Memory in Optimizely Opal lets Opal reference relevant context from your previous conversations, so you spend less time repeating background, preferences, and working style. As you use Opal, it automatically captures key information and applies it to future responses, making each interaction more relevant to you.
What Opal remembers
Opal captures the following three types of information from your conversations:
- Personal information – Significant details about you, such as your role, organization, or important dates. For example, "I work at Acme Corp" or "My team is responsible for email campaigns."
- Preferences – Your stated or implied preferences, working styles, and patterns. For example, preferred output formats, communication styles, or tools you work with regularly.
- Explicit instructions – Information you ask Opal to remember or forget directly in conversation. For example, if you say "Remember that I primarily use Python," Opal stores this for future conversations.
How memory works in Opal Chat
When Opal captures a memory during a conversation, a notification appears in the chat. The notification does not interrupt your conversation.
When you ask Opal what it knows about you, Opal summarizes your stored memories and directs you to the memory manager to review them in full.
Memory manager
The memory manager gives you full control over what Opal knows about you within your current instance. Access memory manager from Opal Chat by asking What do you know about me? or going to Context > Memory.
From memory manager, you can do the following:
- View all stored memories.
- Edit a specific memory.
- Delete a specific memory.
- Clear all memories.
- Import memories.
- Turn memory capture on or off.
- Turn memory in chat on or off.
See Memory manager for details.
