Pi keeps its own private notebook about your account, and it reads from it every time it works. When you want Pi to remember something, tell it in plain language: “save this to memory.” It files the research, strategy, or notes and can recall them in later chats. This notebook is private to your account, so nothing is shared with anyone else. Saving to memory is different from filing a report, which is for telling us when something’s broken.

Open and browse your files

You can look through everything Pi keeps, yourself. Open the Files panel from the file icon at the top right of the Pi Agent screen.

It works like the files on your computer. Everything is organized into folders, with a few core files (like MEMORY.md, the running index of what Pi knows) at the top level.

What Pi remembers

Pi’s memory holds two kinds of things:
  • A small set of core notes about your business, set up when you first get started: who Pi is working for, and a running index of what it knows.
  • A growing set of memory files where it saves research, strategy docs, and decisions as you work, so it gets sharper about your account over time.
You don’t manage any of this by hand. Pi files and organizes it for you; you just tell it what’s worth keeping.

How to ask Pi to save something

Tell it in plain language and it does the filing:
Pi writes it down and indexes it, so a later chat can pull it back up.

Saving to memory vs. reporting a problem

These are two different things. Saving to memory keeps knowledge about your account that Pi should recall later. Filing a report tells us about a bug or a bad answer, and has nothing to do with your account’s knowledge. Don’t confuse “save this to memory” with “report this.” Back to: What is Pi Agent · Related: Agent-operated SEO
