# Memory

As alfred_ reads your email and calendar, it keeps a wiki of your work: the people you deal with, your projects and preferences, and things you ask it to remember. You can read it, correct it and add to it.

| You control | What's in it: correct anything by telling alfred_ |

## What it keeps

- **People**: who they are, how you know them, and your recent conversations.
- **Projects**: the work you're in the middle of, and the people and threads behind each.
- **Goals**: what you're working toward.
- **Background and facts**: your role, your company, and things you've asked alfred_ to remember.
- **Preferences, style and work patterns**: how you like to work and write.
- **Updates**: what changed recently.

This is how alfred_ knows that Dana is your contact at Acme, that the renewal is due in March, and that you prefer calls before 10.

## Adding to it

- Remember that Dana prefers calls to email
- Remember that Harbor Facilities pays on net 30

You can also bring over what ChatGPT, Claude or another assistant knows about you under **Settings → Preferences → Import memory**.

## Correcting it

Open **Wiki** to read any page. If something is wrong, tell alfred_ ("Dana moved to Northside in August") and it uses the correction from then on.

## Where it applies

What alfred_ remembers is the same in the web app, the iPhone app, by text, and in Claude and ChatGPT. Material you mean to share with a team goes in the [Team library](https://get-alfred.ai/docs/teams/team-library). See [Privacy and your data](https://get-alfred.ai/docs/preferences/privacy) for what's kept and how to delete it.
