Alma is a cognitive memory and identity engine for AI conversations. Instead of starting every chat from scratch, Alma automatically extracts facts (Memories), conversation summaries (Episodes), and learned behavioral patterns (Procedures) from your conversations.

Alma by Olivares.AI is a sophisticated persistent memory platform that transforms stateless AI interactions into continuously evolving, personalized experiences.
Unlike conventional AI assistants that start fresh with every conversation, Alma automatically extracts and stores Memories (key facts), Episodes (conversation summaries), and Procedures (learned behavioral patterns) from each interaction, building an ever-growing cognitive profile that makes every subsequent exchange smarter and more contextually aware.
At the heart of Alma is the Soul Engine, a comprehensive cognitive framework that defines an AI assistant's identity, worldview, communication style, and behavioral guardrails.
By layering these elements on top of standard LLMs, Alma gives AI systems a distinct, consistent personality that evolves alongside the user's preferences and habits. The result is an assistant that feels increasingly personal over time rather than generic and transactional.
Alma integrates directly with popular AI development environments through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), connecting seamlessly with Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and any other MCP-compatible client. This means developers and power users can augment their existing AI tools with Alma's persistent memory capabilities without switching platforms or overhauling workflows.
The Context Assembly engine is one of Alma's most technically impressive features.
Rather than injecting all stored memories into every promptwhich would quickly exhaust context windowsAlma intelligently determines which memories, episodes, and procedures are most relevant to the current conversation and injects only those.
This selective retrieval system keeps prompts focused and efficient while ensuring the AI always has the context it needs.
