Mneme: AI Memory That Actually Stays on Your Device

Ever notice how you have to retell the same context to different AI tools? You paste your whole background into ChatGPT, then do it again for Claude, then again for Gemini. It's ridiculous. Mneme solves this by building a memory layer that lives on your device and speaks an open protocol any AI app can read from.

The core idea is straightforward. Your memories stay encrypted locally, your keys never leave your computer, and any AI service you plug in can access that context without seeing the raw data or making copies. It's not Mneme's servers deciding what you can do—it's you. You pick which models get which memories. You decide if something's permanent or gets wiped. The open protocol means you're not locked in to one company's ecosystem either.

What makes this actually different from just dumping context into a prompt? It's permanent and portable. Build up memory with one model, switch to another, and the context travels with you. Add new tools later without starting from scratch. The encryption means even Mneme's creators can't see what you're storing, which is the opposite of how every major AI platform works today.
