Memory

How Haruno remembers your work, and where that knowledge is kept.

What memory is

Memory is how Haruno carries what it learns from one conversation into the next. It remembers the durable things — how you like documents laid out, what your projects are called, who your regular clients are — so you do not have to explain yourself twice. Memory is on by default.

Tip
Memory keeps the details worth carrying forward, not a transcript. Haruno does not store a copy of every conversation in memory.

Turning memory on or off

One setting controls all of it.

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Find the Memory section.
  3. Switch Use memory on or off.
Note
The setting is read when a chat starts, so a change applies to your next new or reopened chat rather than one that is already running.
Warning
Turning memory off stops Haruno from reading or adding to memory in new chats. It does not delete what is already saved — switch it back on and your memory is there again.

Where memory is stored

Today memory is local. It is saved in Haruno's own application data folder on the computer you are using, and it stays on that computer. Every chat on that machine draws on the same memory, but it does not travel to another device on its own.

Cloud sync is opt-in
Sharing memory across a team means syncing it through Haruno's cloud. That is never enabled by default: you choose to, and turning it on means accepting our terms. Until you choose to share it, memory stays on your machine.

Memory and privacy

Memory is stored on your machine, but it is not hidden from the AI: its contents are included in the instructions Haruno sends to the model when it works on your behalf, in the same way the rest of your prompt is. See Security & privacy for how that data is handled, and turn memory off if you would rather Haruno starts fresh every time.

Memory and your plan

Every plan has memory. What your plan changes is how far it reaches.

  • Solo — memory covers just you, kept on your own machine
  • Team — memory shared with your teammates through optional cloud sync
  • Business — centralized memory that keeps evolving across your whole organization
Still coming
Shared team memory and organization-wide centralized memory are in development, and are marked "Soon" on the pricing page. Today memory works per person and per machine on every plan.
