Introducing Universal Import: Bring Your ChatGPT and Gemini Memories Home to Genie
Stop fragmenting your thoughts across different AI platforms. Consolidate your history and jumpstart Genie’s memory of you in minutes.#
Let’s face it: you probably cheat on Genie.
You have long coding threads in ChatGPT, brainstorming sessions in Claude, and deep research dives in Google Gemini. We get it—different models have different strengths.
But this creates a problem: Context fragmentation.
When you switch platforms, you start from zero. You have to re-explain your project goals, your coding style preferences, and the backstory of what you’re working on. Your valuable conversational history is trapped in silos.
Today, we are tearing down those silos.#
We are thrilled to introduce Genie Universal Import, a new module that allows you to take ownership of your data and consolidate your conversational history into one powerful, unified Memory Bank.
It’s More Than Just Storage. It’s Memory.#
When you import your history from other platforms, Genie doesn't just shove the text into a dusty archive.
Our import engine actively processes your old conversations to kickstart Genie’s understanding of you. During the import process, Genie will:
- Index your history for semantic search (so you can find that one idea from six months ago).
- Extract key facts about your projects and goals.
- Learn your preferences and communication style.
By importing your history, you are effectively giving Genie months (or years) of context about who you are in a matter of minutes.
Here is how to get started.#
Part 1: Exporting Your Data#
First, you need to liberate your data from the other platforms. It’s easier than you think.
🟢 How to export from OpenAI (ChatGPT)
OpenAI makes it relatively simple to get a copy of every conversation you've ever had with them.
- Log in to ChatGPT and click on your profile icon in the bottom left.
- Go to Settings & Beta > Data controls.
- Click the Export data button.
- Confirm the request. OpenAI will email you a link when your download is ready (this can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours depending on your history size).
- Download the
.zipfile from the email.
(Note: You don't even need to unzip it! Genie's smart importer can handle the whole archive.)
🔵 How to export from Google Gemini
Google uses its standard "Takeout" service for Gemini data.
- Head over to Google Takeout.
- At the top of the list, click Deselect all (otherwise you'll download your entire Google life!).
- Scroll down alphabetically until you find Gemini Apps and check the box next to it.
- Scroll to the very bottom and click Next step.
- Choose "Send download link via email" and click Create export.
- Wait for the email and download your
.zipfile.
Part 2: Importing into Genie#
Now for the easy part. We’ve built a new "Smart Drop Zone" that handles the heavy lifting for you.
- Log in to Genie and navigate to Settings > Data & Memory.
- Look for the new Import History section.
- Simply drag the
.zipfile you downloaded from ChatGPT or Gemini directly onto the drop zone.
Genie’s smart detection will automatically analyze the file structure to figure out which platform it came from.
Review the summary and click Start Import.
Watch as Genie processes your history. You'll see real-time metrics showing you exactly what's happening:
✅ Processing: 1,420 Conversations found...
✅ Parsing: 25,300 Messages processed...
🧠 Learning: 185 New Facts & Memories extracted!
Once complete, your historical data is instantly searchable within Genie, and your Memory Bank will be richer with new context about you.
Take Control of Your Context#
Your conversational history is valuable intellectual property. It contains your ideas, your work, and your thought processes. We believe you should own that data and be able to use it wherever you choose.
Universal Import is currently compatible with OpenAI and Google Gemini, with support for Anthropic Claude and others rolling out soon.
Go to your settings and give Genie a memory boost today.
