Feature
AI Chatbot with Long-Term Memory
Does chatbrat.ai remember previous conversations?
Yes, for signed-in users. ChatBrat's humanistic memory helps your character carry your story forward. In signed-in chats, saved details, conversation summaries, and the relationship developing within that chat help shape future replies. If you turn on sharing, relevant saved details can also be recalled in other chats with the same character. Recall is selective and can miss details. Memory is free during the beta, and you can see and forget anything that's saved.
How it works
Facts are saved as you chat
In signed-in chats, chatbrat.ai picks out facts about you from turns that matter, like your name, your job, your preferences, and how you want to be treated, and saves them as memory entries for that chat and character.
Recalled when relevant, not dumped wholesale
Your name and identity details are given to the character with every reply. Other saved facts come back when your message relates to them, a couple at a time, so the character isn't reading a backstory wall every turn. Long chats are also condensed into summaries so earlier parts stay in view.
Memory can carry to your other chats, if you choose
Each new chat starts fresh until you turn on Cross-character memory in Settings, on the Privacy tab. With it on, relevant facts from one chat can come back in your other chats with the same character, including Compose stories. Trust and tension stay with the chat where they happened.
You can see and forget what's saved
The Memory button in the chat header lists what the open conversation saved. Choose Don't use in this chat to drop a fact from that chat, or Forget saved memory to drop it from your other chats with that character too. Your messages stay in the chat, and a summary that rewords a fact may keep it. Saved facts can't be edited, so to correct one, forget it and tell the character the right version.
Why it matters
An AI model can read only a limited amount of text per reply, so long chats lose their beginning and new chats start from nothing unless the app saves memory. Saved facts mean you don't have to re-introduce yourself to a character you've talked to before, and summaries keep a long story from losing its opening scenes.

Frequently asked questions
Does the AI actually remember between separate sessions?
Yes, for signed-in users. Saved facts stay available, and if you turn on Cross-character memory, relevant ones can come back in your other chats with the same character. Your name and identity details are given to the character with every reply; other facts come back when your message relates to them. Recall is selective and can miss details.
What kinds of things does it remember?
Your name and basic details, your preferences, and other facts you share, plus summaries of earlier parts of a long chat. Within each chat, the character also tracks how things stand between you, like trust and tension. Recalling specific shared moments from past chats is less reliable, and we're improving it.
Can I see or edit what it remembers?
You can see it and remove it. The Memory button in the chat header lists the open conversation's saved facts, and Don't use in this chat or Forget saved memory deletes any of them. Saved facts can't be edited; to correct one, forget it and tell the character the right version.
Is long-term memory free?
Yes. Saved memory is free for every signed-in user during the beta.
Does it work for guests?
Guest chats keep recent history in your browser so the character can follow the conversation, but nothing is saved. When you first sign up in the same browser, chatbrat.ai copies your most recent guest conversation into your new account.
How is this different from just pasting a system prompt?
A system prompt is static: you write it once and it never updates. chatbrat.ai's memory grows from your conversations automatically, capturing things you never thought to include in a prompt.
