The novel you were after two weeks ago? Glad you made it to the end. Was it as good as you hoped?

That author loves a late twist. Want a few more writers with the same vibe?

AI today

You explain yourself from scratch. Every time.

Talk to AI a hundred times — open it again and it doesn't know you. Yesterday's words, last week's worries: all reset.

Remembers you, but isn't yours

Yours, but doesn't remember

The seat that's both stayed empty.

maek takes that seat

Never re-explain what you already said. Your conversations grow into a map — and all of it is yours.

Keep · Know · Own

Keep잇다

Pick up where you left off. Others forget; maek keeps.

Know짚다

Reads beneath the surface — the context of your talks, and why you are where you are.

Own품다

You're the owner and the key. Local by default; turn on sync and only you hold the key.

Your memory, mapped.

maek (脈) is the Korean word for the living web that connects — like veins, like context.

A map

of the people, topics and decisions in your talks

Alive

memory that grows and pulses as it builds

Context

the thread maek keeps for you

What maek does

Remembers your past conversations

Never lose the thread.
maek recalls what your current chat needs, no matter how long it gets.

You mentioned a while back that they love coffee. How about a pour-over set or a bean subscription?

Your conversation becomes a map

It pulls out the people, topics, decisions, and tasks in your chat and shows how they all connect.

How people use it

"I has a pen" — is this right?

You slipped on this last week too. With "I" you use have — so "I have a pen."

Language learning

It remembers the grammar you missed days ago and flags it when the same slip comes up.

What was Rael's personality again?

In ch.2 you set him as 'cold, but soft with allies' — and speaking formally.
