents and LLM
+            applications. It records raw events as immutable episodes,
+            compiles them into typed semantic and episodic memories with
+            provenance, and returns ranked, token-bounded context bundles
+            that drop straight into a prompt.
+          </p>
+          <p className="mt-4 text-base text-theme-secondary leading-relaxed">
+            We built Statewave because the problem most LLM apps spend
+            engineering time on isn&rsquo;t which model to call — it&rsquo;s
+            remembering what was already said, decided, or learned. Prompt
+            stuffing breaks at scale, naive RAG returns embedding-nearest
+            instead of decision-relevant, and chat-history replay drowns
+            agents in noise. A memory layer with structure, ranking, and
+            provenance is infrastructure, not a feature, and it deserves to
+            be open and self-hostable.
