About MindArchive — Export & Archive AI Chats
You've accumulated valuable ideas, solutions, and knowledge in your AI conversations — but they're scattered across platforms, unsearchable, unorganized, and lost when you switch devices. MindArchive solves this: export AI conversations to local files with one click, and manage your knowledge fully.
EXPORT CONVERSATIONS — 10 PLATFORMS, ONE-CLICK SAVE
Full export support for 10 major AI platforms: ChatGPT, Claude, DeepSeek, and more. Not just AI platforms — select text on any webpage, right-click, and export.
Four ways to trigger an export:
- Inline icon — Hover over any AI reply, the export icon appears beside native icons. Click to export.
- Right-click menu — Select text and right-click to export, or on AI platforms right-click a message for the reply, right-click empty space for the entire conversation.
- Popup panel — Click the toolbar icon, all export options in one panel.
- Checkbox selective export — Check the messages you want, skip the rest. Selections persist on virtual-DOM pages.
Six export formats: Markdown, PDF, Word and more. Conversation structure, code blocks, tables, and formatting are fully preserved.
Before exporting, preview and edit in the WYSIWYG editor — add notes, fix formatting, then download in any format. AI-generated title, tags, and summary are embedded in the output.
LOCAL KNOWLEDGE BASE — YOUR SECOND BRAIN
MindArchive is more than an export tool. It includes a local, Obsidian-compatible Markdown knowledge base — all stored as standard .md files in a folder you choose, no proprietary formats, no lock-in.
- Full-text search — Ctrl+K global search with CJK support, results by filename and content, matching lines highlighted.
- WYSIWYG editor — Headings, bold, code blocks, tables, images, auto-saves after you stop typing.
- File tree management — Drag and drop, batch operations, custom sorting.
- Properties panel — Title, tags, platform, category stored as YAML frontmatter.
- Categories & tags — Categories map to disk folders one-to-one, AI auto-generates tags when saving.
Obsidian two-way compatible — point the storage directory to your Obsidian vault and both apps share the same files, edits synced in real time. Without Obsidian, the knowledge base works perfectly as a standalone manager.
MORE FEATURES
- File viewer — Double-click .md files to render in Chrome with syntax highlighting, table of contents, and editing.
