Project-Aware Memory

Every conversation is stored locally and tied to its project. Reopen a project weeks later and Phoenix.vu already knows your architecture, patterns, and decisions — no re-explaining.

  • Remembers Project Context
  • Preserves Development History
  • Continues Across Sessions
  • Understands Past Decisions

Performance Modes for Every Task

Different problems require different levels of reasoning. Phoenix.vu automatically balances performance, speed, and cost to deliver the best results for every stage of development.

  • Expert - Maximum Reasoning
  • Deep Think - Advanced Analysis
  • Builder - Balanced Development
  • Quick - Fast Responses
  • Turbo - Lowest Cost Iterations
