A new kind of AI memory

AI that remembers
the way you do

Vivid for last week. Hazy for last year. And the moments that truly mattered? Those it never forgets. This is what AI memory should feel like.

The core idea

Memory fades with time — and that's the point

Click any moment on the timeline to see how an AI using MemoryLayer speaks about that memory.

A few weeks
Under the hood

Seven mechanisms working together

Each one mirrors a real property of human memory — backed by neuroscience. 102 tests passing.

Temporal decay

Ebbinghaus curve with smooth age-at-encoding modulation. Childhood amnesia and reminiscence bump modelled.

❤️

Emotional anchoring

High-emotion memories decay 3× slower and have a permanent floor. The moments that mattered never fully disappear.

👁️

Fidelity degradation

Weak memories return a gist, not verbatim text. Six levels — vivid, clear, faded, vague, feeling, forgotten.

🔁

Spaced repetition

Each time a memory is recalled it is reinforced — just like studying. Frequently referenced memories stay sharper.

🌐

Spreading activation

Retrieving one memory primes related ones. Emotion-gated, embedding-based. Collins and Loftus 1975.

🔄

Reconsolidation

Weak memories drift toward current context on recall — capped at 3 drifts, original always preserved.

🌙

Sleep simulation

NREM replay adds repetitions. Episodic consolidation tagging. Poor quality sleep provides no benefit.

Applications

Where this changes everything

Any AI that interacts with the same person over time benefits from human-like memory.
