How Cloa Remembers
Why Memory Matters
Most AI assistants forget everything between conversations. Cloa is different. When you tell Cloa something about yourself, it stores that information in long-term memory and uses it in every future conversation.
Over time, Cloa builds a rich understanding of who you are — your preferences, your relationships, your routines. The more you share, the more helpful Cloa becomes.
What Gets Stored
Cloa's long-term memory tracks:
- Preferences — "I prefer window seats," "I'm vegetarian," "I like morning meetings"
- Relationships — "Sarah is my manager," "Mom's birthday is March 15"
- Routines — "I go to the gym on Tuesdays and Thursdays"
- Context — "I'm working on a marketing campaign for Q2"
Cloa extracts these facts from your conversations automatically. You don't need to do anything special — just talk naturally.
Teaching Cloa Explicitly
You can also tell Cloa to remember something directly:
"Remember that I'm allergic to shellfish"
"Remember that my partner's name is Alex"
"Remember that I have a standup meeting every morning at 9:30"
Reviewing What Cloa Knows
To see what Cloa has stored about you:
"What do you know about me?"
Cloa will summarize the key facts it remembers. You can also browse your memories in the app by tapping Menu → Memory.
Deleting Memories
You're always in control. To remove something:
"Forget that I mentioned my old address"
You can also delete specific memories by tapping Menu → Memory and selecting an individual entry.
Did you know? Cloa can recall preferences you shared months ago. The longer you use Cloa, the more personalized and helpful it becomes — like a friend who actually listens.
