Three Phases

One tool. Complete control.

01

Workspace ManagerAvailable

Snapshot your entire browser context — windows, tabs, tab groups, pinned states, and window geometry. Restore with one click. Up to 500 workspaces × 500 tabs.

  • Save current window, all windows, or single tab
  • Tab groups with color & collapse state preserved
  • Preview a workspace before restoring
  • Save & Close to free RAM without losing context
02

AI Chat VaultAvailable

Capture full AI conversations from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity & Copilot. Search, filter, rename, export, and re-use past conversations instantly.

  • Quick, Guided, and Auto capture modes
  • 0–100 completeness scoring per capture
  • Export to JSON or Markdown
  • Attach chats to workspaces
03

Desktop VaultAvailable

Unlimited local storage via a Rust native host and Tauri desktop app. SQLite WAL + FTS5 full-text search — backups, atomic writes, 100% offline.

  • SSD-backed SQLite vault (50,000+ chats tested)
  • FTS5 full-text search with snippets and ranking
  • ZIP backups with point-in-time snapshots
  • Atomic writes: temp → fsync → rename
Privacy By Design

Open architecture.
Closed to the cloud.

Every component runs locally. From capture to storage, nothing leaves your machine.

6 Chrome Permissions Only

tabs, tabGroups, windows, storage, clipboardWrite, nativeMessaging. No broad host permissions. No webRequest.

Zero Outbound Requests

The vault makes no network calls. Your conversations never touch the internet.

No Cookie Capture

Technically impossible by design — missing permissions prevent any auth token or cookie access.

XSS Prevention Built-In

All user strings HTML-escaped. Content HTML is stripped before native messaging and disk write.

Scoped Content Scripts

Content scripts run only on the 6 supported AI platform origins — an explicit allowlist, nothing broader.

Source of Truth on Disk

The SSD vault is authoritative. Browser storage is only a write-through fallback cache.

The core is free. Forever.
