Inkpour is a browser extension that exports AI chat conversations to Markdown, PDF, HTML, JSON, or ZIP. It collects no personal data, sends nothing to any server, and requires no account.
- Reads the DOM of AI chat pages you visit (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, and others) when you click Export or use a keyboard shortcut.
- Converts that content to your chosen format and saves it directly to your device via the browser's native download API.
- Optionally uploads a Gist to GitHub if you configure a GitHub token and explicitly trigger the Upload to Gist action — the token is stored locally in your browser's extension storage and is never sent anywhere other than
api.github.com. - Optionally calls a webhook URL of your choosing if you configure one in Settings — this is entirely opt-in and you control the endpoint.
- Does not collect, transmit, or store any data on external servers.
- Does not track usage, analytics, or telemetry of any kind.
- Does not read pages outside the AI chat sites listed in its permissions.
- Does not access your browsing history.
- Does not use cookies.
Inkpour stores the following data in your browser's local extension storage (chrome.storage.local / browser.storage.local):
- Your export settings (format, filename template, webhook URL, GitHub token).
- A local export history log (titles, timestamps, word counts) used for the in-extension history view.
This data never leaves your device unless you configure a GitHub token or webhook, in which case only the content you explicitly export is sent to those endpoints.
