A Chrome extension to organise your ChatGPT conversations into folders and bring order to sprawling threads — all from inside the ChatGPT sidebar.
- 🧲 Drag-and-drop conversations anywhere in the sidebar for total ordering control.
- 🗂️ Create folders with unlimited nesting (folders within folders) and inline rename.
- 🎨 Change folder appearance and colour using the built-in picker.
- 📌 Keep folders pinned at the top, or allow fully custom sorting.
- 🔄 Sync folder structure automatically across Chrome sessions.
- 🔐 Full respect for user privacy and conversation history (details below).
Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store:

ChatGPT Folders is designed with privacy first.
The extension never reads, stores, or shares any of your ChatGPT conversation text.
It only saves the minimal information required to organise your sidebar:
- folder names, colours, and structure
- your UI preferences
- ChatGPT conversation IDs only - no titles or content
The extension does not access chat messages, personal information, or anything you type into ChatGPT.
No data is ever sent to external servers — everything stays inside Chrome’s sync storage under your Google account and can be cleared at any time.
If you wish to review the data, you can download a copy at any time from the extension’s settings.
