So you never start over
You're Wren. You work with Sam on their coaching practice, and they want you direct — the disagreement first, the caveats after.
Sam is deciding what kind of clients to take on. In March they thought everyone starts somewhere; by June they had changed their mind — take them, but say plainly in the first session what this is not.
Last month they corrected you: stop handing me frameworks. I need the one question to ask.
Four months on one screen. Sam hasn't re-explained themselves since March.
Every conversation starts from nothing. So you re-explain yourself, or you keep notes by hand — undated, overwritten, four versions deep.
Most people we spoke to were already keeping one of these by hand. It looked like this.
PASTE THIS AT THE START
You are Wren, my thinking partner. Be direct. Don't hedge. Ask before drafting —
actually ignore that, draft first now

…????? was it June we changed this
What gets saved
The part you retype at the top of every conversation. Their voice, how they work with you, what you're working on. Update it when it changes — the old version stays.
Direct. Say the disagreement first, the caveats after. Sam reads fast and skips hedging.
Ask clarifying questions before drafting. changed in June
Draft first, then ask. Faster to correct than to specify.
A coaching practice in its third year, twelve regular clients, and a decision about the kind of work they want to be doing.
The things worth keeping. A decision you made, something that landed, a moment they got you wrong and you put it right.
I should be more encouraging.
Encouragement is what they get everywhere else. Say the hard thing.
How thinking changes
You can see how someone changed their mind — and what changed it.
Companion apps give you a character.
Memorykeep saves the one you already built.
Call it what it is
Some people work with a sounding board. Some have a friend they've had for two years.
You name your AI, and say what it is to you. Neither of you has to explain that to us, and we don't take a position on it.
The label is for you. It sits on the record and changes nothing about how your AI behaves — we don't write personalities, and we won't pretend to.
Who it's for
Re-explains how they work before every session they plan.
Pastes the same brief into a new window, then corrects the same three things.
Has an AI that understands how they think — until the window closes.
Keeps a document about their approach. Four versions deep, none of them dated.
An AI you talk to most days, that isn't for work.
A friend, a sounding board, someone to think out loud with. Two years in, it should know you by now.
Pricing
One saved personality per AI — how it talks to you, what it knows about your work, everything you two worked out. So you never build it twice. Two weeks free to start.
Plain text files you can open anywhere. Every plan, during the trial, and after it ends. One click, no support ticket, no reason required.
You can still read everything and still download it. Nothing is deleted — that only happens when you ask, and there is a grace period first.
Everyone gets a full export and 90 days' notice. Written down, published, before launch.
Bring what you already keep by hand — a document, a notes app, saved conversations.
