# Calmara > Privacy-first AI productivity platform whose AI memory has a revision history you can prove. Every remembered fact is a subject/predicate/object triple with temporal validity, full version history, and provenance — inspectable, retractable, hard-deletable, and exportable in open formats (ICS, VTODO, JSON). Every assistant tool call is logged with the full input it sent. Tasks, calendar, projects and notes plug into Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, or any MCP client. BYOK, local LLM, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint; EU-hosted; optional self-hosting. ## Product - [Calmara — prove what your AI remembers](https://calmara.app/): AI memory with a revision history you can prove: every fact keeps its provenance, versions, and retractions.
