Glossary
Memory, context, and intelligence —
translated.
Tempreon speaks the same language as the rest of the AI memory world — plus a few words of our own. Here's how the industry vocabulary maps to the product, so you can tell what's the same, what's different, and what's layered above.
Industry term → Tempreon term
Comparing Tempreon to Mem0, Zep, Cognee, Personal.ai, ChatGPT memory, or Claude memory? Here's the dictionary so every apples-to-apples check resolves cleanly.
| Industry term | In Tempreon | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| AI memory / memory platform | Knowledge Vault + Core Imprint | The structured store of everything you've told your AI — plus the identity layer that captures who you are, how you think, and how you decide. |
| Memory types (episodic, semantic, procedural) | Instincts — Style, Process, Judgment | Patterns learned from how you work, organized by what kind of pattern it is. Your style, how you run a process, and how you make a call. |
| Context window / context block | Personalized context | The information assembled for each AI interaction from your Tempreon — so the model starts informed, instead of cold. |
| Knowledge graph | Your Network + Knowledge Vault links | Relationships between people, concepts, and projects in your work — mapped automatically from what you tell your AI. |
| Ontology / custom entity types | Domains + Agents | Scopes that organize different areas of your work (personal, work, side projects) so the right memory is in the right place. |
| Fact invalidation / temporal memory | Supersession | When something you said a year ago is no longer true, the old version is marked superseded — not deleted — so the system knows what's current and what was. |
| Memory layer / memory infrastructure | The Intelligence Forge | The full Tempreon — memory plus the learning layer that makes it compound into something that sounds like you, not like AI. |
| Context engineering | Dynamic context assembly | Building the right context for each AI interaction from your stored memory plus the patterns the system has learned about how you work. |
| Self-improving memory | Tempering & Honing | Passive learning from how you actually work (Tempering) and active refinement when you correct the system (Honing). Both sharpen the intelligence layer over time. |
| Personalized retrieval | Personalized search | Search that weights results the way you would — not just general relevance. What matters to you gets found. |
| Portability / model-agnostic | Bridges | One identity layer that works across Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more — so your intelligence follows you to whichever AI tool you're working in. |
