About Perplexity to obsidian - Batch Export
Perplexity to Obsidian — Export AI Chats to Markdown
Part of AI Exporter Hub, this Chrome extension helps you export, download, and back up Perplexity conversations as clean, structured Markdown files for Obsidian and other Markdown-based knowledge tools.
From everyday research to technical discussions, preserve your AI conversations with LaTeX math formulas, code blocks, sources, images, attachments, and metadata — without manually copying and pasting.
Save your research locally, organize it by Project, and build a personal knowledge base you can access and reuse.
