Incognito mode
Updated November 9, 2026
Incognito mode is a setting in some AI apps meant to keep a conversation from being saved to the app's memory.
What incognito covers varies by app, so read each company's own wording. Sesame's is one of the clearest: it says that in Incognito mode nothing is saved to memory or Sesame servers. Other apps may use the term differently, or not offer it at all.
It's useful when you want to talk something through without it shaping later conversations, and it's a reminder that memory is a design choice. Hallie's site doesn't describe an incognito mode. She remembers what you send in her thread and only sees that thread, and you can request deletion of your data by emailing hello@hallie.io.
