Company use cases: what teams keep in shared memory

Concrete things companies put in Memocore, by team. The common thread: knowledge that people re-explain, that lives in someone's head or a buried chat, and that everyone's AI assistant should already know. Engineering: - Architecture decisions and why they were made, so the reasoning survives the person who made it. - Coding conventions and project standards - stored once, and every IDE assistant (Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code) answers from the same rules instead of inventing its own. - Runbooks and incident postmortems: what broke, what fixed it, what to check first next time. - The gotchas: the flaky test, the deploy step everyone forgets, the service that must be restarted in a certain order. Product and design: - Product decisions and the discarded alternatives - the "we already tried that, here is why it did not work" that saves a repeat discussion a year later. - Terminology and naming conventions, so specs, code and support all use the same words. - Research findings and user feedback themes. Support and customer success: - Policies and canned answers, and the edge cases that are not in the public docs. - A support bot built on a read-only API key that answers from your policies without shipping the whole handbook in every prompt. Sales: - Objection handling, competitor comparisons, pricing rules and what may be discounted. - Account context, so whoever picks up the conversation has the history. Operations, HR and onboarding: - The onboarding project: hand a new hire a project of shared memos instead of a week of meetings. Their assistant answers their questions from day one. - Internal processes: how to request access, how expenses work, who decides what. Across the company: - Meeting and decision records, so a decision is findable by meaning months later rather than lost in a thread. - Contractors and agencies: give them a viewer role on exactly one project, or a public link, and nothing else. - Customers and community: publish a project (documentation, a playbook, prompt conventions) behind a link so people can ask their own AI about your product. - Internal copilots and agents: mint a project-scoped read-only API key and give your own tools exactly the company context they need, with search-by-meaning built in and no vector store to run. The test for whether something belongs in shared memory: if a colleague would have to ask a person for it, or an assistant would have to be re-briefed on it, it belongs in a project memo.
