ChatGPT Exporting from ChatGPT (OpenAI)
ChatGPT provides a built-in data export feature that packages all your conversations into a downloadable ZIP file containing a conversations.json file. Here's how to get it:
Go to chatgpt.com and log in to your account. Click on your profile avatar in the bottom-left corner, then select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
In the Settings panel, click "Data Controls" in the left sidebar. You'll see several data management options.
Click the "Export data" button. A confirmation dialog will appear asking you to verify. Click "Confirm export". OpenAI will begin preparing your data.
Within a few minutes to an hour (depending on your data size), you'll receive an email from OpenAI with a download link. Click it to download a ZIP file. The link expires after 24 hours, so download it promptly.
conversations.json file with all your chats. You can upload the entire ZIP to AI Wrapped — no need to extract it first.
Claude Exporting from Claude (Anthropic)
Anthropic provides a data export feature in Claude's settings. The process is straightforward:
Go to claude.ai and log in. Click on your initials or avatar in the bottom-left corner and select "Settings".
Navigate to the "Account" tab. Look for the "Export Data" or "Request my data" option. Click it to initiate the export process.
Claude will send an email with a download link containing your conversations in JSON format. The file structures include conversations.json along with project data. Download and upload the entire ZIP file to AI Wrapped.
Gemini Exporting from Google Gemini
Google Gemini data is exported through Google Takeout, Google's centralized data export tool. Here's the complete process:
Go to takeout.google.com and sign in with the Google account you use for Gemini.
Click "Deselect all" at the top to uncheck everything. Then scroll down and check "My Activity". Click "Multiple formats" and then "Activity Records" and make sure "Gemini Apps" is selected. You can also select "AI Mode" if you use that feature.
Scroll to the bottom and click "Next step", then choose your delivery method (email link is easiest). Select "Export once" and .zip format. Click "Create export".
Google will email you when your export is ready (usually within minutes). Download the ZIP file and upload it directly to AI Wrapped — the tool automatically finds the relevant MyActivity.json file inside the Takeout folder structure.
Tips for Clean Exports
- Upload the ZIP directly — AI Wrapped handles extraction automatically. No need to unzip and find specific files.
- Combine providers — Upload ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini files together for a unified cross-platform analysis.
- Larger exports = richer analysis — The more conversations you have, the more accurate your personality type, cognitive offload score, and knowledge graph will be.
- Media files are preserved — AI Wrapped detects and displays images/attachments that were shared in your conversations.
- File size limits — AI Wrapped processes everything in your browser, so very large exports (500MB+) may take longer. Most users' exports are well under 100MB.
Uploading to AI Wrapped
Once you have your export file(s), the upload process is simple:
- Go to aiwrapped.app and click "Get Started"
- Drag and drop your file(s) into the upload area, or tap to browse
- AI Wrapped will show chips for each detected file and provider
- Click "Analyze" when ready
- Watch the 13-step analysis process run in real-time
The entire analysis typically completes in 5–15 seconds, depending on the number of conversations. Your data never leaves your browser during any part of this process.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
"No valid AI conversation data found"
This usually means the uploaded file doesn't contain the expected conversation format. Make sure you're uploading the conversations.json file from ChatGPT, the export package from Claude, or the Google Takeout ZIP with Gemini data selected.
"File is too large"
If your browser struggles with very large exports, try closing other tabs to free memory. Modern browsers can handle hundreds of megabytes, but available memory varies by device.
"Export email hasn't arrived"
ChatGPT and Claude exports can take up to an hour for large accounts. Check your spam folder. Google Takeout usually delivers within minutes but can take longer during peak times.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I delete my export after analyzing?
Yes! Once you've seen your AI Wrapped results and saved your share card, you can safely delete the export files from your device. AI Wrapped doesn't store anything beyond the browser session.
Does AI Wrapped work on mobile?
Yes. AI Wrapped is fully responsive and works on phones and tablets. However, mobile browsers may have less memory available for processing very large exports. The 3D knowledge graph works best on desktop but is functional on mobile.
How often should I re-analyze?
We recommend running a fresh analysis every 2–3 months to see how your AI usage patterns evolve over time. As your personality type and cognitive offload score change, you can compare before and after.
