awe

You've done it a hundred times. You spend an hour getting ChatGPT to understand your project — the stack, the constraints, the way you like answers formatted. It finally gets good. Then the chat gets long and slow, or you switch to Claude because it's better at this task, or you simply open a new tab tomorrow. And it all starts from zero. Again. Every AI you use has amnesia, and their built-in memory features don't help each other. ChatGPT's memory doesn't work in Claude. Claude's doesn't work in Gemini. Whatever you build up inside one assistant is locked inside it — and it isn't even really yours. awe fixes this with one move: it takes the memory OUT of the AI and puts it somewhere permanent that you control — the awe app on your own computer. From there, it goes with you into whichever AI you open next. BEFORE YOU INSTALL This extension is a bridge, not a standalone product. It needs the free awe app installed and running on your computer — that app is the memory. Start at awe.run. WHAT IT DOES Two things, deliberately simple. SAVE — turn chats into memory. On ChatGPT and Claude, click "Save what's here" and the conversation in front of you is stored in awe's memory on your machine. On any of the 22 supported sites, switch on background saving in the panel and chats are saved quietly as you have them — no clicking, no exporting, no copy-paste archaeology. Saving is off until you turn it on, and you control it per site. INSERT — bring memory into any chat. Press Ctrl+B and relevant memory lands in the message box of whatever AI you're using — as a normal draft you can read, edit, or delete before sending. Prefer to choose by hand? Open the panel, search your memory, tick exactly what you want, insert. Nothing is added invisibly, and nothing is sent for you. If you would rather not press anything, there is a switch for that — off until you turn it on. With auto-attach on, sending a message pauses for a moment, adds relevant memory to the bottom of it, and sends it for you. That one is awe acting on your behalf, on the sites you already have it switched on for, and it says so on the switch. That's the whole trick. Save from anywhere. Insert into anywhere. The memory in the middle belongs to you. WHAT THAT FEELS LIKE • Open a fresh Claude chat, press Ctrl+B, and it already knows your stack, your preferences, and the decision you made yesterday in ChatGPT. • Ask a brand-new AI a question about your own life — your dog's name, your coffee order, the client you keep mentioning — and instead of "I don't have information about that," it answers. • Retire the notes file of things you paste into every new chat. That file is what the panel is for, except it's searchable and one keystroke away. • Switch AI tools the moment a better one ships, without abandoning months of accumulated context. Your memory is not hostage to any one vendor. WHO IT'S FOR People who use more than one AI. Developers who moved to Claude for code but keep ChatGPT for everything else. Writers who draft in one tool and research in another. Anyone doing real work across assistants — which is exactly who loses the most to AI amnesia. People who start a lot of new chats. Long chats get slow, models get updated, old conversations rot. If your workflow is "new chat, re-explain, work, abandon," the re-explain step is the one this deletes. People who are tired of being a stranger. You have told five different AIs your job, your tools, your preferences, your kids' names. Once per tool, forever. Say it once instead. WHO HOLDS YOUR MEMORY You do. It lives in the awe app on your own computer — not on our servers. No account to create inside the extension, no subscription sitting between you and your own memories, no analytics, nothing phoning home. And nothing is shared without you. When you insert a memory into a chat, it goes to exactly one place: the AI you chose to give it to — as a draft you read first, or, if you switched auto-attach on, as part of the message you were already sending. Different AIs can know different things about you — you decide what each one gets, and whether it happens by hand. One small download, stated plainly: the extension fetches a settings file from awe.run listing which sites saving is currently switched on for, so we can turn a site off quickly if a site asks us to. It is a download only — it sends nothing about you, your machine, or your chats. ONE MORE THING, IF YOU WANT IT The awe app on your computer is more than a place to keep memory — it can do the work. Press Ctrl+Shift+Y in any supported chat and what you typed goes to your own awe to answer, instead of to the AI in front of you. The answer arrives in your draft. If you've moved on by then, a notification brings it to you rather than letting it vanish. It runs on your machine, it only happens when you press the shortcut, and it reads by default — letting it send, post or create anything is a separate switch in Settings that starts off. THE PANEL Click the awe icon in your toolbar and a panel opens beside your chat: • Here — the memory that fits the page you're on, one click to insert it. • Memory — search everything you've saved; tick what you want and insert it. • Ask — talk to your own awe without leaving the page you're on. • Inbox — a plain log of exactly what was saved and inserted, plus the results of tasks you asked for. • Settings — which sites saving is on for, pairing with your local awe, and everything else. SHORTCUTS (Mac users: these are the Control key, not Command) Ctrl+Shift+M — open or close the panel Ctrl+B — add relevant memory to this chat Ctrl+Shift+B — add memory visibly to the message box Ctrl+Shift+Y — hand what you typed to your own awe instead You can also select any text on a supported page, right-click, and choose "Send selection to awe memory." WORKS ON 22 AI CHAT SITES ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and 19 others. The full list is in the extension's side panel, under Settings, w…
