Yes, 100%. We have other products that we deploy in single-tenant and on-prem environments. We also support GitHub Enterprise, GitLab, Azure DevOps, Bitbucket, etc. there.
The setup is the same for Polygraph, so the on-prem distribution will be available.

Currently you have to send a support request. If you're an admin of the org, your data will be removed. A less cumbersome option is coming.
Sorry it's not clear on the website, but it is free and will always be free for OSS.
Firstly, I think it's a misunderstanding of where the truth lies. The truth is in the code and in the process that produced it. The code isn't out of date. The written documentation always is (to some degree). It's a map vs. terrain situation. Maps are useful, but they aren't a replacement for the terrain.
On top of that, when I review a coworker's code I also get their session, ready to explore. I ask questions about the decisions they made, and I can interact with their version of the code if something wasn't captured in the session. It's like getting access to their whole environment: the code, the agents' state, and everything else.
You just can't do that with a markdown doc.
This doesn't mean markdown docs aren't useful. They are useful. Maps are useful. But it's simply not the same thing.
Secondly, let's imagine it's possible to document really well every nuance of every decision made. This assumes everyone will do it, so it requires effort from every eng on the team. This is different here cause you get episodic memory without any effort :)
Polygraph knows what repos every dev (and therefore their agents) has access to. If a session touches repos you don't have access to, you'll only see the parts you're allowed to: PRs to a repo you can see, for instance. You won't see the logs or high-level descriptions, which can contain info you shouldn't see.
If a dev loses access to a repo, they also lose access to the sessions associated with it.
In other words, although Polygraph has one repo graph and one session graph under the hood, every dev has access to only a subset of each.
> Huh? How can it not see multiple repos? They're just directories.
Relevant repos need to be discovered. They have to be set up correctly (some worktrees, most clones), dependencies installed, and the relationships between them made clear, etc.. In a sense, once you've done all that, they do become directories. Turning them into directories, and doing it ergonomically, is the tricky part.
Consider scale: Take the repos you own plus the OSS repos they depend on. It's many thousands. A real team has more. That's a lot to deal with.
> The memory comes from the research, design, specification, and planning documents.
This isn't episodic memory. You'll have high-level documents you can reference, and they're useful for overviews. But only a tiny fraction of decisions ever make it into them. Most decisions get made in the act of implementing something. And the "docs rot, code doesn't" rule applies here too.
> Err... that doesn't sound safe. It just picks the repos (you have access to) and helps you plan the work. Has no efect on safety.
> AFTER the fact...
Yes :) But say I'm reviewing their PR. I can ask my agent why the PR ended up the way it did, and every decision they made along the way is in the session. It's "after the fact", but useful. It doesn't mean every conversation with a human being can be replaced by this :) but a lot of conversations can be.
