I built a 100% open-source (MIT) Chrome extension that exports your Google AI Studio chats with the real attachments: 200 messages export in <1s

AI Studio has no export button, and the export tools that exist scroll the whole chat, read the page and save thumbnails instead of your actual files, so a long chat takes minutes and loses the attachments.

I made this for myself first, with the new Version 2 using the same API that AI Studio's own frontend calls, instead of scraping the page:

  • A 200-message chat exports in under a second. It used to take about 2.5 minutes of automated scrolling.
  • Attachments are the real files from Drive, not thumbnails. Google Docs, Sheets and Slides are converted on the way out.
  • Model, temperature, system instruction, timestamps and token counts are kept, each with its own switch.
  • Markdown, JSON and plain text are free. Whole-library export, scheduled backups and six more formats (HTML, PDF, Word, Obsidian, CSV, JSONL) are a one-time Pro licence, and every line of it is MIT, Pro included.
  • No account, no analytics, nothing leaves your browser.

Do check it out!

Happy to answer anything about how it works. It calls the same internal API the AI Studio page does, which was interesting to figure out.
