Hermes Agent
0b0671a3e3
On mobile (≤640px), .nav-back span{display:none} hid both spans inside
the back link, leaving an empty bordered pill shape visible next to the
logo — the 'broken little thing' users reported seeing to the right of ⚡ Hermes.
Fix: hide .nav-back itself. The hamburger menu provides the back navigation
link, so no information is lost.
Applies to all 13 sub-pages: memory, models, eli5, community, and all 9 compare pages.

<strong>Benchmarks are not directly comparable.</strong> LoCoMo (ByteRover), LongMemEval (Hindsight, Supermemory), LongMemEval-S (Mem0), and BEAM test different tasks on different data. Hindsight's scores come from an independently validated arXiv paper (Virginia Tech) — the 94.6% figure is from Vectorize's own homepage. Use as directional guidance only. As of April 2026.
