Can You Still Use Outlinesave After the 7-Day Free Trial?
Yes. Outlinesave still works after your 7-day Pro trial ends. You do not have to pay to keep using its core features. The Free plan includes conversation outlines, navigation, highlights, notes, bookmarks, and Markdown export. It also includes one offline HTML export per week.
When does the 7-day trial begin?
The trial does not automatically start when you install the extension. Currently, it starts when you first use the HTML export action in ChatGPT. During the trial, HTML exports are unlimited.
Other supported AI platforms can recognize an existing trial, but they do not independently start it. Each browser profile can start the trial once. When it expires, you can continue on the Free plan without reinstalling.
What stays free after the trial?
- Conversation outline and navigation: browse the two-level outline and jump to questions and answers.
- Highlights and notes: mark useful passages with four highlight colors, underlines, notes, and bookmarks.
- Markdown and JSON export: save reusable conversation files without using your HTML allowance.
- Offline HTML export: save one conversation as an offline HTML knowledge page per week, with navigation and annotations.
- Other currently available Free features: consult the extension for current entitlements; some search features may still be in public testing.
Outlinesave supports ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and DeepSeek. Controls and availability can vary slightly by platform.
When does the free HTML allowance reset?
The Free plan allows one HTML export per week, resetting Monday at 00:00 UTC. The allowance is shared across the four supported AI platforms, not one export per platform. A failed generation or download does not consume a successfully completed export.
If you only archive an important chat occasionally, the Free plan may be enough. If you regularly save research, study, or coding conversations, Pro removes the HTML export frequency limit.
Free vs. Trial vs. Pro
| Feature | Free | 7-day Trial | Pro |
|---|---|---|---|
| Outline, navigation, bookmarks | Included | Included | Included |
| Highlights, underlines, notes | Included | Included | Included |
| Markdown / JSON export | Does not use HTML allowance | Does not use HTML allowance | Does not use HTML allowance |
| Advanced offline HTML export | 1 per week | Unlimited | Unlimited |
Pro is not required to keep using Outlinesave. It is especially useful for people who export offline HTML pages frequently. Refer to the extension for current licensing and other Pro entitlements.
Why export to offline HTML?
An Outlinesave HTML export is more than a plain transcript. It creates an offline knowledge page that can retain the conversation outline, annotations, bookmarks, and relevant finding tools, with support for displaying code, math, and diagrams.
For example, after weeks of troubleshooting a coding problem in ChatGPT, you can highlight key conclusions, add notes, and export the discussion for later reference without searching through the original online chat.
Outlinesave is local-first and does not require a separate Outlinesave account. User-initiated operations such as Google Drive backup connect to the chosen external service.
Frequently asked questions
Will my outline and annotations disappear when the trial expires?
Trial expiration alone does not delete locally stored annotations. We still recommend backing up important material.
Can Free users export Markdown?
Yes. Markdown and JSON exports do not consume the weekly HTML allowance.
Does the free HTML allowance roll over?
It resets weekly on Monday UTC. Do not treat unused allowances as an indefinitely accumulating balance.
Do I need to reinstall or register?
No. Simply continue using the Free plan.
When should I upgrade to Pro?
Consider Pro if you frequently need multiple offline HTML exports within a week. For navigation, annotation, and occasional archiving, you can keep using Free.
