Save a ChatGPT chat as Markdown

Updated 2026-11-02

Markdown is the best format to keep an AI conversation: it's plain text, works in every notes app, and diffs nicely in Git. The copy button under each answer only copies one message, though – here is how to get the whole chat.

Copy one answer (built in)

Under each answer there is a copy button. It copies that one answer as Markdown. Fine for a snippet, slow for a whole conversation, and your own messages are not included.

Whole conversation in one file (free)

  1. Install Talkmere.
  2. Open the chat and click the Talkmere icon.
  3. Click Markdown. A .md file is saved, named after the chat title.

Or click Copy MD to put the whole conversation on the clipboard and paste it into Obsidian, Notion, Bear or a GitHub issue.

What the file looks like

# Binary search in Python

> Exported from ChatGPT with Talkmere · 2026-11-02 08:00 UTC · 4 messages

## You

Write a binary search in Python.

## ChatGPT

```python
def search(xs, v):
    ...
```
  • Each message starts with a ## You / ## ChatGPT heading; headings inside answers are shifted down so the outline stays correct.
  • Code blocks keep their language tag, tables become GitHub-style pipe tables, math is kept as $…$ / $$…$$.
  • Buttons, “Copy code” labels and hidden screen-reader text are left out.

Images

In the free export, images are links to where ChatGPT hosts them (those links may stop working later). With Include images (Pro), Talkmere saves a .zip with the Markdown file and an images/ folder.

Talkmere saves the open conversation from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Grok as Markdown, HTML or JSON for free, and as PDF or Word with Pro. It runs in your browser – nothing is uploaded.

Questions

Is the Markdown export really free?

Yes – Markdown, HTML, JSON and Copy are free with no limit on the number of exports.

Does it work for very long chats?

Yes. Talkmere first scrolls up to load older messages (you can turn that off), then exports everything.

Can I export many chats as Markdown at once?

Use ChatGPT's data export and the Talkmere collection page: single chats are free, a .zip of many is Pro.
