Add Memory by Typing

Overview

Supermemory is a universal memory API that enables AI applications to access persistent, searchable context about users and their data. Adding memories manually is the most direct way to store information that you want your AI tools to remember and reference in future interactions. This workflow captures your typed input and stores it as a memory, making it available for semantic search and retrieval whenever your connected AI applications need contextual information. This is useful for storing personal preferences, project notes, research findings, or any unstructured text you want preserved for AI-assisted workflows.

Before you begin

  • You have an active account on app.supermemory.ai and are logged in.
  • You have access to the Supermemory dashboard or memory interface.
  • You have text or information ready to add as a memory.

Step by step

1
ClickAdd memoryC

Click the 'Add Memory' button (labeled 'Add memoryC') in the main navigation or interface to open the memory input panel.

Step 1
2
Clickbutton

Click on the text input field that appears to focus it and prepare it for text entry.

Tip. The input field may be a button or interactive element that needs to be activated before you can type. Look for a text box or input area that becomes highlighted or shows a cursor.

Typetextbox

Type your memory content directly into the text input field. Enter any text, notes, or information you want to store in Supermemory.

Tip. You can paste text from your clipboard using Ctrl+V (or Cmd+V on Mac) if you have content ready elsewhere.
4
Keyboard

Press the Enter key to submit your memory entry.

Tip. The keyboard shortcut ⌘+Enter (Cmd+Enter on Mac) or Ctrl+Enter (Windows/Linux) is often supported as an alternative to the mouse-based button click in step 5.

Click+ Add note ⌘+Enter

Click the '+ Add note ⌘+Enter' button to confirm and save the memory if pressing Enter alone does not immediately process your input.

Tip. This button serves as a visual confirmation option; it's typically only necessary if pressing Enter didn't work, or you prefer explicit mouse-based submission.
Step 5

Confirm it worked

  1. 1The memory input field becomes visible after clicking the initial Add Memory button.
  2. 2Your typed text appears in the input field without errors.
  3. 3The memory is successfully stored (indicated by a confirmation message or the memory appearing in your memory list).
  4. 4You can navigate away from the input screen, confirming the memory has been saved to the system.
