GovTribe AI memories
Review, correct, add, and forget the reusable preferences, facts, and working context GovTribe AI can carry across conversations.
Open GovTribe AI, open the settings menu, and choose Memories to review what GovTribe AI can reuse for you. Memories are personal to the signed-in user and are available when memories are enabled for your account.
Memories are best for stable preferences, durable facts, and recurring work context that would otherwise need to be re-explained in future conversations. They are different from Full Conversation Recall, projects, User Files, and GovTribe records.
Use memories for reusable context
Do not use memories for one-time deadlines, sensitive personal details, raw contact information, or facts that already belong in a GovTribe record such as a pursuit, saved search, automation, opportunity, award, vendor, or file.
Open the Memories drawer
The Memories menu item opens a drawer from GovTribe AI.
| Area | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Summary | A Beta conversational summary of what GovTribe AI currently remembers and what those memories may change in future answers. This tab appears when GovTribe Credits are enabled for the account. |
| List | A table of active memories with strength, text, created date, details, and a forget action. |
If the Summary tab is not available, GovTribe opens the List view directly. The Summary tab can show a credit or availability message when the account cannot start the memory-summary conversation.
Use the Summary tab
The Summary tab starts a focused GovTribe AI conversation about your memories. It summarizes active memories in plain language, groups related memories when possible, and tells you how GovTribe AI may use them.
The summary conversation is hidden from the normal GovTribe AI conversation list. It is meant for memory review and editing, not for general capture research. Follow-up turns in this drawer focus on memory actions such as searching, creating, updating, or forgetting memories.
Use the composer at the bottom of the Summary tab when you want to manage memory in natural language:
Remember that I prefer opportunity reviews to include incumbent, likely competitors, set-aside posture, timeline risk, and a bid / no-bid recommendation.Update the memory about my company focus: we now prioritize cloud migration, cybersecurity, and data modernization work for civilian agencies.Forget the memory about avoiding opportunities under $5M.The Summary tab can also help with selected text. Highlight part of the summary to show quick actions:
| Action | What happens |
|---|---|
| Make a correction | GovTribe AI asks one follow-up question before changing the matching memory. |
| Don't mention this again | GovTribe AI asks whether you want to remove the memory, which may be relearned later, or avoid mentioning that topic or behavior in the future. |
Use the List tab
The List tab shows the active memory records GovTribe AI can use.
| Column or action | What it means |
|---|---|
| Strength | A visual signal for how strongly GovTribe AI should treat the memory. Permanent user-added or legacy memories show full strength. Learned or managed memories can be strong, building, weak, or fading. |
| Memory | The remembered preference, fact, or working context. |
| Created | When the memory was added. |
| Details | Opens Memory details with source, status, strength, reinforcement count when available, added date, last confirmed date, and next review date when the memory is lifecycle-managed. |
| Forget | Deletes the memory so GovTribe AI stops using it. If the same pattern appears again later, GovTribe AI may learn it again unless you ask it to avoid that topic or behavior. |
The list is sorted with stronger memories first. Within the same strength, older memories appear first so long-standing context is easy to inspect.
Understand where memories come from
GovTribe AI can work with three customer-visible memory sources.
| Source label | What it means |
|---|---|
| You added this | A permanent user-added or legacy memory. GovTribe AI keeps it until you forget it or ask for a change. |
| Managed by GovTribe AI | GovTribe AI created or updated the memory while helping you manage memories, usually from the Summary tab. |
| Learned from your conversations | GovTribe AI inferred the memory from recent AI work, repeated preferences, corrections, or reusable workflow context. |
Learned memories are designed to preserve how you work, not to duplicate GovTribe records. For example, GovTribe AI should not save an opportunity's due date as a memory because that due date belongs on the opportunity record. It may save a reusable preference such as how you want opportunity reviews structured, a recurring fit lens, or a correction that prevents future bad recommendations.
Choose what should be remembered
Good memories are durable and useful across future work.
| Good memory | Why it helps |
|---|---|
I manage capture for a federal IT services firm focused on cloud migration, cybersecurity, and help desk work. | Gives GovTribe AI stable company and role context. |
I prefer opportunity reviews to start with a pursue / watch / no-bid recommendation. | Shapes recurring answer structure. |
For pricing work, separate confirmed GovTribe evidence from assumptions. | Improves future pricing and evidence discipline. |
We usually avoid opportunities under $5M unless they are strategic agency entry points. | Preserves a reusable qualification rule. |
Avoid memories that are temporary, sensitive, or already stored somewhere else.
| Avoid saving | Use this instead |
|---|---|
| One-time prompt details | Put them in the current conversation prompt. |
| Temporary proposal deadlines | Track them on the pursuit, task, opportunity, or calendar workflow where your team manages deadlines. |
| Sensitive personal details or private contact information | Keep them out of AI memory unless they are truly necessary and appropriate for reuse. |
| Saved-search, automation, pipeline, pursuit, or tag configuration | Use the matching GovTribe record so the source of truth stays editable and visible. |
| Draft text, raw rows, or long lists | Save or upload a User File when you need reusable material. |
How memories affect future AI work
Active memories can shape new GovTribe AI conversations, selected workflows, and supported automation work when personalization is enabled. GovTribe AI still uses current GovTribe records, files, prompts, and permissions as the source for factual research.
Memories do not replace verification. When a response affects a bid decision, proposal submission, pricing assumption, or customer communication, review the underlying GovTribe records and files before acting.
Memory is one personalization input:
| Context source | Use it for |
|---|---|
| Memories | Durable preferences, facts, corrections, and working context that should carry across future work. |
| Custom Instructions | Stable profile and response-style guidance you want GovTribe AI to include broadly. |
| Full Conversation Recall | Letting GovTribe AI search prior AI conversations on demand when that setting is enabled. |
| User Files | Reusable uploaded, generated, or saved documents and artifacts. |
| Projects | Keeping related conversations and automations together. |
Review credits and availability
The List view is available when memories are enabled. The Summary tab and background memory learning can use GovTribe AI processing and may require credits to be enabled for the account.
Account owners can review account credit settings and usage from Credits. For a current rate schedule, use the Credit Consumption Table linked from the Credits page.
