How it works

Useful context, with a clear chain back to the source.

Backstory is designed to turn scattered personal history into context you can understand, review, and carry between AI tools.

Gather what you choose

Bring together personal source material without changing the originals. You decide what belongs in scope.

Compile useful context

Backstory is designed to organize relevant material into a bounded Context Packet rather than an open-ended memory silo.

Review the evidence

Inspect citations, source coverage, exclusions, corrections, and limitations before anything leaves your control.

Share intentionally

Export a portable packet only when you are ready, then use it with the AI and prompt you choose.

A portable result

A Context Packet, not a hidden profile.

The intended result is bounded, source-cited context prepared for a particular purpose—not a permanent cloud identity and not an invisible model of who you are.

Corrections and exclusions remain separate from the underlying evidence. Retrieval helps locate material; it does not turn a guess into a fact.

Clear boundaries

What Backstory is not designed to do.

  • Modify or delete your original source material
  • Silently send private source content to cloud services
  • Present inference as source fact
  • Lock your context inside one AI provider

Privacy is not a setting added later. It defines the process.
