Own Your Own Context
Your data. Your keys.
Your machine.
Memorandai is a desktop Knowledge Studio. Local-first. Multi-model. Anti-lock-in. AI that adapts to your own knowledge.
14-day free trial. No credit card required.
Your personal context is fractured across the cloud
ChatGPT remembers some things. Claude remembers others. Your notes app has its own fragments. Google, Amazon, Meta… the list goes on. Nothing connects or compounds between competing services, and each company keeps building higher walls around the pieces of you they've collected.
The name is the thesis
In Memorandai, you are the thing to be remembered: your context lives on your own device, opening the door for AI to remember you on your own terms.
AI remembers you now. Who owns that memory?
The cloud assistants keep their memory of you on their servers. Memorandai keeps it on yours — where you can see it, shape it, and take it with you.
Ask, get an answer, and it's mostly gone.
Most chatbots
It learns you — but the memory is theirs, on their servers.
ChatGPT, Claude, Mem.ai
Your files stay on your machine, but the AI starts fresh every time.
Obsidian, Msty, AnythingLLM
A memory of you that lives on your machine — one you can see, correct, and own.
Memorandai
Whether the AI builds a memory of you × where that memory lives.
No black boxes
See what your AI believes about you — and correct it
The cloud assistants independently build a memory of you on their servers. Memorandai runs the opposite way: the facts that shape every conversation are local Keystones — and you hold the pen.
- Approve, edit, or deny every keystone memory: own — and shape — your own context.
- Any keystones the AI infers on its own wait in Pending for your review — its guesses never quietly become facts.
- Each keystone carries confidence and full version history — you can always see how it got there.
The Memorandai Workflow
Like a recording studio for knowledge — materials come in, get refined with tools, and produce something greater.
Accumulate
Bring in everything — documents, notes, ChatGPT exports, Claude conversations, OneNote data, PDFs. Or create new knowledge directly.
Organize
AI-powered indexing, semantic search, keystone memories, and consolidation surface what matters from everything you've gathered.
Work
Bring multiple AIs to bear — Claude, GPT, Gemini, or local models. Analyze, synthesize, and produce on a visual Flows canvas.
Export
Produce persona capsules, context bundles, and knowledge artifacts that power AI applications and workflows beyond Memorandai.
Helios — the identity layer
An identity that travels with you across every model
Switch from Claude to GPT to a local model and you don't start over. Helios carries who you are across all of them — a single AI identity that gets to know you from every model you work with, and stays consistent no matter which one is running underneath.
And it grows on its own. Each night, the models you worked with reflect on your sessions in their own voice, and Helios weaves those perspectives into one identity that revises itself as your shared history accumulates. The sphere beside this is that identity made visible — every point of light is one of those reflections, and every sphere is unique to the person it grew from.
How Helios worksNew — Memorandai Go for iPhone
And it comes with you.
The free iOS companion puts Helios in your pocket — the same identity, on your own keys — plus capture tools that flow into your desktop archive, a spoiler-proof AI Book Club, and a small arcade of memory games. It pairs with your desktop over your own Wi-Fi, end-to-end encrypted, with no account and no cloud, while also serving as a local backup of your Memorandai Go data.
A workshop for the knowledge underneath
Memory is an imperfect device. Memorandai's aim is to help patch the gaps.
Local-First Architecture
Your data lives on your machine — like a hot wallet for your knowledge. We don't collect, harvest, or want your data. Anything routed to cloud providers travels securely via API under their terms, and isn't used as training data on paid provider tiers.
Learn more →Multi-Model Freedom
Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, or local models on your own hardware. Swap providers without losing your context. Never walled in by one vendor's moat.
Learn more →Visual Flows Canvas
A node-based workspace where you connect AI models, data sources, scripts, and tools into production workflows. Think Ableton for knowledge.
Learn more →Compounding Memory
Keystone memories, automatic consolidation, and semantic search mean AI gets better the more you use it. Context that grows, not evaporates.
Learn more →Anti-Lock-In Data Pipeline
ChatGPT exports, Claude conversations, OneNote, PDFs, Word docs, markdown — pull your history out of every AI silo and make it yours. Export in portable formats too. In and out, no cage.
Learn more →Built-In Local Inference
Download and run local GGUF models in a few clicks — GPU-accelerated when available, CPU-friendly otherwise. Limited feature set, but free for local-only conversations, with configurable tool access on models that support it.

What you'll need
Memorandai is a Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) application. You stay in control.
A PC or Mac
Desktop app runs on Windows 11 or macOS 11+ (Apple Silicon or Intel).
Your own API keys
Get keys from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and/or xAI. You pay providers directly at their rates — no markup from us.
Or skip the keys entirely
Built-in local inference lets you download and run AI models on your own hardware with a more limited offline-capable feature set. No keys, no cloud, no ongoing costs.
BYOK means your data, your costs, your choice. We never see your keys, never proxy your requests, and never mark up provider pricing. Learn more about BYOK in our blog.
