Features Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Features' aspect of each extension. | 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. ![]() Another useful feature is selecting whether only questions, answers, or both are output. ![]() | 9.2 Recall's range of functions is impressive for a relatively new tool. The AI summary works on a wide range of content, from articles to YouTube videos with a running time of several hours. We particularly liked the personal knowledge base and the way Recall automatically links related content. Spaced Repetition and Active Recall are outstanding features for students. However, some features are still in beta or will be available soon. The functions in the free version are severely limited in the number of users per day, and there is an upper limit for free use.

Performance Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Performance' aspect of each extension. | 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. Winner in this category | 9.0 Retrieval is fast and reliable in most cases. The summary is fast, even with very extreme examples such as a 9-hour news show that we had summarized in our test. Occasionally, we encountered errors or slowdowns, especially when asking further questions about the summarized content via the wizard. The team is actively working on performance improvements and there are regular updates. Overall, the tool feels stable and is suitable for everyday use. |
Design Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Design' aspect of each extension. | 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. Winner in this category | 9.0 The user interface has a clear and modern design. The focus is on user-friendliness. We found the browser extension intuitive and easy to navigate. The tagging and organization system can be used flexibly, and some users mentioned minor bugs in the user interface, but these were only minimally noticeable in the test. |
Value for Money Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Value for Money' aspect of each extension. | 9.5 The free version includes all functions; only a premium banner, which appears on PDFs in the footer, must be accepted. ![]() 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. Winner in this category | 8.1 The free tariff is suitable for infrequent users who do not need all the functions, as you will quickly reach the map limit. However, if you want to use the extension on a day-to-day basis, you cannot avoid the |
Ease of Use Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Ease of Use' aspect of each extension. | 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. Winner in this category | 8.0 An account is required to use Recall. However, due to the integration with a Google and Apple login, this should be easy for everyone. |
Security & Privacy Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Security & Privacy' aspect of each extension. | 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. | 9.9 Recall is characterized by its privacy-friendly approach. User data is not used by the extension for advertising, profiling, or AI training. All content is stored securely, and users retain full control over their data. Data can be exported for inspection or deleted at any time. The data protection guidelines are transparent, and support is always available to answer questions about data protection. We were unable to identify any uncertainties during our review. Winner in this category |

The browser extension makes it easy to capture content, and the revision features with auto-generated questions are a real bonus for learners.
