Asking a question about something that happened months ago — and the record it builds while you are not looking.
Select Memory in the left bar and ask a question in ordinary language. AVAY searches every meeting you have held — the transcripts, and the decisions and commitments it took out of them — and answers from what was actually said.
Every quote under an answer is checked against the lines AVAY actually retrieved, and each one links to the exact moment it was said — select it to land on that line in the transcript. A quote that appears in no line is shown in italics and labelled AVAY’s words, not a quote, so you always know which you are reading.
Underneath, the answer says what it searched for and how much it could see: “searched 12 meetings from the last 90 days”. If your plan’s memory window leaves older meetings out, it says how many.
Use the follow-up box under an answer rather than retyping. “And who pushed back?” works there, because AVAY carries the conversation with it — and when the answer is already in front of you, it reuses the same evidence instead of searching again.
Switch to Find for a plain keyword search. It returns the matching lines rather than an answer, uses no AI, and does not count against your monthly allowance. Use it when you know roughly what was said and just want to get to it.
Memory is not only a search box. Four tabs along the top are built from what AVAY already took out of your meetings, and none of them cost anything to open:
| Commitments | Every action item anybody agreed to, grouped by owner, overdue ones first. Mark them done, or dismiss the ones that were never really commitments. |
|---|---|
| Decisions | Every decision with its reasoning, newest first, and a link when a later one appears to reverse an earlier one. |
| Open questions | Things raised in a meeting and never answered in one. |
| People | Who is in your meetings, and what each of them is on the hook for. |
Filters limits a search by date, by who was speaking, and by where to look — spoken words, decisions, commitments, summaries, chat, or text read off a shared screen.
An answer lives at its own address, so you can bookmark it, press back to it, or send the link to somebody. Copy puts it on the clipboard as Markdown with the quotes and links intact, Email it to me sends it, and Ask this weekly re-runs it on a schedule and writes only when the answer has changed.
Useful and Not useful under an answer are worth using. They are the only signal there is for whether search is working, and a rejected answer stops being reused for the same question.
