AIVA for Memory

An AI thatactually remembers.

A normal chatbot forgets when you close the tab. AIVA keeps four kinds of memory — durable facts, workflow recipes, live context, and behavior rules — so it knows you, gets faster over time, and never makes you repeat yourself.

What AIVA can do

Concrete help with Memory.

Remember who you are

Long-term facts: your preferences, the important people in your life, your projects, and anything you’ve told it to keep.

Learn how you work

Workflow recipes: when AIVA nails a task, it saves the shape of it — the tools, the order, the inputs — and reuses it next time, getting faster and more consistent.

Track the live thread

Live context: open loops (promises and follow-ups), your current focus, and pending approvals — what makes it helpful right now, not just in general.

Follow your rules

Behavior rules: conventions like “don’t summarize at the end of every reply.” They evolve from your corrections, with the higher-stakes ones waiting for your sign-off.

Example prompts

Just say it in plain language.

Remember that I prefer Eastern Time for everything.

What do you remember about the Beacon project?

Pin that I’m vegetarian.

That’s outdated — Atlas shipped. The current project is Beacon.

Forget the inbox-triage recipe from last week — it was bad.

What do you remember about me?

Actions available

The tools AIVA actually has.

Remember

Save a durable fact you tell it, or that it judges worth keeping.

Recall

Answer “what do you remember about…” honestly.

Pin

Mark a memory or recipe as always-consider.

Correct

Fix a wrong or stale memory.

Forget

Delete a memory or recipe entirely.

Permission model

You stay in control of every consequential action.

Read-only work happens silently. Anything that changes the world waits for your approval — and destructive actions always ask prominently.

Safe — does silently

  • Recall and report what it remembers
  • Save small durable facts worth keeping

Asks first

  • Promoting higher-stakes behavior-rule changes (held for sign-off in Research Reviews)

Always asks

  • A full memory reset or wiping the data directory

Common workflows

How people put it to work.

01

Selective by design

AIVA keeps the small facts that matter and lets idle small talk and one-off details fall away, so it doesn’t drown in noise.

02

Recipes that compound

The more you use AIVA, the more recipes it banks — and the faster routine work gets.

03

You stay in control

Pin, correct, or forget anything by just saying so; ask “is this saved?” and AIVA answers straight.

Without your approval, AIVA won’t

No surprises.

These never happen on their own. AIVA drafts and asks; you decide.

  • Promote higher-stakes behavior-rule changes (these wait for your sign-off)
  • Bulk-import a connected app’s data into memory
  • Reset all your memory

Local-first notes

Your data, on your machine.

In Local mode, memory lives on your Mac in AIVA’s data directory.

Connected-app content stays in those apps — AIVA queries them and only keeps small facts you’d want kept.

Forget anything, reset a topic, or wipe the whole data directory for a clean slate.

Built-in app

AIVA for Contacts

AIVA builds a deduplicated contact book from your email, calendar, Slack, and GitHub — with relationship context, identities across channels, and the history that makes “when did I last talk to Sam?” a one-line answer.

Built-in app

AIVA for Loops

Loops are AIVA’s recurring schedules — morning briefs, weekly wrap-ups, periodic checks. Describe them in plain language; AIVA handles the cron, the timezone, and what to do when your Mac was asleep.

Core feature

AIVA for Voice

AIVA listens and speaks — free with the Mac’s built-in voices, or richer with OpenAI or ElevenLabs. Five activation modes, natural interruption, and follow-up listening make it feel like a conversation, not a command line.
