## Definition

**Web memories** is an opt-in feature in OpenAI's agentic browser Atlas that creates a passive, queryable record of the browsing journey — letting you ask the agent later about what it saw along the way. [^01cd26e3@handout]

In the channel's material on OpenAI's agentic browser Atlas, **web memories** is an *opt-in* feature that creates a **passive, queryable record of your browsing journey** — what the agent saw as you moved across the web. Later, you can ask the agent about what it encountered during that journey and get answers grounded in that record. [^01cd26e3@handout]Because Atlas provides the page you are viewing directly to the model, context flows without copy-pasting. Web memories extend that idea over *time*: instead of context existing only for the current page, the browsing journey itself becomes something you can revisit and query. The handout lists it alongside proactive suggestions as a feature worth exploring — something you choose to turn on, not something imposed on you. [^01cd26e3@handout]The related topic on **agent-native products and agentic browsers** frames web memories as an example of products rebuilt around agents that *act, remember, and personalize*: the browser does not just render pages, it retains a queryable trace of where you have been. [^topic-agentic-browsers]- **Web memories** = an opt-in, queryable record of what the agent saw during your browsing journey. - It makes past context available after the fact, extending Atlas's page-level context sharing over time. - It is an example of the shift toward products designed so agents can *act, remember, and personalize*.
