Hey everyone,

Today, we’re introducing **Memory in Alter**, a way for Alter to remember the useful details from your work so you don’t have to repeat yourself.

🎶 [BOY - Little Numbers ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsyjS%5FvJfkw&utm%5Fsource=list.alterhq.com&utm%5Fmedium=referral&utm%5Fcampaign=alter-memory)🎶

(we tried a new format for the video, let us know what you think of it)

## What is memory?

Memory isn’t a transcript. It turns a conversation into a small, durable record, then recalls only what can help with the next answer.

For example, “I always prefer short answer.” becomes a Personal preference that can improve future conversations.

Temporary details, secrets, and sensitive information are skipped.

**Memory supports six types of useful context: facts, preferences, goals, decisions, recent changes, and lessons learned through repeated work.**

It also evolves without creating duplicates. If you change your mind, Alter replaces the current version.

> Every memory has a scope and a source.

Personal memories follow you across workspaces, while project memories stay where they belong.

You can manage Memory in your Settings

Learning happens after the answer, and Alter saves at most one useful memory per turn. You can turn on **Ask before saving**, inspect sources, forget anything, undo changes, or turn Memory off completely.

Finally, open a hub conversation and use **Memory Catch Up** to review the last 30 days of your chats and meetings, plus your current workspace, to find useful details you may want Memory to know.

### Learn more about Memory

[We have updated our documentation](https://docs.alterhq.com/workflows/memory?utm%5Fsource=list.alterhq.com&utm%5Fmedium=referral&utm%5Fcampaign=alter-memory) so you could learn more about Memory.

Memory is durable. Recall is temporary. Access is contextual.

Cheers,
