Long Term Memory

Use long-term memory to carry context and preferences across conversations, so the AI Companion applies what it learned in previous sessions without you having to repeat yourself.

Unlike conversation history, which is the full record of a chat, long-term memory stores specific facts and preferences that the AI Companion can draw on in future conversations.

Permissions

To enable or disable long-term memory, your role needs the Configure AI system settings permission under AI Agents.

How Long-Term Memory Works

When long-term memory is enabled, the AI Companion saves notable context from your conversations — field preferences, population definitions, primary tools, and display preferences — and surfaces them in future conversations as saved context when relevant. It doesn't remember everything, only context that is likely to be useful later.

Long-term memory is per-user. Each user's saved context is independent and is not shared with other users.

For example, your saved context might include:

• Filtering stale devices to those last seen older than 30 days, excluding devices that never reported Last Seen
• Sorting inactive assets by Last Seen ascending (oldest first)
• Treating SentinelOne as your primary EDR
• Leadership-level briefing format

The AI Companion applies these automatically when relevant and tells you when a saved preference influenced a choice.

Updating Saved Context

To update a preference, say so in any conversation.

Enabling Long-Term Memory

Long-term memory is off by default.

To enable long-term memory:

1. In the top navigation, click the gear icon to open System Settings.
2. Go to AI Settings > General Settings.
3. Enable Long Term Memory for the AI Companion. This toggle is only visible when Enable Axonius AI is on.
4. Click Save.

Long-Term Memory vs. Conversation History

Long-term memory is separate from conversation history — the sidebar where past chats are stored and organized into folders. Conversation history retention is controlled by your Auto-Deletion setting, also under AI Settings. Long-term memory specifically governs cross-session context that influences assistant behavior.

When you start a new conversation, the AI Companion doesn't have access to previous chats, but it does have access to your saved context. To reference something from a past conversation, describe it in your message.
