Claude Managed Agents launches cross-session memory, reducing errors by 97% after the first use at Rakuten

CryptoWorld News: Anthropic has added built-in memory functionality to Claude Managed Agents (cloud-based agent hosting platform launched on April 8), now open for public testing. This feature allows agents to learn and accumulate experience across sessions, eliminating the need for developers to build their own memory infrastructure. Multiple agents can share the same memory storage, support hierarchical permissions, and memories can be exported and managed via API, with all changes logged with audit trails. Rakuten’s long-running agents use cross-session learning to avoid repeated mistakes, reducing errors by 97% on first occurrence, lowering costs by 27%, and decreasing latency by 34%. Wisedocs employs cross-session memory in document verification to identify recurring issues, increasing verification speed by 30%. Netflix’s agents retain insights from multi-turn conversations, removing the need for manual prompt and skill updates. Ando uses memory to capture organizational collaboration habits, saving the effort of building infrastructure from scratch.
