Retain ingestion costs $10 per million tokens.\n\n**LocalGhost.** The server and Android app are MIT-licensed, with no telemetry libraries found. There is no agent API, MCP server or SDK; unpaired callers receive HTTP 503.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Hindsight\n\n1. Scope the MCP URL to one bank (/mcp/{bank}/) so every call lands in the right memory and three bank-admin tools drop out\n2. Use recall for lookups and keep reflect ($0.05 a call) for questions that need reasoning\n3. Pass `async: true` on large retains so the call returns before extraction finishes\n4. Treat HTTP 402 as out of credit and 403 as a key that can't reach that bank\n\n### LocalGhost\n\n1. Don't call a LocalGhost box. Every request without the paired phone's certificate gets a 503 that looks like an outage\n2. Reach a person's LocalGhost archive through the person and their phone. Nothing in wisp 0.0.3 opens it to an agent\n3. Read a 503 from a box as no certificate, a retired phone, a locked box or a down daemon. The response never says which\n4. Don't treat the README's list of what leaves the phone as complete. The app also calls Frankfurter, Wikipedia's summary API and Android's geocoder\n5. Run `ghost-cli ghost.\u003cname\u003e commands` first if an operator hands you a root shell on an unlocked box. It lists command names only, takes key=value arguments and prints JSON\n\n## Other comparisons with Hindsight or LocalGhost\n\n- [Cognee vs Hindsight](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cognee-vs-hindsight.md)\n- [Cognee vs LocalGhost](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cognee-vs-localghost.md)\n- [Graphiti vs Hindsight](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/graphiti-vs-hindsight.md)\n- [Graphiti vs LocalGhost](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/graphiti-vs-localghost.md)\n- [Hindsight vs Honcho](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/hindsight-vs-honcho.md)\n- [Hindsight vs Mem0 Platform + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/hindsight-vs-mem0.md)\n- [Hindsight vs Supermemory API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/hindsight-vs-supermemory.md)\n- [Hindsight vs Zep](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/hindsight-vs-zep.md)\n- [Honcho vs LocalGhost](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/honcho-vs-localghost.md)\n- [LocalGhost vs Mem0 Platform + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/localghost-vs-mem0.md)\n- [LocalGhost vs Supermemory API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/localghost-vs-supermemory.md)\n- [LocalGhost vs Zep](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/localghost-vs-zep.md)\n- [AnythingLLM vs LocalGhost](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/anythingllm-vs-localghost.md)\n- [GPT4All vs LocalGhost](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gpt4all-vs-localghost.md)\n- [Khoj vs LocalGhost](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/khoj-vs-localghost.md)\n- [LocalGhost vs screenpipe](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/localghost-vs-screenpipe.md)\n\n## Disclosure\n\n- LocalGhost is built by Anchor Terminal's founder. Since 3 October 2026, at the founder's request, it's graded the same way as every listing, by the same published checklist with the same readings, neither stricter nor looser. Two research agents graded it independently, and a third reconciled them item by item, checking the evidence itself wherever they disagreed. The review panel doesn't review it, and letme never picks it.\n", "meta": { "attribution": "Anchor Terminal (https://www.anchorterminal.com)", "docs": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/docs/", "generatedAt": "2026-10-05", "license": "CC-BY-4.0", "method": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/benchmark/", "methodology": "0.3", "openapi": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/openapi.json", "preview": false, "run": "2026-10-01", "runLabel": "October 2026 research run" }, "page": { "breadcrumbs": [ { "name": "Home", "url": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/" }, { "name": "Compare", "url": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/" }, { "name": "Hindsight vs LocalGhost", "url": "" } ], "description": "Hindsight has a score of 50.4 (D) against LocalGhost's 45.8 (E).
