Memos are the core unit of knowledge in Skald. Memo comes from the Latin word memorandum, which means “something to be remembered”. Memos can be documents, notes, code, articles, or any other source of knowledge. We’ve chosen to use a term that does not imply a specific format (like “page”, or “document”) exactly because memos can take any form you wish, as knowledge does. So whenever you want to push knowledge to Skald, you create a memo. We then automatically extract extensive metadata from it, so that it can be easily searched for and used as context for AI agents. Today, there are two ways to create memos in Skald:
  1. Using plaintext
  2. Uploading a document
On document uploads, we support PDFs, Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, and Excel spreadsheets.
