Thanks to the generous usage of Codex, I didn't need to go bankrupt for this app.

I built this app to help me stop losing great answers in long ChatGPT conversations.

I am a heavy ChatGPT user and frustrated that when ChatGPT gives me a really good answer, it is very easy to get buried somewhere inside a 200-message lengthy conversation

The longer the conversation gets, the harder it becomes to find it again.

1. Pinning is not useful, because ChatGPT only allows you to pin 10 chats max.
2. Bookmark is a workaround. However, I still need to scroll up and down to find the specific answer I am looking for.
3. Ctrl+F needs me to remember the exact wording. One word off, returns nothing.

So I used codex to built the ChatVault, a highlighter for messages and text selections inside ChatGPT.

now i can highlight anything → tag it → find it later in a local knowledge base.

i can also organize those clips by project / by tag.

I also built a feature that allows me to jump back to the SPECIFIC location of my highlighted answer in a long chat.

In a 60,000-word conversation, ChatGPT’s 14th response might contain eight bullet points, but only the sixth is what I actually need.

ChatVault lets me jump directly to that exact bullet point, the exact location in that super long chat.

i saw multiple similar complaints before but it seems OpenAI doesn’t really want to address it (perhaps because releasing Codex on mobile is a higher priority for them), so i hope this tool can give everyone a better experience. Hopefully, people find it useful to navigate long conversations.

Support: ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Grok, and Google AI Studio.

As a heavy Gemini user, I am frustrated that when gemini gives me a really good answer, it is very easy to get buried in the chat history.

Pinning/unpinning the chat is a workaround, because now I have over 90 pinned chats, and each of those pinned chats is very long, covering multiple topics and discussed in depth.

bookmark is okay. but i still need to scroll up and down to find the specific answer i am looking for.

Ctrl+F isn't very helpful. gemini doesn't load the entire chat at once, i have to manually keep scrolling up to force older messages to load. If it's not loaded yet, a keyword search won't do anything.

So I built ChatVault. It’s a highlighter for messages and text selections inside Gemini.

It is simple: highlight anything → tag it → find it later in a local, searchable knowledge base.

now i can organize those clips by project / by tag.

I also built a function that allows me to jump back to the SPECIFIC location of my highlighted answer in a long chat.

In a 60,000-word conversation, Gemini’s 14th response might contain 8 bullet points, and only bullet #6 is the thing i actually need.

ChatVault lets me jump directly to that exact bullet point, the exact location in that super long chat, like those fluorescent flag tabs i stick on in a textbook.

i saw multiple similar complaints in this subreddit before but it seems google don't really want to address it (maybe because this is not their top priority compared to releasing gemini 3.2), so i hope this tool can give everyone a better experience. hopefully people find it useful to navigate long conversations.

It supports not only Gemini but also Claude, ChatGPT, and Perplexity, so now I feel like everything across different platforms finally comes together.

Switch to the Codex immediately

For a while I had a problem I’ve also seen people mention in this subreddit: losing great Perplexity answers in long chats and having no easy way to find them again.

I use perplexity almost like a research / search engine. The value is not only the answer itself, but also the original sources, links, pages, data points, and references behind it.

I often need to refer back to the exact source.

bookmarks helped a bit, but now I have almost 100 bookmarked chats, many of them insanely long and covering multiple topics in one conversation.

Ctrl+F only works if I remember the exact wording. Most of the time I just remember the meaning. One word off, and Ctrl+F gives nothing.

So I built ChatVault. It is a highlighter tool for Perplexity chats. You can highlight exact text, tag it, and organize it into a local knowledge base, kind of like Finder on Mac.

I also added a feature that allows you to jump back to the exact location of your highlighted text inside a 60,000 words long conversation.

I saw similar complaints here before, but it seems Perplexity don't really want to address it (maybe because this is not their top priority compared to Personal Computer / Comet).

So I genuinely hope this can fix the gap and people find valuable to navigate long chats and keep track of useful answers and sources.

I built it mainly because I needed this for my own Perplexity research history, but it also works with ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok, and Google AI Studio.

I’ve noticed that when a conversation in Google Antigravity becomes very long, loading the chat starts taking a really long time, almost frozen:

In some cases, it does not load properly at all and shows a message asking me to close the window or take some other action.

Has anyone found a reliable way to fix or avoid this?

Gemini passed the test! other models will actually get into a really weird rabbit hole lol

------

Wow this blew up! Sure gemini can be hilarious like this. But it also gives me some really really good answers for actual work. But Gemini does not have "folder" or "project", those golden answers just get buried in the long chat history so easily.

I tried to pin the chats, but that feels like a workaround because now i am sitting on almost 100 pinned chats, each one insanely long and covering multiple topics in depth.

Ctrl+F is not very helpful especially with gemini because gemini does not load the full chat at once, you need to scroll up manually to load the older messages.

That is why I built the ChatVault. it is a highlighter tool for my gemini chats. i can just highlight the exact message, tag it, and organize them in a local knowledge base and organize them like Finder on Mac.

I also include the feature that allows you to jump back to the exact location of your highlighted text inside a 60,000 words long conversation.

