Import

The Import studio funnels a folder of notes and docs into your memory in bulk. Point it at a directory and the team reads each file, distills the durable facts, and saves them — so a pile of local documents becomes searchable, connected memory instead of files you have to remember to open.

Turn a folder into memory. Where a mount lets you search files where they sit, import ingests them: it distils what matters from each document and folds it into your memory, so it comes back later through normal recall — no re-reading required.

⇪ Bulk ingest

Read a whole folder of notes and docs in one pass.

⇪ Distil, don’t dump

Extract the durable facts, skip the noise and near-duplicates.

⇪ Into memory

Saved as connected memory you recall like anything else.

⇪ You confirm

Importing is a deliberate step you approve, not automatic.

Open it any time — say "import a folder" or click the Open chip.

What it is#

Import is the studio for getting a body of local documents into Zimac’s memory. Instead of the team reading a file each time you ask, an import does the reading once — distilling the decisions, facts and context from every document in a folder and saving them — so the knowledge is there in recall from then on. It’s how you seed the app with everything you already have written down.

Importing a folder#

Point it at a folder and the team scans it, reads each file, and pulls out the durable facts — skipping near-duplicates so recall stays sharp. Because import writes to your memory, it’s a step you confirm in the studio rather than something that happens silently: you see what’s being funneled in before it lands.

Try saying

import my meeting-notes folder into memorybulk-import this folder of docs

Import vs mount#

Import and Files (mounts) are complements. A mount is a live, read-only window — good for looking something up where it lives. An import ingests — good when you want the team to remember a folder so it resurfaces through recall and connects to the rest of your notes. Reach for a mount to search; reach for import to remember.

What you’ve imported#

The studio keeps track of the folders you’ve imported — their label, path, file count and when they last ran — so you can see what’s already in memory and re-import a source when it has changed.
