OctoKeep reads what you save, remembers it, and checks back until you act on it.
OctoKeep lives in Telegram. Before you connect it, you need a free Walrus Memory account (see setup below). It holds your memory, and you can revoke OctoKeep's access at any time.

| TasksUp to 3 questions | "Build an app Thursday, remind me" | Confirms the date and asks a few short questions about the task | At the time you set, with an organised plan |
| OutcomesLearns from you | Done, Snooze or Drop | Remembers what you finished and what you skipped | Uses it to shape the next reminder |
How to use it

Set up in five minutes
You own your memory. OctoKeep only gets a key you can revoke.
-
Create your Walrus Memory account
Open memory.walrus.xyz, sign in, and finish the account setup.
-
Create a key for OctoKeep
Under Delegate keys, select Add key and name it OctoKeep. A separate key means you can cut OctoKeep off later without touching anything else.
-
Copy two values
From SDK credentials, copy your Account ID and the delegate private key for that key. Treat the private key like a password and do not post it anywhere else.
-
Start the bot
Open @OctoKeep_bot, send this, and choose your timezone so reminders arrive at the right hour.
/start -
Connect your memory
Send this, then paste the Account ID and the private key when asked. OctoKeep deletes your message straight away and stores the key encrypted.
/connect -
Send your first link
Paste a link to a video, article or post. For Instagram, send a screenshot of the post or a screen recording of the Reel, since OctoKeep does not scrape that app.
Your memory, your keys
What is stored, where, and how to switch it off.
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Where your memory lives | Encrypted on Walrus, in your own Walrus Memory account. It is not tied to OctoKeep, so it goes wherever your account goes. |
| What OctoKeep stores | Your Telegram ID, timezone and reminder times. The text of your reminders, your account ID and your delegate key are stored encrypted. |
| How to cut it offRevocable | Delete the OctoKeep key in your Walrus Memory dashboard. OctoKeep can no longer read or write your memory. |
