Alma by Olivares AI

Alma by Olivares AI is an advanced AI assistant engineered to solve a core limitation of standard AI chatbots: the complete absence of long-term memory. Unlike conventional tools that treat each interaction as a blank slate, Alma automatically extracts and retains facts, preferences, decisions, and behavioral patterns from every conversation. This persistent memory builds a continuously evolving understanding of each user, ensuring the AI never forgets your preferred writing style, the status of ongoing projects, or specific details shared weeks prior. Beyond memory, Alma introduces a unified workspace that integrates background agents, creative studios, and research tools under a single monthly budget. Users can deploy long-running research agents that operate for hours or weeks, generate images, videos, and music without managing separate subscriptions, and conduct deep web research that consolidates findings directly into memory. Alma is designed for a broad audience, from casual users seeking a smarter conversational partner to creators producing thumbnails and soundtracks, researchers tracking market trends, and power users who want to bring their own API keys or connect via MCP. It supports 16 languages, offers voice conversations and voice note transcription, and includes a long-form editor with export to DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, and PDF. Starting at just $14 per month with no hidden add-ons, Alma delivers a single, intelligent AI tool that truly remembers and works for you.

Persistent Memory

Alma automatically extracts and retains facts, preferences, decisions, and patterns from every interaction. This persistent memory ensures that the AI remembers your preferred writing style, ongoing project details, and specific information shared weeks ago, eliminating the frustration of starting from scratch in every conversation.

Background Agents

Users can describe a goal in plain language, and Alma plans and executes the task in the background for hours or even weeks. Examples include investigating a competitor for 30 days with daily briefs, monitoring the web for brand mentions, or generating weekly status reports from recent memories, all without requiring constant user attention.

Unified Creative Studios

Alma bundles image, video, and music generation into a single workspace under one monthly budget. Users can generate assets using Flux Pro and Leonardo for images, Runway Gen-4 for videos, and ElevenLabs for studio-grade music tracks, all without juggling separate subscriptions or facing per-feature add-on costs.

Soul Engine v2

This feature provides a complete cognitive framework for the AI, allowing users to define identity, worldview, style guide, anti-patterns, and communication modes. It goes beyond simple personality prompts to create a nuanced, consistent, and contextually appropriate interaction style that aligns with the user's specific needs and preferences.

For Individual Productivity and Personal Assistance

Professionals and casual users can leverage Alma as a personal assistant that remembers preferences, ongoing tasks, and project details across conversations. Voice conversations and voice note transcription allow for hands-free interaction, while the persistent memory ensures continuity in planning, scheduling, and information retrieval without repetitive explanations.

For Content Creators and Media Production

Creators can use the unified Image, Video, and Music Studios to produce thumbnails, short videos, and full soundtracks from a single prompt. The shared monthly budget eliminates the need for multiple subscriptions, enabling efficient production of marketing assets, social media content, and multimedia projects with consistent quality and style.

For Research and Knowledge Management

Researchers and analysts can deploy background agents to monitor trends, track competitors, or conduct deep web searches over extended periods. Findings are automatically summarized and stored in Alma's persistent memory, while the long-form editor allows for compiling reports and exporting them in DOCX, PDF, or Markdown formats without contaminating separate project contexts.

For Power Users and Developers

Technical users can bring their own API keys for compatible providers, connect Alma to their editor over MCP, or access the API directly. The VS Code extension with sidebar chat enables seamless integration into development workflows, allowing for AI-assisted coding, documentation, and project management within a familiar environment.

How does Alma's persistent memory differ from standard AI chatbots?

Standard AI chatbots treat each conversation as a fresh start with no recollection of past interactions. Alma automatically extracts and retains facts, preferences, decisions, and patterns from every chat. This persistent memory builds a continuously evolving understanding of the user, ensuring the AI remembers your writing style, project details, and specific information shared weeks ago, providing a truly continuous and personalized experience.

Can I use my own API keys with Alma?

Yes, power users on the Max plan can bring their own provider keys for compatible AI services. This allows users to leverage their existing subscriptions or preferred models while still benefiting from Alma's persistent memory, unified workspace, and background agents. Additionally, Alma offers an MCP server for integration with any MCP-aware client and a VS Code extension for developers.

What creative capabilities are included in the unified budget?

Alma bundles three creative studios under one monthly budget: Image Studio using Flux Pro and Leonardo for generating images with various styles and aspect ratios, Video Studio using Runway Gen-4 for short video generation up to 60 seconds, and Music Studio using ElevenLabs for studio-grade tracks up to 10 minutes. There are no per-feature add-ons; all usage is drawn from the same monthly USD pool.

Is my data secure and exportable?

Yes, Alma prioritizes data security and user control. Your data is exportable at any time, allowing you to maintain ownership of your memories and generated content. The platform is designed with privacy in mind, and users can manage their data, including memories and preferences, directly through the interface. Cancel your subscription at any time without penalty.
