OMEGA vs XTrace
XTrace is a Chrome extension that replays your browser conversations across ChatGPT and Claude. OMEGA takes a different approach: a local-first memory server for developers, with semantic search, knowledge graphs, and multi-agent coordination.
Browser extension vs local intelligence layer. Two different audiences, two different definitions of memory. Here's where each one fits.
The Key Difference
Local-first intelligence layer
A standalone memory server running on your machine. All data stays in a local SQLite database. Connects to Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client. Adds semantic search, knowledge graphs, and multi-agent coordination.
Browser memory extension
A Chrome extension that captures and replays conversations from ChatGPT and Claude in the browser. Designed for consumers who switch between AI tools and want context to carry over without any developer setup.

Which Should You Use?
Use OMEGA if you…
- ✓You are a developer whose coding agent needs to remember your codebase, coordinate with other agents, and build intelligence across sessions. All on your machine.
Use XTrace if you…
- ✓You switch between ChatGPT and Claude in a browser and want your conversations to carry over. No developer setup needed.
