Folders, search and export for ChatGPT

AI Toolbox (formerly ChatGPT Toolbox) adds folders and subfolders, full-text search across every message, bulk export in five formats, smart tags, bookmarks and a prompt library with chaining to chatgpt.com. It is the original ChatGPT Toolbox, now one module of a Chrome extension that also covers Gemini, Claude and Grok.

Free plan, no account. Premium $9.99/month or $99 once. Works on Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera and Arc.

ChatGPT with and without it

What ChatGPT does not include, and what the module adds

ChatGPT ships no folders, searches titles only, and has no export. AI Toolbox fills each gap in one install, with 40,000+ users and a 4.7/5 Chrome Web Store rating behind it.

What the module adds

Six things you will use every day on chatgpt.com

Every feature works on the free plan with a usage cap. Premium removes the caps. Captures below are the real extension, not mockups.

Folders and subfolders

Put every chat where you can find it again

Nested folders and subfolders with color coding, breadcrumb navigation, item-count pills and a usage bar, inside the ChatGPT sidebar. Open a folder, search for a conversation by name, and add it. Folders sync across your devices.

  • Free: 2 folders
  • Premium: unlimited folders and subfolders
  • Pinned folders and pinned chats at the top of the sidebar

Full-text search

Find the answer, not just the chat title

Cmd+Shift+F on macOS or Ctrl+Shift+F on Windows searches every message in every conversation. Filter by date, by role (you or ChatGPT) or exact match. Results highlight the match with a count badge and jump straight to the message. The index lives in your browser, no server round-trip.

  • Free: 5 results per query
  • Premium: unlimited results with infinite scroll
  • Search all four platforms at once with Ctrl+Shift+.

Bulk export

Your conversations, in files you own

Export a chat, a folder or a project as TXT, Markdown, JSON, PDF or ZIP. Markdown ships with YAML frontmatter (title, date, model, url, source) so files drop into Obsidian, Logseq or Pandoc without cleanup. PDF is full A4 with role accent bars and smart page breaks.

  • Free: TXT export, 3 per day
  • Premium: Markdown, JSON, PDF and bulk ZIP with a progress counter
  • Folder and project export in one archive

Prompt library and chaining

Type // and your best prompt is in the box

Save prompts with {{placeholder}} variables and insert them with the // shortcut. Browse hundreds of expert prompts across 12 categories with a daily featured pick. Prompt chaining queues up to 10 prompts and waits for each ChatGPT reply before sending the next.

  • Free: 2 saved prompts, 2 chains, 5 library categories
  • Premium: unlimited prompts, chains and favorites, all 12 categories
  • Prompts sync across devices

Smart tags

Every chat labeled Coding, Writing, Research, Math or Business

Auto-categorisation tags every conversation across five default categories and any custom rules you add with keywords and colors. It runs against the local cache, so there is no AI cost and nothing leaves the browser.

  • Free: last 50 conversations tagged, 2 custom rules
  • Premium: unlimited conversations, 20 custom rules, cross-device sync
  • Filter, move, export or delete by tag in the manager

  • Free: 2 bookmarks
  • Premium: unlimited bookmarks
  • Message labels pin a heading above any reply

FAQ

Questions ChatGPT users ask before installing

Is this the same as ChatGPT Toolbox?

Yes. AI Toolbox (formerly ChatGPT Toolbox). Five years and 40,000+ users later, ChatGPT Toolbox grew into a Chrome extension that also covers Gemini and Claude, so it was renamed AI Toolbox. The ChatGPT module on this page is the original product, unchanged in features, with the same install and the same user data.

What does the ChatGPT module of AI Toolbox add?

Folders and subfolders, full-text search across all message content, bulk export (TXT, Markdown with YAML frontmatter, JSON, PDF, ZIP), smart tags with 5 default categories (Coding, Writing, Research, Math, Business), context mentions (type @@ to inject a past conversation), command palette (Cmd+K on macOS, Ctrl+K on Windows), message bookmarks with color labels, media gallery, usage tracker with ChatGPT Wrapped, download as MP3, bulk delete and archive, and a prompt library with chaining. ChatGPT does not ship native folders, full-text search, or bulk export. AI Toolbox fills every one of those gaps in one extension.

Does my existing ChatGPT Toolbox subscription still work?

Yes. Existing subscriptions, lifetime licenses, and Teams seats keep working. Your folders, prompts, and settings carry over with no migration needed.

Is the ChatGPT module free?

Yes, with limits. Free includes 5 search results per query, 2 folders, 2 bookmarks, 2 saved prompts, and 3 exports per day. Monthly ($9.99/month per module) and Lifetime ($99 lifetime per module) unlock unlimited usage. All Access Lifetime ($199) covers ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Grok in one purchase, plus every future platform.

Is my data safe?

Yes. AI Toolbox is local-first: conversation content stays in your browser (IndexedDB) and is never stored on our servers. Only what you build in the extension (folders, prompts, and tags) syncs across your devices, encrypted at rest so we cannot read it. GDPR compliant. Passes Chrome Web Store security review.

Does AI Toolbox slow down ChatGPT?

No. AI Toolbox injects a sidebar panel and operates entirely against a local IndexedDB cache. All search indexing and data operations run on-device with no server round-trips during normal browsing. There are no background network requests on page load. Users with very large libraries (500+ conversations) may notice a one-time indexing period of under 30 seconds on first install. After that, search results are instant.

What browsers does AI Toolbox support?

AI Toolbox works on all Chromium-based browsers: Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Brave, Opera, and Arc. Install directly from the Chrome Web Store on any of them. Firefox and Safari are not supported.

Does AI Toolbox support Gemini and Claude too?

Yes. AI Toolbox is a single extension that covers ChatGPT, Gemini (gemini.google.com), and Claude (claude.ai). The ChatGPT module activates automatically on install. Gemini and Claude are opt-in via the extension popup. See the AI Toolbox modules comparison for a full breakdown of which features are available on each platform.

Does Markdown export include YAML frontmatter for Obsidian or Logseq?

Yes. Every Markdown export (.md) ships with a YAML frontmatter block at the top of the file containing title, date (ISO format), model, url (the original chatgpt.com link), and source. The file drops straight into Obsidian, Logseq, Pandoc, Quartz, Astro, Hugo, and any other tool that reads YAML frontmatter, no post-processing required. Applies to single-chat exports, bulk-folder ZIPs, and project-level ZIPs.

What is the All Access Lifetime plan?

All Access Lifetime ($199) is a single one-time purchase that covers all four modules: ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Grok, plus every future AI platform AI Toolbox adds. It saves $197 compared to buying four individual Lifetime plans at $99 each ($396 total). It is the best-value option for users who work across multiple AI assistants.

What about Teams for ChatGPT teams?

ChatGPT Teams is available at $15/seat/month or $12/seat annually with a 2-seat minimum. Includes admin dashboard, centralized billing, team usage analytics, and dedicated support.

Can I cancel the monthly plan anytime?

Yes. The Monthly plan ($9.99/month per module) can be cancelled at any time through your payment account. There are no cancellation fees and no lock-in. Access continues until the end of the current billing period. The 14-day money-back guarantee covers all paid plans, including Lifetime and All Access Lifetime.
