Memory & instructions

Teach the AI about your life once, instead of explaining it every time.

In mom-plain English

Most AI apps let you save facts and preferences about you, often called custom instructions, personalization or memory. Once saved, the AI considers them in every new chat, so it already knows you have a toddler, live in Switzerland and like short answers.

01 · Under the hood

How it works

  1. 01You write a short profile and your preferences in the app's settings, or ask the AI to remember something.
  2. 02The app quietly adds that information to each new conversation.
  3. 03You can view, edit or delete what it remembers at any time.
02 · Picture it

The note on the fridge for grandma

When grandma babysits, you leave a note on the fridge: allergies, bedtime, the favorite song, where the spare diapers are. You don't explain it all again every visit; the note does the work. Custom instructions are that note for your AI. Write it once, update it when life changes.

03 · In real life

Where you'll use it

Mom life

Family basics

Kids' ages, food rules and where you live, so suggestions actually fit.

Business

Your brand voice

Your business, audience and tone, so every draft starts closer to finished.

Everyday

How you like answers

Short and bulleted, metric units, Swiss shops, no jargon.

04 · Try it in 5 minutes

Your nap-time experiment

Let the AI interview you, then paste the result into your app's custom instructions or personalization settings.

Interview me to write custom instructions for my AI assistant. Ask me one question at a time, about 8 questions in total, covering: my family situation, where I live, my work or business, how I like answers (length, tone, format), and what I mostly use AI for.

When we're done, write a short profile under 150 words that I can paste into my AI app's settings. Leave out anything sensitive like full names, addresses or health details.
