Smart Memory
Use Smart Memory to fact-check text with your selected memory document and reusable prompts.
Smart Memory checks text against a reference document you choose, such as a style guide, product sheet, or fact list. The reference is a Google Doc, and it can hold up to 250,000 characters.
Open Smart Memory#
- Sidebar:
Extensions>Text To Table Converter>⚡ Launch Sidebar, then choose Smart Memory under More tools. - Menu (Docs, Sheets, Slides):
Extensions>Text To Table Converter>Smart Memory>Select Document,View Selected Document, orMore Options in Sidebar...
Typical workflow#
- Open Smart Memory and choose your reference Google Doc.
- To fact-check, select the text in your file and run Fact-Check. It uses your current selection and asks you to select text first if nothing is selected.
- The result shows a verdict (Consistent, Contradictory, Partial Match, or Not Found in Memory) with an explanation and the matching sources.
- For anything else, type an instruction in the box and run Custom Prompt. It answers using your reference document.
- Click Copy Response to reuse the answer.
Manage the reference document#
- The sidebar shows how full it is, for example
Memory: 12,400 / 250,000 chars. When it is full, remove content or choose another document. - The open icon opens the document in a new tab so you can edit it.
- The trash icon unlinks the document from Smart Memory. The document itself is not deleted.
