Complete guide to Mem AI
Getting started
Go to mem.ai and create your workspace. Unlike traditional note apps, Mem doesn't use rigid folders: you capture notes by text, voice, the Chrome extension, or by forwarding an email, and the AI organizes and relates them automatically by content, without you needing to tag or classify anything manually.
Use cases
Quick idea capture without manual organizing
Write or dictate a note and let the AI automatically relate it to similar existing notes.
Ask your own notes directly
Use Mem Chat to ask questions about information you noted before, instead of manually searching through hundreds of notes.
Structured voice notes
Dictate a note and have Voice Mode turn it into organized text with key points and tasks extracted automatically.
Task management built into your notes
Keep tasks within the same notes workflow instead of using a separate task app.
Advanced setup
- Automatic organization without foldersMem automatically groups similar content using AI; the more you use it, the better it relates new notes to existing ones.
- Smart SearchSearch using natural language instead of exact keywords, finding relevant notes even when the text doesn't match literally.
- Capture by email and Chrome extensionBesides writing directly, you can add notes by forwarding an email to a Mem address or saving web pages with the extension.
Tips
- Let the AI organize without forcing an old mental folder structure — it's hard to let go of control at first, but it gets better at relating notes the more you use it.
- Use Mem Chat to quickly summarize a series of long notes before a meeting, instead of rereading them all.
- Take advantage of email forwarding to capture information from external sources without copying and pasting manually.
- Voice mode is especially useful for capturing ideas while walking or driving, then reviewing the structured text afterward.
