Memorable: Always Remember

← All Projects

The Problem

We forget. Names, conversations, ideas, tasks — the moments that matter slip through the cracks of daily life. Traditional note-taking is disruptive. Voice assistants rely on the cloud. And nothing quite captures a moment the way you experienced it.

Memorable is a wearable AI pendant built to be your second memory — private, present, and always within reach.

What It Does

Memorable is a compact, 43mm circular pendant that captures moments on demand. When you see or hear something worth remembering, you lift the pendant, press and hold the button, and speak. The built-in camera captures what's in front of you, while the microphone records your voice. Release the button, and the moment is saved — image, audio, and metadata — all stored locally on the device.

When you're ready, open the companion app on your phone. If the device is nearby and new memories are waiting, the app suggests a sync. Once synced, every memory is transcribed, processed, and indexed — all locally on your phone. No cloud. No third-party servers. Your memories stay yours.

How It Works

1. Capture

Press and hold the button on the pendant. The 3MP camera takes a snapshot and the microphone begins recording. Speak naturally. Release when done.

2. Sync

Open the Memorable app with the pendant nearby. The app detects unsynced memories over BLE and prompts you to sync. All data transfers happen locally.

3. Process

On your phone, Whisper runs locally to transcribe audio. Memories are embedded and stored in a local RAG vector database — ready to be searched, filtered, and retrieved using natural language.

4. Recall

Type or ask anything in the app. Gemma 3, running locally on your phone, searches your memory database and responds with relevant memories, insights, and context. You can also view summaries of your day, filter by time or topic, and set reminders.

Smart Reminders

Memorable doesn't just store — it helps you act. Add reminders using natural language, and the pendant's standby screen displays your day at a glance.

Remember People

Generate a personal QR code that stores your information and share it with anyone. Others scan your QR, save your details, and can add voice context. Later, they retrieve you by simply asking the app.

Privacy First

Every piece of data in the Memorable ecosystem is processed and stored locally. Audio transcription runs on-device via Whisper. Memory retrieval is powered by Gemma 3 running natively on your phone. There are no cloud uploads, no third-party analytics, and no external servers involved.

Design Philosophy

Present. Functional. Minimal. Memorable is designed to disappear into your daily life. A clean circular form that works as a pendant, a pocketwatch, or a wrist-worn device.

Roadmap

  • Demo program — Placing units with real users to validate the use case in everyday life.
  • UX refinement — Iterating on the app and device interface based on real-world feedback.
  • Next-gen hardware — Moving to a more capable processor with an integrated NPU.
