Does Chat Exporter send my conversations to any server?

No. Everything runs locally in your browser. No data is uploaded, no API calls are made, and no analytics are tracked.

Which formats can I export chats to?

PDF, Markdown, and JSON. PDF is best for sharing, Markdown for notes apps like Obsidian/Notion, JSON for backups and scripts.

Does it work with ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google AI Studio?

Yes. It works on chatgpt.com, chat.openai.com, gemini.google.com, and aistudio.google.com.

Is the extension free?

Yes, 100% free with no limits, no account, and no paywall.

Can I export very long conversations?

Yes. The extension auto-scrolls and captures the full history, even for 100+ message chats.

Can I save my chat to Obsidian or Notion?

Yes, use 'Copy as Markdown' and paste directly. Formatting, code blocks, and tables are preserved.

How do I save or download my chat history?

Open any chat, click the extension, choose PDF/Markdown/JSON, then click Export Now.

Does it work with GPT-4o, Gemini 2.5 Pro, and AI Studio models?

Yes, it works with all current models on ChatGPT, Gemini, and AI Studio, including reasoning/thinking modes.

Does it work with thinking/reasoning mode?

Yes, both ChatGPT reasoning and Gemini thinking traces are captured if visible in the UI.

What's the difference between PDF and Markdown export?

PDF is a formatted document for sharing/printing. Markdown is plain text with formatting for editing in notes apps.

Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 2026

What Data is Accessed

The extension reads the text and formatting content of your active conversation turn on the supported platforms—specifically including message text, code blocks, tables, lists, system instructions (where supported, like Google AI Studio), and optionally the page URL.

The extension runs only on:

aistudio.google.com
chatgpt.com
chat.openai.com
gemini.google.com

No permissions beyond the active tab, content scripting, storage, and file downloads are requested.

How it is Used

The accessed data is used solely to generate the export files you request (PDF, Markdown, or JSON).

All data processing is performed entirely within your browser locally. No conversation data is ever sent to, stored on, or transmitted to any external server.

What is NOT Done

No Remote Transmission: No data is transmitted to any external server.
No Analytics or Tracking: No user behavior analytics, event logs, or telemetry are collected.
No User Accounts: No user accounts or personal profiles are created.
No Long-term Storage: No conversation content is cached or stored beyond the active export session.
No Third-Party Scripts: No third-party tracking, advertising, or analysis scripts are included.

Permissions Used

activeTab — Granted temporarily to read the active conversation tab when you click the extension popup icon.
scripting — Used to safely extract the conversation DOM content from the active tab.
downloads — Used to save the generated PDF, Markdown, or JSON files directly to your device's downloads folder.
storage — Used to persist your preferred settings locally (e.g., dark/light mode preference).
Host Permissions — Permanent host permission is limited only to aistudio.google.com (required to pre-inject a helper script at document start to securely access AI Studio's internal conversation metadata). For ChatGPT and Gemini, tab access is granted strictly on-demand via the temporary activeTab permission when you open the popup.
