ChatEngram is a local-first second brain for your AI conversations. It automatically captures and archives your interactions with AI platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, and more, ensuring that your valuable discussions remain accessible and searchable on your device. With a focus on privacy, control, and efficiency, ChatEngram transforms fleeting AI chats into a permanent knowledge base you can rely on.
The product is designed for users who want to maintain a structured record of their AI interactions without relying on third-party servers. Whether you're a developer, researcher, writer, or professional, ChatEngram helps you organize and retrieve important information from your AI conversations quickly and easily. Its browser-based interface allows for seamless integration with your existing workflows, while its powerful search capabilities ensure you never lose track of critical insights again.
ChatEngram operates by capturing AI conversations directly from the browser as they occur. It uses a combination of DOM parsing and event listeners to detect and save chat content in real time. Once captured, these conversations are stored locally on your device, making them immediately searchable through a unified command bar (Cmd/Ctrl + K). The data remains encrypted and never leaves your system unless you choose to sync it with external platforms like Obsidian or Notion.
Users can also backfill past conversations and export individual or multiple chats in various formats. Advanced users can customize how data is parsed using the Adapter Lab, allowing for continued compatibility even when AI platforms update their UIs.
