What's coming

Q2 2026

Up next

Message bookmarks

Star individual messages within a conversation: key answers, useful prompts, things to find again. A dedicated Bookmarks view collects them across all conversations.

Bulk operations

Multi-select conversations to bulk tag, bulk export, or bulk delete. Essential for anyone with hundreds or thousands of imports.

Conversation notes

Freetext notes per conversation, stored locally and synced with your vault.

More platforms

Perplexity AI next, followed by Mistral/Le Chat, Microsoft Copilot, and Meta AI as their export formats become stable.

Q3 2026

Planned

Filtered & bulk export

Export an entire tag, a filtered view, or a multi-conversation selection, not just one at a time.

Intel Mac support

A native build for older Intel MacBooks delivered via the same in-app update pipeline.

Keyboard-first navigation

Full keyboard shortcut coverage, command palette, and power-user navigation.

PDF export

Export conversations as formatted PDFs for archiving or sharing outside the app.

Q4 2026

Planned

Mobile app

iOS and Android. The same privacy-first experience on your phone, with import via the native Files app share sheet.

Public conversation sharing

Generate a read-only share link for any conversation. Useful for sharing interesting AI interactions in blog posts or with anyone outside your team.

Auto-tagging suggestions

Use the embedded semantic model to group related conversations and suggest tags. No external API calls. Runs locally.

2027

Exploring

Browser extension

Capture conversations from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Grok as you have them. No ZIP export needed.

Custom parser API

Define your own parser for any AI tool. Use Chat Locker with any platform, not just the ones we've built for.

Conversation history & diffs

Re-import exports and see what's changed since last time: new conversations, continued threads.

Workflow integrations

Trigger Zapier, Make, or n8n automations when conversations are imported, tagged, or shared.

Timelines are estimates and may shift. Features in "Exploring" are not committed.
