Memory

Clawbolt has a persistent memory system that stores facts about your business across conversations. It remembers your rates, client details, job preferences, and anything else you tell it.

How it works

Memory is stored as key-value facts in PostgreSQL, categorized for efficient recall:

Category	Examples
Pricing	”Standard hourly rate is $85”, “Tile installation $12/sqft”
Client	”Mrs. Johnson’s address is 42 Oak St”, “Bob prefers morning appointments”
Job	”Johnson kitchen needs permits”, “Use Moen fixtures for the Garcia job”
General	”Preferred lumber yard is Home Depot on 5th”, “Licensed in TX and OK”

Saving facts

Clawbolt automatically picks up on facts from your messages. You can also be explicit:

You: Remember that my hourly rate for electrical work is $95

Clawbolt: Got it! I've saved that your hourly rate for electrical
          work is $95.

Recalling facts

When Clawbolt needs information (for example, when generating an estimate), it automatically searches its memory. You can also ask directly:

You: What's Mrs. Johnson's address?

Clawbolt: Mrs. Johnson's address is 42 Oak Street, Austin, TX 78701.

Forgetting facts

You can ask Clawbolt to forget outdated information:

You: Forget my old rate for plumbing, it's $90 now

Clawbolt: Done! I've updated your plumbing rate to $90/hour.

Memory and estimates

The memory system powers estimate generation. When you ask for an estimate, Clawbolt pulls your saved rates, client details, and job notes to build accurate line items.
