Teach Manny about you

What this gets you

Advice that fits you. Once Manny knows who your music is for, what you are chasing and how you work, his pitches, ad plans and weekly suggestions stop reading like they were written for anybody with a guitar.

When to use it

Do it in your first week, then again whenever something changes: a new goal, a new sound, a new touring city, a new posting rhythm. Also do it the moment he gets something wrong about you, because one correction is faster than arguing with the same wrong assumption every week.

Do it

1. Give him a fact to keep. Type "remember that I only post on Tuesdays and Fridays" or "remember I record everything at home". He confirms with "Got it, I'll remember that" and uses it from then on.
2. Tell him who the music is for. Type "remember my audience is late-night R&B listeners in their twenties, fans of Snoh Aalegra and Cleo Sol". This is the single most useful thing you can tell him: ad targeting, pitches and content ideas all fall apart without it.
3. Tell him what you are chasing. Type "help me reach 5,000 monthly listeners by March". Manny creates the goal, breaks it into tasks and opens Goals so you can see them.
4. Check in on it later with "how am I doing on my goals?" or "what should I work on next?". He reads the progress from your real numbers, not from memory.
5. Ask "what do you know about me?" to hear everything back. Read it. Anything that sounds wrong is quietly steering his advice.
6. Correct him with "forget that I play mostly acoustic shows", then say the right version. Corrections overwrite; they do not stack up next to the old answer.
7. Reopen an old conversation from the clock icon at the top of the chat. Threads are grouped Today, Yesterday, This Week and Older; click one to load it, or use the bin icon to delete it.
8. Start a fresh thread with the plus icon next to the clock when you change subject. A long thread drifts, and Musuni nudges you to start fresh after about twenty messages. Switching artists in the top-left switcher also starts a fresh chat, because each artist has its own memory and its own history.

Let Manny do it

You do not have to use the word "remember". Tell him things in passing and he will ask whether to keep them: "Want me to hold on to that?". Saying yes stores it.

Ask "what are my goals?" for the list, "pause that goal" to stop it generating tasks, and "clear everything you remember about me" for a clean slate. He will confirm before wiping it.

What it cannot do

• Memory belongs to one artist. What he remembers for your solo project is not carried over to your band, and the other way round.
• Past conversations do not last forever. The free plan keeps about a week of threads and a handful at a time; paid plans keep more, for longer. Anything that matters should be saved as a memory or a goal, not left in a thread.
• Alongside what you tell him, he builds a read of you from your numbers and from which suggestions you act on. Treat that as a signal, not a fact about you. If it is off, say so and it updates.
• Goals track progress from streaming and follower numbers. A goal with no measurable number ("get better at writing") still generates tasks, but he cannot score it.
• He does not read your files, your inbox or your camera roll to learn about you. Everything he knows either came from you or from your connected accounts.
• Telling him something does not change anything on your Musuni account. A memory is not a setting; career stage, notifications and billing still live in Settings.
