Export your ChatGPT history.

CHATGPT.Vellum helps you turn ChatGPT conversations into readable PDFs, one clean file per chat, instead of the raw archive ChatGPT hands you.

Free Chrome extension · Updated 2026-07-07
ChatGPT's own history export gives you a conversations.json archive that is hard to read. CHATGPT.Vellum exports each live conversation as a clean PDF in one click, so you get readable documents rather than raw data. It runs in your browser and is free.

How to do it

01

Open a conversation you want to keep

03

Why CHATGPT.Vellum for this

Readable, not raw

The official export is a JSON archive; CHATGPT.Vellum gives you documents a person can read.

Whole chats

Each conversation is captured in full, however long.

Stays with you

Exports are built locally and never uploaded.

Tidy archive

One clean PDF per conversation, easy to file and search.

Questions

What is conversations.json?

It is the file in ChatGPT's official data export. It holds your chats as raw data, not readable documents.

Can CHATGPT.Vellum open that archive for me?

CHATGPT.Vellum exports your live conversations to PDF one by one; it does not upload your archive, which keeps things private.

Should I export before deleting my account?

If you want to keep your chats, save the ones that matter as PDFs first.
