I Built a Full AI Platform with Persistent Memory — Here's What I Learned

Alma by Olivares.AI is a persistent memory layer for AI. It remembers facts, decisions, preferences, and behavioral patterns across every conversation. Think of it as giving your AI a long-term brain. What's new: Code Workspace — Upload repos or clone from GitHub. 8 AI skills: explain, refactor, review, test, fix, document, search, commit. Resizable 3-panel layout with file explorer, editor, and AI chat. Choose between Claude Opus, Sonnet, or Haiku. Video Studio — Generate videos with Runway Gen-4 Turbo and Gen-4.5. Plan scenes with AI, manage projects with resource workspaces, generate YouTube metadata (title, description, tags), and stitch multiple clips into one video. Global Conversation Search — Search across all your conversations instantly. Find that decision you made weeks ago in seconds. Conversation Branching — Fork any conversation from a specific message. Explore alternative approaches without losing the original thread. 10 Image Presets — Cinematic, Anime, Watercolor, Pixe
