I wore a Limitless Pendant for 6 months, recording ~10GB of conversations. Then it got banned in the EU and I had 30 days to export before deletion.
The irony: the device promised "AI that remembers everything" but couldn't actually use most of my data. LLM context windows max out around 200k tokens.
6 months of transcripts = millions of tokens. The "AI memory" was just summarization of recent conversations.
So I built a local workflow with Claude Code to actually make use of the data:
1. Parse and structure transcripts by date/topic
2. Extract decisions, action items, and key insights
3. Build a searchable knowledge base with cross-references
4. Generate a CLAUDE.md file - portable context I can give any AI assistant
The CLAUDE.md concept is the most useful part. It's a structured file describing who I am, how I work, my preferences, ongoing projects. Now any AI I use
can read it and have context about me without needing my entire conversation history.
I wrote up the full prompts so others can do this with their own voice data (works with Omi, Plaud, or any export). The bigger realization: these devices
are architecturally limited until we get either infinite context or good local-first AI.
Happy to answer questions about the workflow or the technical limitations I hit.
