We Built the Thing
Today, Memorie is live in beta.
It's the product we kept wishing existed — a way to capture and retrieve information without opening an app, creating an account, or learning a new system. You text a phone number. AI handles the rest.
Here's what it does, how it works, and why we built it this way.
The Problem We're Solving
Everyone has the same complaint: "I have too many apps and I still forget things."
We heard it from parents juggling school schedules and pickup times. From people with ADHD whose working memory runs out of space. From freelancers tracking client details across a dozen projects. From students balancing classes, jobs and deadlines.
The pattern was always the same: the moment that matters — when a thought hits, when someone shares a detail, when you realize you need to remember something — happens too fast for any app.
So we asked: what if the capture tool was something you already do, dozens of times a day, without thinking about it?
You text. That's the whole answer.
How Memorie Works
Step 1: Text Anything
Send a text to your Memorie number. No special format. No syntax. Just write like you're texting a friend.
- "Meeting with Dana moved to 2pm Thursday"
- "Jake's teacher is Ms. Rivera, Room 12"
- "That restaurant in Brooklyn — Lilia, Italian, need reservation"
Short, messy, quick. However you think is however you type.
Step 2: AI Organizes
Memorie reads your text and figures out what it is. A contact? A date? A reminder? A random fact? It categorizes, tags, and links related items automatically.
You never decide where things go. You never create folders or choose tags. The system builds your personal knowledge graph in the background.
Step 3: Ask and Retrieve
When you need something, text a question:
- "When's my meeting with Dana?" → "Thursday at 2pm"
- "What room is Jake's class in?" → "Room 12, with Ms. Rivera."
- "What was that Italian place?" → "Lilia, Brooklyn. Reservations recommended."
Natural language in, natural language out.
Step 4: Get Reminded
If you text something with a date or time, Memorie proactively reminds you when it matters. "Mom's birthday is June 12" means you'll get a nudge on June 11.
You don't set reminders. You just mention dates. Memorie handles the rest.
What Memorie Is Not
We want to be upfront about what Memorie doesn't do:
- It's not a project management tool. Use Asana or Linear for that.
- It's not a calendar. Keep your events on your calendar. Memorie holds the details around them.
- It's not trying to do everything. It does one thing — helps you remember — and it does it with the least friction possible.
Why SMS? In 2026?
People ask this a lot. In a world of apps, chatbots, and voice assistants, why text messages?
Because SMS is the only communication channel with a 98% open rate. Because you don't download SMS. Because you don't log in to SMS. Because SMS works on every phone ever made, in every country, on every carrier.
And because you already text. We're not asking you to build a new habit. We're making an existing habit more powerful.
Who It's For
Memorie is for anyone who carries too much in their head.
- Busy parents who track a hundred invisible details
- People with ADHD who need to externalize their memory
- Freelancers managing multiple clients without a CRM
- Students keeping track of classes, deadlines and room changes
- Anyone tired of forgetting the small things that turn out to be big things
What's Coming Next
The beta is just the beginning. Here's what we're building toward:
- Weekly email digests — a summary of everything you've captured, organized by topic
- Calendar integration — dates you mention automatically sync to your calendar
- Shared memory — let your partner or co-parent access the same memory system
- Proactive connections — Memorie will start linking related memories and surfacing them at the right time
We're building in the open and listening to every piece of beta feedback. The product will grow based on what real users actually need, not what we assume they want.
Try It
Update: Memorie is now open to everyone. If you want to stop carrying everything in your head, start your free 30-day trial.
Text it. Forget it. We'll take care of the rest.
