step 3 of 53 minyour first memorymake a memory from a conversation, open it, read and edit its pages, and meet the folders netti keeps inside it.
step 4 of 52 minask it anythinghow your ai finds what you need in your memory, how to ask so it finds the right thing, and what it means when it finds nothing.
step 5 of 51 mincapture without tryinghow memory gathers on its own — from your commits, from your conversations, and from one word in a terminal — and how netti folds it in.

your netti is born before your account is. it's the first thing you make, and it stays yours: one per person, the same creature on every screen you'll ever see it on.

1. start from the front door

go to innernet.live and press create yours, top right. a small card opens with a sign up button. press it, please.

the door: one button, and a way back in if you already have an account.
the door: one button, and a way back in if you already have an account.

prefer to go straight to the form? innernet.live/signup works too, and you'll meet your netti right after.

2. hold the cell

the screen goes dark and a single cell appears.

this is a cell. hold it until it opens, about three seconds.
this is a cell. hold it until it opens, about three seconds.

press it and keep holding, with your mouse, your finger, or the space bar. it grows as you hold. let go too early and it waits for you to try again. after about three seconds it opens, and your netti is there.

every netti is different. its colours, its shape and the way it moves come from the moment it was made.

3. meet it, name it

your netti, just born. put your name on it, or make another.

  1. 1press put your name on it and type your name. the line becomes this is your-name's netti.
  2. 2not quite right? create another makes a new one. go as many times as you like. the one you keep is the one on screen when you sign up.
  3. 3press sign up to save your netti.

4. make the account

the form opens right there. pick one:

the account form: one tap with google or github, or your email.
the account form: one tap with google or github, or your email.
  • begin with Google or begin with Github: one tap, done.
  • your email: type it and press begin. you'll get an email with a link and a short code. tap the link, or type the code on the page.

already have an account with that email? the page notices and turns into sign-in: your memory is waiting, welcome back.

5. walk in

your netti is here, sam. press begin. netti walks you through three short stops:

  1. 1home: where your spaces live.
  2. 2connections: pick the ai tool you use most and connect it. the next guide covers this in detail, so it's fine to do it now or come back.
  3. 3projects: netti hands you a prompt to copy. paste it into your connected ai and your first memory appears on its own.

you can press enter innernet at any point to skip ahead. nothing is lost; you can do every stop later.

on a phone?

wiring ai tools is easier on a computer. on a phone the first screen offers continue later on desktop. press it and we'll email you the way back in, and everything you do on the phone is already there when you sit down at your desk.

what just happened

  • you have an account and a netti that is yours alone.
  • your innernet is empty, and that's fine. it fills itself as you use your ai tools.
  • your netti starts small. it grows as your memory does. you'll see how in the inbox and the fold.

next: connect the ai tools you already use.
