Features
9.0

The extension offers good features for exporting ChatGPT information, which should be sufficient for most user requirements. The ability to export to multiple formats is particularly valuable. The test showed that the formatting and layout work well and are better than the possible outputs from ChatGPTs themselves. It also helps that you can select many settings for the PDF layout beforehand.

Choice of answer and Question

Another useful feature is selecting whether only questions, answers, or both are output.

Settings PDF

6.0

New Tab Draft offers basic note-taking functionality, local storage for privacy, and some customization options. However, it lacks advanced features like rich text formatting and cloud sync.

Performance
9.7

The extension worked reliably and without any problems during the test. The export processes are fast and efficient, and we didn't have to wait long for the export, even during longer conversations. We did not notice any crashes or significant bugs during the test.

8.5

The extension is fast and efficient, with minimal lag or performance issues.

Design
9.5

The user interface is clear and intuitive. The export button is perfectly integrated into the ChatGPT environment, so it seems like it belongs there. However, the general design could be freshened up a bit.

7.5

The design is simple and clean, with options for customization. However, it's not particularly aesthetic or modern.

Value for Money
9.5

The free version includes all functions; only a premium banner, which appears on PDFs in the footer, must be accepted.

Premium Banner

As this is relatively unobtrusive, it should not be a problem for regular private users. For private users who only want to output PDFs occasionally (up to 3 times a day), the free version offers excellent value for money. If you want to continue using the files for business purposes, for example, and want to make the banner disappear, or simply want to export a higher number of PDFs per day, the prices of $1.99 for 30 PDFs per day or $2.99 for 100 PDFs per day are perfectly fine.
Overall, we believe that the tool offers very good value for money for every user.

8.5

As a completely free tool, it offers good value for those who need basic note-taking features.

However, even though it's free, we don't see too much value in this tool. As there are similar free New Tab extensions out there, we can not give the highest rating.

Ease of Use
9.5

Installation is straightforward, and the tool requires minimal setup. Once installed, an export button appears, which is fairly self-explanatory. The export process is as simple as clicking a button, and the various format options are displayed. The tutorial at the beginning also helps new users to understand all the functions in just a few seconds.

9.0

The tool is very straightforward with a minimal learning curve. Its simplicity is both a strength and a limitation.

Security & Privacy
9.3

The extension only accesses ChatGPT conversations and does not collect unnecessary data outside. Export files are then processed locally, ensuring data privacy. The tool has a clear privacy policy and does not require excessive permissions to be agreed to.

9.5

All notes are stored locally, ensuring high privacy. There are no concerns about data being uploaded to the cloud.

Conclusion

After extensive testing, we can recommend ChatGPT Exporter to anyone who uses ChatGPT regularly. The tool fills a crucial gap that was often laboriously filled by copying and pasting and makes it easy to preserve and share your conversations.
The free version should be sufficient for most private users, but the prices are perfectly fine if this is not the case. We particularly appreciate the uncomplicated pricing model and the fact that there are no hidden costs.
Even if competitors offer similar products with possibly even more functions, the overall experience is positive, and it is precisely this clarity and simplicity that makes the tool stand out.

New Tab Draft is great for those who prefer a simple, no-frills note-taking tool. While it may not offer much beyond basic note-taking, its privacy features and ease of use make it a solid choice, especially since it's free.

User reviews are very good with an average of 4.8 stars in the Chrome Web Store. Many users love its simplicity and effectiveness. However, it might not provide enough value for those looking for more advanced features.

In our tests, we weren't fully convinced and found ourselves leaning toward more aesthetically pleasing New Tab Extensions that offer a few basic features.
