Chat Preserver
Chat Preserver icon: a chat bubble inside a life ring

Keep the whole conversation.

Every message, every file, even the ones ChatGPT made. Checked, saved to your computer, and readable offline.

A browser extension for Chrome and Edge. Coming soon to the Chrome Web Store and Edge Add-ons.

What makes it different

The files, not just the words

Uploads, images and the files ChatGPT created while running code are downloaded and linked where they appear.

Checked, not hoped

The chat is captured twice, two different ways, and the captures are compared. Anything ChatGPT no longer has is listed by name, never silently dropped.

Proof you can keep

Every file gets a SHA-256 fingerprint, and the whole chat gets a content fingerprint that stays the same each time you save an unchanged chat.

A reader, not a dump

One offline page with search, filters, jump-to-message, a side rail for long chats, images inline and working file links.

Private by design

Runs in your browser and saves to a folder you choose. No account, no server, nothing uploaded.

Works on work accounts

ChatGPT Team, Enterprise and Edu workspaces have no built-in export. If you can open the chat in your browser, you can save it.

Quick or Full

Quick saves every message and the reader in about 20 seconds. Full adds every file in a few minutes, and can run later into the same folder.

Polite to ChatGPT

Downloads are paced, slow down automatically if ChatGPT asks, and pick up where they left off.

Good to know before you start
