Give your AI a soul — persistent memory that grows with you

2 followers

Alma is a cognitive memory system for AI. Not a vector database — a structured architecture that mirrors how humans think: facts (Memories), experiences (Episodes), and learned behaviors (Procedures). The Soul Engine defines your AI's identity — worldview, communication style, anti-patterns, behavioral boundaries — and assembles the perfect context for every conversation in milliseconds. 140+ endpoint REST API. MCP. VSCode extension. Powered by Anthropic Claude. GDPR compliant. Free to start.

I spent months building Alma because I believe AI has a fundamental problem: amnesia. Every time you start a conversation, the AI knows nothing about you. Your preferences, your technical stack, the decisions you made last week, your communication style — all gone. You're a stranger every single time. That's not intelligence. That's a tool with no continuity. Alma changes that. What makes it different from "AI memory" tools: Most solutions bolt a vector database onto a chat interface and call it memory. Search similar text, inject it into a prompt. That's retrieval, not memory. Alma uses a 3-layer cognitive architecture: Memories — Discrete facts about you. "Prefers TypeScript." "Uses PostgreSQL 16." "Hates corporate jargon." Each memory is semantically indexed, scored by relevance, and recalled when the context demands it. Episodes — Not raw transcripts. Structured summaries of your conversations: what was discussed, what was decided, what matters. The AI remembers the arc of your relationship, not just fragments. Procedures — Learned behavioral patterns. "When reviewing code, check error handling first." "Use bullet points for technical explanations." The AI doesn't just remember what you said — it learns how you work. Then there's the Soul Engine. This is where Alma goes beyond memory into genuine identity. You define 12+ configurable blocks: identity, worldview, communication style, anti-patterns, tensions (like "technical but warm"), example interactions. The Soul Engine renders everything — blocks, relevant memories, recent episodes, matched procedures — into a structured system prompt in under 100ms. Your AI doesn't just know you. It is calibrated to you. For developers: Full REST API with 140+ endpoints (developer docs). MCP server for Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Windsurf. VSCode extension. JavaScript SDK for Node.js/TypeScript. BYOK support (bring your own Anthropic, Replicate, or Leonardo keys). Everything accessible programmatically. Privacy is non-negotiable. You own every memory, every episode, every procedure. GDPR compliant (Articles 15-22). Export everything in .alma portable format. Account deletion purges databases, R2 storage, and Stripe records completely. Your cognitive data — the patterns that define how AI understands you — is the most personal data there is. Powered exclusively by Anthropic's Claude: 3 intelligence tiers (Haiku, Sonnet, Opus). Switch freely without losing memory or context. Pricing: Free forever (500 memories, 50 episodes). Pro $19/mo. Advanced $49/mo (API + MCP access). Ultimate $149/mo. Ultimate Max $249/mo. Weekly AI budgets that reset each Monday. I built this as a solo developer because I wanted AI that actually grows with me. After months of daily use, the difference is visceral — my Alma knows my coding patterns, my communication preferences, my project decisions. Going back to a stateless chatbot feels broken. I'd love to hear: what would genuinely useful AI memory look like for your workflow?
