Save chats from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and five more platforms to PDF, Word, Markdown — nine formats in all. Clean them up, redact sensitive details, and keep local backups. Every bit of it happens inside your browser. Your conversations are never sent to any server. Not ours, not anyone's.
Free formats forever. No account. No sign-up. No daily caps. No data collection — and you can verify it.
The actual extension — and a claim you can verify yourself in 30 seconds.
People tell AI assistants things they would never type into a search bar — health questions, legal drafts, client work, business strategy. That makes chat content one of the most valuable data streams in your browser. In December 2025, security researchers showed how aggressively it's being harvested.
Two Chrome extensions impersonating a popular AI sidebar were caught sending users' ChatGPT and DeepSeek conversations — plus the URL of every open tab — to attacker-controlled servers every 30 minutes. One of them carried Google's "Featured" badge.
Source: OX Security ↗A free VPN extension — installed by millions of people for privacy — quietly shipped an update that intercepted conversations on ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, Perplexity, DeepSeek and Grok. It collected in the background whether the VPN was switched on or not.
Source: Malwarebytes ↗Every one of those extensions passed Chrome Web Store review. The lesson isn't "don't trust extensions" — it's that trust should be verifiable.
ChatSnapAI is built so there's nothing to intercept and nowhere to send it. Your exports are generated by code running inside your browser and saved straight to your downloads folder. No ChatSnapAI server exists in the path of your conversations — which is why the network monitor reads zero during an export, and why you don't have to take our word for any of this.
Verify it yourself →ChatSnapAI started as the cleanest way to export an AI chat. It's grown into a private workspace for the whole lifecycle — capture it, clean it, protect it, and keep it. All on your device.
PDF comes in four themes — Light, Dark, Highlight and Memo — alongside Word, Markdown, HTML, EPUB, PNG, TXT, JSON and CSV. Or copy straight to your clipboard as text, Markdown or JSON.
Scan a conversation for emails, phone numbers, SSNs, cards and API keys, then export a masked copy. You choose exactly what to hide and how — on your device.
Report mode turns a raw chat into a polished document — strips AI filler, adds a title, headings and a table of contents, and can drop your prompts to leave just the answers.
Add a tamper-evident SHA-256 fingerprint so you can prove an export wasn't altered — or redact and fingerprint in one step for regulated work.
Long chats load fully before export, and a completeness check warns you if anything looks like it's missing. No more exports that quietly stop halfway.
Everything, just your prompts, just the AI's responses, a custom range — or hand-pick individual messages.
Extract every code block from a conversation into correctly named files — .py, .js, .css and more — bundled in one zip.
Park notes and prompt drafts right on the page, and never lose a long prompt to an accidental refresh again.
Keep copies of conversations so a chat is safe even if it's deleted online. Auto-backup and bulk export come with Pro.
Word counts, talk balance and reading time at a glance — plus a fun, shareable recap of any conversation.
Every browser ships with a network monitor that shows every request a page — or an extension — makes. It takes 30 seconds to confirm that ChatSnapAI sends nothing, anywhere, when you export.
On any AI chat page, press F12 (Windows) or ⌘ Option I (Mac), then click the Network tab. It now records every request the page makes.
Open ChatSnapAI and click any export — PDF, Word, Markdown, anything. Your file appears in your downloads folder as usual.
Nothing. No request to a ChatSnapAI server — because there isn't one in the path of your conversations. The export was built entirely on your machine.
Worth knowing: some chat exporters generate PDFs on their own servers — your conversation is uploaded to them first. It's usually right there in their privacy policy. Check ours, check theirs, check anyone's: our privacy policy is one page.
For a lot of professionals, "your conversations never leave your browser" isn't a nice-to-have — it's the difference between a tool they can use and a tool they can't.
Draft with AI, file the record locally. Client matters and privileged material never transit a third-party server on their way to your case file.
Clinical questions and patient-adjacent notes stay on your machine. There's no vendor in the middle to audit, because there's no vendor in the middle.
Unpublished findings, strategy, client work — export it for your records without adding another company to the list of people who've seen it.
Before you export or share, scan the conversation and redact what matters — names, emails, SSNs, account and card numbers, API keys — with a review step so you control exactly what's hidden.
Need a paper trail? Compliance export redacts and adds a tamper-evident SHA-256 fingerprint in one step, so you can later prove the file wasn't altered. Like everything else, it runs entirely on your device — there's no server in the path to redact on, which is rather the point.
Team & compliance licensing for regulated organizations is coming.
There are plenty of ways to save an AI chat. Here's what sets this one apart.
Most exporters stop at "download." ChatSnapAI also cleans up the transcript, redacts sensitive details, backs it up, and holds your prompts and notes — the work you actually do around a conversation.
Some exporters build your PDF on their own servers, which means your conversation is sent to them first. ChatSnapAI runs entirely in your browser; open the network monitor during an export and watch it read zero.
Redaction, compliance and certified exports make it usable where a leak isn't an option — for legal, healthcare and client work. That's the part general-purpose exporters simply don't offer.
The free tier isn't a trial — it's a complete exporter you can use forever. Pro unlocks the rich document formats, the privacy tools, and the power features.
No daily caps or export quotas, on either tier — ever. Some exporters meter you to "3 PDFs a day" because their servers process every export and servers cost money. Nothing in ChatSnapAI runs on a server, so there's nothing to meter. One license covers two devices. Pro purchasing opens with our Chrome Web Store launch — and on both tiers, conversation processing stays on your device. Privacy is never the upsell.
