Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Intangle
What is Intangle?
Built on advanced graph technology; Intangle is a memory system for you and your assistants. It gives your AI perfect recall across conversations, tools, and providers while keeping all your data under your control with full data visbility, deletion & export capabilities.
Do I need technical knowledge to use Intangle?
No. The web interface is simple for anyone: just create spaces, add memories, search, and chat. For connecting to external AI systems, we offer both easy remote connectors (works everywhere, minimal setup) and local MCP for more technical users to use with coding IDEs like Cursor, VSCode or other similar tools. Plus we're here to help if you have any difficulties.
How is it different from ChatGPT or Claude memory?
Siloed provider memory is limited in their capabilites and lock your data to one provider. Intangle works all compatible assistants and tools - all at once. Your memory follows you, not the other way around. You get full visibility and control over yourb data, export capabilities, multi-space isolation for different areas of life & work, effortless loading of instructions, behavior & memories for spaces AND encrypted data for privacy (even from us). Additionally, we are solely focused on (and passionate about) building the perfect memory system that stays in your control - no distractions, period.
Which AI assistants work with Intangle?
Intangle works with ChatGPT & Claude apps (web, desktop, mobile), Cursor, VSCode and ANY other system that supports MCP or Connectors. Remote connectors are a newer approach with minimal setup that works across devices and local MCP (only works on the device its installed on) for legacy support of most technical tools. MCP & Connectors are still an emerging space and one of our primary focuses is ensuring we can continue to allow you to connect your memory to any new compatible systems.
Does Intangle work with custom AI agents and tools?
Yes. Intangle works with any AI system through MCP (Model Context Protocol) or Connectors (streamlined, user-friendly MCP). We offer easy remote connectors that work anywhere with minimal setup, plus local (classic) MCP for a more expansive range of tools. You can configure instructions for agents in each space when they connect, we also provide a copy-paste system prompt to ensure your agents immediately know what Intangle is and how to use it effectively.
What are spaces and why do I need them?
Spaces are isolated areas for different memories: Personal, Work, Client A, Client B, Research Project, etc. Memories in one space never leak into another, so your AI doesn't confuse your personal life with client work. Perfect for for anyone juggling multiple project, roles or priorities.
What's the difference between memories and tasks?
Memories are general knowledge and information: facts, preferences, context, experiences. Tasks are actionable items with status tracking (pending/in progress/completed). Both live in the same space, so your AI understands relationships: "This task relates to that project memory." Think of it as knowledge plus workflow in one system. We have a simple interface for viewing and managing tasks in the Intangle App, however the real power comes from having one or more connected tools utilizing tasks. More exciting improvements to come with tasks and workflows.
Is my data encrypted and secure?
Yes. All data is encrypted in transit, at rest and at a user tenancy level. Your data isn't readily accessible to us or anyone else. You can export everything anytime in full JSON format with complete graph structure. For full details, see our
privacy policy.
How reliable and secure is the platform?
Intangle is built by a human-first team on a modern, enterprise-grade technology stack, with carefully considered system architecture and implementation, along with comprehensive testing at all layers of the system. We maintain professional monitoring, regular reviews of security, and strict code quality practices to ensure reliability and data protection.
What happens if I want to leave Intangle?
You can cancel your subscription anytime, no questions asked. Plus, you can export your entire memory graph whenever you want: all memories, tasks, relationships, and metadata in standard AI & human friendly JSON format. No gatekeeping, no export fees, no data held hostage. Import it elsewhere, archive it locally, or use it however you want. It's your data, period.
Why dont I just rely on context windows & compacting?
Context windows degrade quickly as they grow. Attention dilutes, performance drops, costs skyrocket - or the chat / workflow just crashes unexpectedly. Intangle uses intelligent storage and retrieval: your AI gets exactly the context it needs, as soon as it needs it. Result: better accuracy, faster responses, lower costs, and memories that persist forever how you choose them to. Context windows are never to be feared again.
What is hybrid search and why does it matter?
Intangle combines semantic search ("cat" matches "animals"), keyword matching ("dog" matches "greyhound dog"), and graph relationships ("John Doe" matches "Client Name") to find the right memories. Semantic catches intended meaning, keywords catch exact phrases, and graph traversal finds complex, nuanced related data. Result: you get exactly what you needed, always.
