AI Chat Exporter - Free, Private, OpenSource av Covai Labs

AI Chat Exporter is a fast, lightweight, and privacy-first browser add-on that lets you backup, export, and transfer your conversations from major AI assistants. With one click, convert entire conversational threads into clean Markdown (.md), schema-compliant JSON, standalone HTML, PDF, Microsoft Word (.doc), or shareable PNG images.

Seamlessly bridge your AI conversations directly into your Personal Knowledge Management (PKM) vault (Obsidian, Logseq, Bear, NotePlan, Drafts) or continue discussions across different AI models without losing context.

100% Local & Privacy-First: No accounts, no servers, no telemetry, and no tracking. All parsing, rendering, and exports happen entirely within your local browser.

• One-Click Export: Download chats directly from your browser toolbar popup or Firefox sidebar.
• Clean Markdown (.md): Cleanly extracts headers, bullet lists, tables, inline images, code blocks, and LaTeX math.
• Structured JSON (.json): Exports normalized, schema-compliant JSON files with message roles, timestamps, model metadata, and full conversational trees.
• HTML, PDF & Word (.doc): Create standalone HTML documents with preserved styling, print-ready PDF files, or Microsoft Word (.doc) documents ready for editing.
• PNG Image Snapshots: Generate high-resolution visual snapshots of your chat threads using built-in canvas rendering.
• PKM Deep-Linking: Direct one-click URI transfer to Obsidian, Logseq, Bear, NotePlan, and Drafts.
• Cross-Model Continuation: Transfer active chat context directly to other AI platforms (e.g. continue a ChatGPT conversation in Claude, Gemini, or DeepSeek).
• Clipboard Rich-Text Copying: One-click copy formatted text or clean Markdown straight to your clipboard for instant pasting into Notion, Roam Research, Apple Notes, or email.
• LaTeX Math & Syntax Highlighting: Built-in KaTeX math engine renders block ($$...$$) and inline ($...$) equations cleanly; Prism.js provides crisp syntax highlighting for 100+ programming languages.
• Reasoning & Thought Traces: Preserves thinking steps and chain-of-thought traces (e.g., DeepSeek-R1, Claude reasoning).
