kelemory

Everything you learn, in your own hand.

Write anywhere on one endless page. Loop what matters into an idea, and it keeps where it came from: the lecture, the paper, the conversation. Your agents can read your map and suggest. Only you write in it.

This page is a corner of one student's map. Move to look closer. Click an idea to recall it. Drag to write, and loop it to keep it.

Nothing recalled yet

From a line you wrote to something you remember

  1. 1

    Write anywhere

    One endless page, no folders to pick first. Pinch out to see everything you've learned; pinch in to one idea.

  2. 2

    Lasso it into an idea

    Kelemory reads your handwriting for a name. You say what it means, in your own words, and the idea keeps the ink it came from.

  3. 3

    It keeps where it came from

    The lecture on your calendar, the page of the paper, the photo, the chat. Months on, "where did I learn this?" has an answer.

  4. 4

    Links grow when you use them

    Each time you recall or connect an idea, its links thicken. The ones you leave alone fade, and come back for review.

Your agents write in pencil. You write in ink.

Connect Claude or ChatGPT once. They can read your map and a paper you hand them, and propose ideas, links and review questions. They can't change a word you wrote: there is no way to, not even a setting. To keep a proposal, you say it in your own words.

All you say to Claude on your phone:Check my Kelemory.

Claude from launch, on any plan. ChatGPT once Kelemory is listed in its directory. Claude Code or Codex on your Mac pick work up on their own.

Pale roofs, cooler nightsA white roof sends the sun back before it soaks in, so there's less heat to give off after dark.From Smith 2024, page 6. Proposed by Claude, written by you.

Bring in what you learn from

Slides, papers, photos of paper notes and passages land on the map as cards beside your writing. Select a passage to make an idea from it, in your words, with the page as its origin.

Explain it back before it fades

Ideas you haven't touched in a while come back as a short review. Answer in your own words, by hand or typed. Your answer is checked against the question's points on the iPad, and never leaves it.

Why do cities stay warmer than the countryside after sunset?A question Claude wrote for this idea

dark roads + roofs soak up sun all day, then give it back at night
