Memory & Context
Crew has a powerful memory system that persists across conversations. It remembers your preferences, important details, and context — so you don't have to repeat yourself.
How Memory Works
Crew maintains two types of memory:
Manual Memory
When you tell Crew to remember something, it stores that information and recalls it in every future conversation.
Automatic Memory
Crew learns from your conversations automatically. As you chat, it identifies important facts, preferences, and context — and stores them for future reference. You don't need to explicitly say "remember this" for everything.
Conversation Continuity
Even in long conversations, Crew maintains context so it doesn't lose track of what you've discussed. You can have extended back-and-forth discussions without worrying about the AI forgetting earlier parts of the conversation.
Cross-Conversation Memory
Crew carries important information across conversations. If you mention your role, preferences, or key facts in one conversation, Crew can recall them in future conversations — even days or weeks later. This makes your experience more personalized over time.
What Crew Remembers
Personal preferences ("I prefer window seats," "I'm vegetarian")
Work context ("I'm leading the Q4 product launch")
Important people ("My manager is Sarah, my client contact is John at Acme Corp")
Recurring information ("My weekly standup is every Monday at 9 AM")
Custom instructions ("Always use metric units")
Telling Crew to Remember
Just ask naturally:
"Remember that I prefer dark mode in all apps."
"Remember that my team consists of Sarah (design), John (engineering), and Lisa (marketing)."
"Remember that my budget for the project is $50,000."
"Keep in mind that I'm allergic to shellfish."
Asking What Crew Remembers
"What do you remember about me?"
"What do you know about my team?"
"What preferences do you have stored?"
Forgetting Information
"Forget what you know about my previous project."
"Remove the note about my old address."
"Clear everything you remember about Company X."
Smart Memory Search
Crew doesn't just store memories as a flat list — it understands the meaning behind them. When you ask a question, Crew searches your memories by relevance, not just keywords. This means:
If you stored "I'm allergic to shellfish" and later ask "suggest a restaurant," Crew finds the allergy memory even though you didn't mention it
Related memories surface automatically based on the context of your conversation
The more memories you build up, the more personalized your experience becomes
Memory in Practice
Continuity Across Conversations
Conversation 1:
"Remember that I'm preparing for a product launch on March 15."
Conversation 2 (days later):
"How should I prepare for the launch?" Crew already knows about the March 15 launch without you mentioning it again.
Personalized Responses
If Crew remembers you're in San Francisco:
"What's the weather?" → Shows San Francisco weather automatically
If Crew remembers your dietary preference:
"Suggest a restaurant" → Filters for vegetarian options
Cross-Channel Memory
Memory works across all channels. Tell Crew something on Telegram, and it remembers on the web, Slack, WhatsApp — everywhere.
