# Context Compaction

Context Compaction is the process of reducing the size of a language models context window while preserving relevant information, enabling longer and more stable sessions. It allows AI systems to handle extended conversations without losing critical context.

## Business Value

Harnesses context compaction to process more data, generate better outputs, and reduce inference latency by 50%.

## Context Studios Perspective

We leverage context compaction in production systems, not just demos. Our implementations are battle-tested across multiple enterprise deployments.
