Know yourself better, in your own words.
Review preferences, goals, and patterns suggested by your entries. See the original moments and correct what is off. Memory requires membership and AI setup.
See what your entries bring together.
Small moments can hold useful context. Memory helps you review what they may suggest.
Start with what you choose to record.
A run you signed up for. A friend you want to see. A project you keep returning to. Memory draws on entries you save, not activity it monitors elsewhere.
Check the moments behind a suggestion.
Review the source entries before accepting a conclusion. Correct, freeze, hide, or remove what does not fit.
Review Memory inside the app. Connecting a compatible outside assistant is a separate, optional choice.
Useful context, with optional connections.
You can choose to share selected Memory topics with a compatible assistant. Check supported connections in the app; the illustration is not a compatibility guarantee.
Possible patterns, with the moments behind them.
Illustrative examples below show how a memory may connect to entries. AI can be wrong; review the evidence and decide what belongs.
Training for a 10k.
Drawn from 3 of your entries.
Sam is close, usually weekly.
Backed by repeated entries, not a contact list. The record explains why Memory believes it.
Oat-milk lattes, no sugar.
A small preference is useful when an assistant plans a day, books a stop, or remembers what you like.
Writes most on Sunday nights.
Some patterns are hard to see from inside your life. They become visible when small entries compound.
More context to review over time.
The counts below are an illustration, not a promised timeline or result. More entries can add context or contradict an earlier suggestion.
2 early beliefs
- Taste: likes oat-milk lattes - 1 entry
- Health: went for a run - 1 entry
5 stronger beliefs
- Taste: oat-milk lattes, no sugar - 14 entries
- Health: training for a 10k - 9 entries
- People: Sam, close and weekly - 22 entries
- Goal: ship the launch this quarter - 6 entries
- Pattern: writes most on Sunday nights - 11 entries
Memory shows its work.
Recurring details become plain-language beliefs, and every belief stays connected to the entries that support it. You can inspect the path from what happened to what Memory thinks it means.
Evidence before inference.
A single entry can suggest something. Repeated moments can add context, while contradicting entries may change the conclusion.
The most personal thing you own needs real controls.
A memory this personal is only worth building if you can see it, edit it, protect it, and take it with you.
Journal content is encrypted before sync. Your selected AI provider processes content separately.
Everything Memory learns is visible. Review any belief and the source entries behind it.
Freeze what is true, edit what is off, hide what is sensitive, or remove what does not belong.
Your Memory is designed to be a profile you can carry, not a memory trapped inside one assistant.
Give your assistant context - on your terms.
Illustrative conversation below; assistant behavior and compatibility vary. Choose the Memory topics a supported connection can read.
You choose what it reads.
Pick which parts of Memory an app can see - tastes, goals, people, projects, or identity.
On until you turn it off.
Disconnect to stop future access. This cannot erase information an assistant has already received.
Boundaries travel with it.
Anything hidden or marked private stays out of reach.
See every read.
Access history shows what each app looked at and when.
Your AI gets context, not your diary.
Your original entries remain a private record. Memory creates a separate, inspectable layer so an assistant can receive useful context without reading everything you wrote.
The journal stays whole.
Entries, photos, moods, and private details remain in the timeline where you recorded them.
Memory distills the useful parts.
Preferences, goals, relationships, and patterns become concise beliefs with links back to their evidence.
You decide what crosses the boundary.
Share selected parts of Memory with a supported assistant while keeping the underlying journal out of reach.
See what your journal can reveal.
Learn how repeated moments become visible patterns in your Memory of You, with the original entries still attached as evidence.
Frequently asked questions
What is memorist?
Memorist is a private pocket journal that quietly becomes a Memory of You: an evidence-backed picture of your preferences, identity, relationships, goals, and patterns, drawn from your real entries.
What is the Memory of You?
Memory suggests preferences, goals, and patterns from your entries. Conclusions can be wrong. Review the original moments, freeze an item, correct it, or remove it.
How does it work with my AI assistant?
You choose which parts of Memory a supported assistant can read, and you can turn access off. The goal is to help your assistant start with useful context without handing over your whole journal.
How does memorist build my memory?
It reads across the entries you keep and turns recurring signals into short, plain-language beliefs. The source entries stay visible so Memory can be inspected instead of blindly trusted.
Where does my Memory live, and is it private?
Journal content is encrypted for sync. Your selected AI provider processes content directly from your phone. If you enable outside access, Memorist holds a readable copy of the Memory topics you authorize. Disconnecting stops future access.
Do I need my own AI key?
Journal and Tempo need no AI setup. Memory requires membership and your own key for a supported provider such as Claude or OpenAI. Provider charges may apply. Apple Intelligence support is upcoming.
Is this a little creepy?
It should be the opposite. You write only what you choose, you see the evidence behind the memory, you own and can delete it, and you decide what an assistant can read.
Is memorist free?
Yes. You can start journaling for free on iPhone. Optional membership features can add premium capabilities such as Memory, export, calendar sync, and additional entry types.
Start with something worth remembering.
Start Journal and Tempo free, without an account. Add Memory with membership and AI setup when you want more context to review.
