MemoryPlugin can be used with any Chromium-based browser and with Safari on iOS and macOS.

You will find links to both the iOS (and macOS) apps and the Chrome Web Store on your Dashboard.

How to use the browser extension

Once you install the browser extension, when you open supported AI tool websites, you will see a round MemoryPlugin button at the bottom right of the page. If you click on this button, you will be able to see all your memories and switch between active buckets.

Depending on the platform you are using, you will see the button with a Quick Inject text on top of it, or you will see a smaller MemoryPlugin button near the chat input box as shown above.

Both these buttons do the same and you will see one or the other.

Injecting Memories

As of right now, the browser extension does not automatically inject memories into your chats. You need to press the small MemoryPlugin button or the Quick Inject button to activate MemoryPlugin for a given chat.

When you do this, two things are added to the chat:

  • Your memories from the chosen bucket in the MemoryPlugin window

  • Instructions for the AI on how and when to add new memories

Without this, MemoryPlugin is not activated for the chat and your AI will not be able to read existing memories or create new ones.

When you press the MemoryPlugin button, you will see text added to the chat input field.

This text:

  1. Instructs the AI about what MemoryPlugin is and how to use it

  2. Contains current memories from your chosen bucket

  3. Instructs the AI on what to add to memory, and how

Adding Memories

When you activate MemoryPlugin for a chat, we tell the AI how it can add new memories.

It looks something like this

to=memoryplugin&&memory=[memory text here]

As you continue talking to the AI, it’ll trigger a new memory addition in one of two cases:

  • It thinks something is worth remembering long term

  • You ask it to remember something

When this happens, you will see the round (bottom-right) MemoryPlugin button briefly show a tick to indicate it has detected and added the new memory.
