Why one profile helps
A Pew Research Center survey conducted on February 17–23, 2026, found that 44% of US adults had ever used ChatGPT, 24% Gemini, 17% Copilot and 6% Claude. These separate figures do not measure how many people use several assistants. Each one has its own place for instructions about you, and they don't talk to each other.
A single profile, kept in one place, lets you give each AI the same instructions. Check how each assistant applies them.
What goes in a good AI profile
- Who you are, in a line: your role, your field, your level.
- What you use AI for: writing, studying, coding, planning.
- How you like answers: short or detailed, with examples or without, bullet points or prose.
- What to avoid: jargon, long intros, a tone you don't like.
Keep it safe.
No passwords, no account numbers, no health details, nothing about other people. A profile is about how you like to work, not your private life.
Write it by hand
- Write four short sections using the list above.
- Keep it under a page.
- Paste it into each AI's settings, or as the first message of a new chat.
- Update it when your work changes.
The faster way: AI Profile, in Uncook
Uncook's AI Profile writes it from your chats. On the ChatGPT page, click the Uncook icon and pick AI Profile. You get a profile of you: how you work and how you like answers. Read it, change what you want, then copy it into settings that accept instructions, or paste it at the start of a new chat.
AI Profile — Free with an account, within its own reading and usage limits. It uses no tasks from your balance.
Questions people ask
Does it work with AIs Uncook doesn't read? Yes. A profile is plain text: paste it yourself into a chat, or into settings that accept instructions. This does not mean Uncook reads that service.
Is it the same as ChatGPT's memory? No. Memory lives inside one AI. Your profile is yours, and you choose where it goes.
How often should I update it? Whenever your work or your preferences change. Make a new one from your latest chats.

without starting over.
Add to Chrome
We don't keep the conversations you bring. When you click Send to Uncook in the extension window, the extension sends the chat from your tab to our servers, encrypted, for up to 30 minutes, and we delete it as soon as your Uncook page opens it. What Uncook makes from it is kept as a task, for as long as our Privacy page says. Neither your chats nor your tasks are used to train AI models.
