Works where you work

The extension lives inside chatgpt.com and claude.ai and matches each site's native UI. Nothing new to learn.

Privacy first

Your conversations never leave your browser

Most "AI chat organizers" pipe your conversations through their servers. We built this the other way around. Conversation text is read locally only to render the sidebar and generate exports. Nothing is stored beyond folder names and conversation IDs, and nothing is transmitted.

Everything lives inside your browser's local extension storage. We operate no servers to store your data.

  • Conversation text is processed locally in your browser only
  • No analytics or tracking scripts injected into ChatGPT or Claude
  • Everything is stored in your browser's local extension storage — we run no servers
  • Export your data anytime as Markdown or JSON
  • Payments handled by Lemon Squeezy; we never see your card details

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Something else on your mind? Email support@northlabapps.com — a human answers.

Does the extension read my conversations?

It processes conversation text inside your browser to power folders and export. That text never leaves your machine. Our servers never see it, full stop.

What happens if I cancel Pro?

You keep the free tier (3 folders) and all your data. Folders beyond the limit become read-only until you upgrade again or reorganize. Nothing is deleted.

Is Lifetime really lifetime?

Yes. Pay once — $59 at the launch price (regularly $79) — and every future Pro feature is included for the life of the product. No subscription, no renewal.

Which browsers are supported?

NorthLab Folders is cross-platform. On Windows, macOS, and Linux it runs in any Chromium-based browser from the Chrome Web Store — Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc, and Opera. On macOS it also ships as a signed, notarized Safari app you download direct.

Email us within 14 days of purchase and you get a full refund, no questions asked. See the refund policy for details.
