Frequently asked questions

ConvoVault is a free, privacy-first browser extension that exports AI conversations from ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, and Claude to JSON, Markdown, or plain text — entirely in your browser, with nothing sent to a server.

How do I export a ChatGPT conversation?

Install the ConvoVault browser extension, open any ChatGPT conversation, and click the export button added to the toolbar. Choose JSON, Markdown, or plain text, then copy to clipboard or download the file. The export runs entirely in your browser — no data is uploaded to a server.

How do I save a Claude, Gemini, or Grok chat as JSON?

ConvoVault adds export buttons inside Claude, Gemini, and Grok as well as ChatGPT. Open the conversation you want to save, click export, and select JSON as the format. The resulting file includes message text, role, timestamps, and the conversation title, with optional metadata fields you can toggle.

Is there a free browser extension to export AI chats?

Yes. ConvoVault is a free browser extension available for Chrome and other Chromium browsers, with a Firefox build published on Mozilla Add-ons. It exports conversations from ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, and Claude to JSON, Markdown, or plain text. There is no account, no paywall, and no telemetry.

Does ConvoVault send my conversations to a server?

No. ConvoVault is local-only and privacy-first. Every export is processed inside your browser tab, and the extension has no backend, database, or analytics. Conversations never leave your device over the network. The only permission requested is local storage for your preferences.

Can I export only part of a conversation?

Yes. Each message has a checkbox that lets you toggle it on or off before exporting, so you can keep the messages that matter and drop the rest. Use Shift + click to select a range, or Ctrl + click to clear all selections. Selections are remembered per thread until you export.

Can I continue a ChatGPT thread in Claude or another AI app?

Yes. ConvoVault can stage a conversation from one platform and open it pre-filled in a new chat on another — for example, sending a ChatGPT thread into Claude, or a Gemini thread into Grok. The handoff payload stays in local storage for about five minutes, then clears itself.

What file formats does ConvoVault export to?

ConvoVault exports to JSON, Markdown, and plain text. JSON is structured for scripts and agents, Markdown is readable for notes and docs, and plain text is universal. File names are date-stamped (for example, conversation_2026-07-14.json) so exports sort chronologically.

Keep the conversations worth keeping.

Add ConvoVault to your browser and your next export is one click away. Free, and nothing leaves your device.
