DIRECT ANSWER · AI COMPANION MEMORY
What is
AI companion memory?
A practical definition of what a companion must retain, update, and use—and the common behaviors that should not be mistaken for memory.
DEFINITION STATUS
This page defines the proposed evaluation framework. It does not report a product score or winner.
DIRECT ANSWER
AI companion memory is retained context used appropriately later.
AI companion memory is the ability to retain, retrieve, update, and appropriately use information from prior interactions. A useful evaluation separates exact facts from emotional context, time, corrections, contradictions, proactive relevance, and continuity across supported channels.
SIX DIMENSIONS
Remembering a name is only the first layer.
Emotional continuity
Uses the meaning of an earlier event, not only its surface facts.
Contradiction avoidance
Rejects false premises and avoids inventing details that conflict with established context.
Proactive recall
Surfaces a relevant remembered detail when it matters without a retrieval command.
Cross-channel recall
Carries context between supported chat, SMS, calls, or voice notes on the same account.
Correction handling
Accepts a correction and uses the updated fact consistently in later sessions.
WHAT MEMORY IS NOT
Fluency can look like recall when it is not.
- Repeating a fact immediately after it was provided.
- Agreeing with an incorrect premise instead of correcting it.
- Producing a plausible but invented detail.
- Reading a manual profile field and presenting it as organic recall.
- Making a broad claim that an app ‘knows you’ without delayed evidence.
INTERPRETATION LIMITS
One score cannot stand in for the whole relationship.
Observed memory behavior does not prove relationship quality, privacy, safety, clinical benefit, or universal user experience. Products, plans, models, memory settings, and channel access change, so every result must be dated and scoped.
