Context-Aware Verdict

CRITICAL
Overall Risk
Trust Factors: The extension has a solid user base of 20,000 users with a high rating of 4.7 from 295 reviews, suggesting legitimate functionality. The purpose of exporting AI chat conversations to various formats (PDF, Markdown, Notion) appears reasonable and useful. However, the developer information is limited to just a domain name (saveai.net), which provides minimal transparency about the company behind the extension.
Concerns: The extension requests extremely broad permissions that far exceed what's necessary for its stated purpose. The universal host permissions (*://*/*) combined with content script injection capabilities create a significant security risk, as the extension can access and modify any website you visit. The cookies permission is particularly concerning as it could be used to access sensitive authentication data. The tabs permission allows monitoring of your browsing activity across all websites. While the extension targets specific AI platforms, the broad permissions suggest it could collect data from any site you visit.
Recommendations: Given the critical risk level, consider running this extension in a completely separate Chrome profile dedicated only to AI chat platforms. Before installation, verify the developer's legitimacy by checking saveai.net. Monitor the extension's behavior closely and consider alternatives with more restrictive permissions. If you must use it, regularly review what data it might be accessing and consider using it only when actively exporting AI conversations, disabling it otherwise.
