Ophel can export any AI conversation to a file, preserving not just the text but also images, uploaded files, generated assets, code artifacts, and reasoning chains — depending on what the platform exposes. You control the output format, what gets included, and how files are packaged.
How to export
| Method | Description |
|---|
| Toolbox menu | Click ☰ in the floating button group, then Export |
| Keyboard shortcut | Alt / ⌥+Shift+E exports the current conversation |
| Conversations tab | Click the Export action on any conversation row |
Preserves headings, code blocks, and image references. Best for pasting into
a note-taking app or documentation tool.
Same Markdown output, bundled as a zip archive with all referenced assets
preserved in organized subdirectories. Choose this when the conversation
contains images, files, or generated artifacts you want to keep alongside
the text.
Structured data with all messages, roles, timestamps, and model info. Best
for programmatic use or archiving.
No formatting — just the raw text. Works in any text editor.
Packaging mode
Go to Settings → Features → Export → Packaging mode to choose how Markdown exports handle assets:
| Mode | Behavior |
|---|
| Markdown only | Exports a single .md file. Images and attachments appear as text references or external links. |
| Zip package | Bundles the Markdown file together with all assets in a .zip archive. This is the default. |

This table reflects what Ophel can extract from each platform’s current page
structure. If a platform redesigns its DOM, some capabilities may need adapter
updates before they work again.
ChatGPT
- Generated images — AI-generated image-only replies are included in both Markdown and zip exports.
- Deep Research reports — When a Deep Research report is available, the export includes the report title and a link. In zip mode, linked report files are preserved under
assets/files/.
- User attachments — Uploaded images and linked files from user prompts are packaged in zip mode.
Gemini & Gemini Enterprise
- Canvas code artifacts — Exports open Canvas artifacts, switches to the code tab, and includes the generated code in the Markdown output.
- Deep Research exports — Covers owned app conversations, share pages, and generated report share pages. Closed report panels are opened during export and restored afterward.
- Deep Research report actions — When a Deep Research report panel is open, Copy Markdown and Download Markdown buttons appear in the report toolbar, exporting only the current report without changing the regular conversation export.
Claude
- Document artifacts — Markdown document artifacts are exported as linked files under
assets/documents/ in zip packages.
- Thinking chains — Expanded Claude thinking blocks are included when “Include Thoughts in Export” is enabled.
- Attachments — Uploaded images and linked files from user prompts are packaged in zip mode, preserving the original reply order of text and artifact links.
Kimi
- Share page export — Kimi share pages are supported for export, outline extraction, and scroll navigation.
- Thought chains — Visible thinking content is included when “Include Thoughts in Export” is enabled.
- User images — Uploaded images are preserved in Markdown and zip exports.
Deep Research report export (Gemini)
Gemini Deep Research reports are handled separately from regular conversation exports:
- The Outline tab shows a Chat / Document source switch when a report is open, letting you browse the report outline independently from the conversation outline.
- The report panel toolbar includes Copy Markdown and Download Markdown buttons for exporting only the report content.
- During a full conversation export, Ophel opens the report panel if it is closed, extracts the content, and restores the panel state afterward.
Export settings
Configure export behavior in Settings → Features → Export:
| Setting | Description | Default |
|---|
| Packaging mode | Markdown only or zip package | Zip package |
| Default export format | File format used when you click Export | Markdown |
| Custom user name | Replaces “User” in the exported output | (empty) |
| Custom AI name | Replaces the AI name in the exported output | (empty) |
| Include filename timestamp | Adds a timestamp to the exported filename | Off |
| Include thinking/reasoning chains | Exports reasoning steps for platforms that expose them | On |
| Convert images to Base64 | Embeds images inline instead of linking to them | Off |
| Export filename template | Custom naming rule for exported files (supports {title}, {date}) | {title} |
Copy as Markdown
Click Copy as Markdown from the toolbox menu to copy the entire conversation to your clipboard in Markdown format. This is faster than exporting a file when you just need to paste the content into a note, email, or another AI chat.
Export from share pages
Ophel supports exporting from share pages on most platforms. The browser tab title and export filename use the page heading when the conversation title is not exposed on a share page. Platform-specific share page support:
- Gemini — owned app conversations, conversation share pages, and report share pages
- Kimi — share page conversations with images and file labels
- Doubao — share links under
/thread/
- Z.ai — conversation and share pages
- ChatGLM — share pages with thinking content
- Qwen Studio — regular and share page conversations with thinking details
