Lore Haven — AI Forgets Who You Are. Every Single Time.

Every conversation with AI starts the same way: you explain who you are, what you're working on, and how you like to work. Then the session ends and the AI forgets everything. Next conversation, you start over. Worse — context you build in Claude doesn't transfer to ChatGPT. Switch devices and you start from zero. The tool that's supposed to save you time is wasting it on the same onboarding loop, trapped inside products that compete with each other.

Lore Haven exists because that problem is solvable and nobody is solving it. The idea: write down who you are once — your role, your projects, your preferences, how you think — in a portable document that works with any AI tool. Not locked to Claude, not locked to ChatGPT. Yours.

The product is a web app with a guided wizard called the Lore Builder. It asks plain-English questions ("What does a typical week look like?") and assembles the answers into a structured Lore document — 300-600 words, ready to paste into any AI tool's instructions. Five starter packs (Entrepreneur, Creative, Executive, Parent, Student) solve the blank-page problem for non-technical users who don't know what to tell AI. The Haven vault stores the Lore and saved prompts — all versioned, all exportable as plain text, all owned by the user.

The architecture pivoted significantly during design. The original plan was an Electron desktop app with a local MCP server. When Claude Desktop added remote MCP support, the blocking constraint disappeared — and with it, the entire desktop architecture. The current stack is cloud-first: Next.js on Cloudflare Pages, S3-compatible storage, Stripe billing. Simpler to build, better for cross-device access, and the only realistic entry point for non-technical users who won't install a side-loaded desktop app.