I saw multiple similar complaints in this subreddit before, so i hope people can find this helpful to navigate long chats in gemini and have a better experience!

ChatGPT has finally lost its temper lol. Feel like ChatGPT is the most patient one among all the chatbots.

I'm a heavy ChatGPT user. for a while I had the same problem I kept seeing other users mention here: ChatGPT gives you a genuinely great answer buried somewhere inside a 200-message conversation. The longer the conversation gets, the harder it becomes to find it again.

The thing is, no AI platform solves this. ChatGPT doesn't.

My previous workaround was manually copying and pasting things into Google Docs.

I even have a dedicated "ChatGPT" bookmark folder. but bookmarking a conversation only tells you which chat, not where inside it. You still end up scrolling for minutes (even I am certain that the things i am trying to retrieve is somewhere in this super long chat).

So I built ChatVault. It’s a highlighter for messages and text selections inside ChatGPT (also works with Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity).

The idea is simple: highlight anything → tag it → find it later in a local, searchable knowledge base.

You can organize those clips by project / by tag.

I also built a function that allows you to jump back to the SPECIFIC location of your highlighted answer in a long chat.

In a 20,000-word chat, ChatGPT’s 14th response might contain 8 bullet points, and only bullet #6 is the thing you actually need. ChatVault lets you jump directly to that exact bullet point, not just the message, like those fluorescent flag tabs you stick on in a textbook.

I hope this tool can help people to quickly navigate long conversations instead of scrolling through thousands of tokens.

I personally use it to clip ChatGPT's best explanations when studying, or save a really good solution that i want to refer later.

It supports not only ChatGPT but also Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity, so now I feel everything across different platforms comes together.

I'm a heavy Claude user. for a while I had the similar problem that I saw other users in this subreddit have: Claude gives you a genuinely great answer buried somewhere in a 200 message conversation. The longer conversations get, the harder it becomes to find it again.

The thing is, no AI platform solves this. Claude doesn't.

Ctrl+f is okay unless you remember the exact key words or the wording of a sentence, like how it was originally written.

But more often it just the general meaning. paraphrasing is not enough because one word off, and Ctrl+F won’t find anything.

So I built ChatVault. It is a highlighter for messages and text selections for Claude (but also works in ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity).

The idea is simple: highlight anything → tag it → find it later in a local, searchable knowledge base.

I hope this tool can help people to quickly navigate long conversations instead of scrolling through thousands of tokens.

I personally use it to clip Claude's best explanations when studying, or save a really well-written bulletpoints that i want to refer later when writing.

It supports not only Claude but also ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity, so now I feel everything across different platforms comes together.

Built this with Claude's help.

For anyone just joining: original post https://np.reddit.com/r/aznidentity/comments/1svm63u/asian_founder_turned_away_from_silicon_valleys/

Short version — I was turned away from a16z's Speedrun Cafe for "already attending this week." A white founder who did the same thing walked right in.

Here's what's happened since — because the people who showed up deserve to know what their support did.

This community and others pushed my reply under a16z's pinned Speedrun recruitment post on X from the bottom to the #1 most-liked — above a16z's own General Partners.

That post was their primary marketing material for the accelerator. Anyone clicking in to learn about program would see the discrimination callout before anything else.

No response. No explanation. No apology. They unpinned the post and buried it deep in their timeline.

In its place: a new promotional video, captioned "Why not you?"

I've now replied directly under it. The full documented account is there, publicly visible.

(see image)

Over the past few days, many of you have reached out sharing similar experiences.

That made one thing clear: this isn't about one incident. This is bigger than me.

If a16z is held accountable and commits to doing better, everyone benefits.

That's the change worth pushing for, and I'm not going anywhere.

Call to Action:

Help push the reply to the top of their new pinned post.

If they choose to stay silent, let's make sure it’s the first thing anyone visiting their page reads.

You can't ask for our hard work and innovation while turning us away at the front desk.

A simple like keeps this right at the top of their primary marketing material.

Quick update: I gave a16z an entire business day (Monday) to reach out. My reply is still the top-liked comment under their PINNED Speedrun recruitment thread, above their own General Partners.

They can't have missed it, yet no one reached out.

I've now posted the full documented account on LinkedIn for the broader professional community.

Asian founders are systematically underrepresented in top-tier VC funding. When bias happens in plain sight and a firm with a16z's platform responds with silence, it sends a message to every Asian founder in their pipeline: don't expect accountability.

Call to Action (takes 2 minutes):

Please help: comment, repost, or save the post — any one of them makes a difference.

https://www.linkedin.com/posts/williamlau01_last-friday-i-was-turned-away-from-a16zs-ugcPost-7454625403836583936-Q3C9?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAE05K5gB5xA5sXLyBleTrVA5nYwzY-XhL0Q

Silence works when we let it. Let's not.

For background: a16z (Andreessen Horowitz) is one of the most powerful investment firms in Silicon Valley. They invest in startups, and getting access to their events is a big deal for founders trying to build their companies.

This week, a16z hosted an event called "Speedrun Cafe" in San Francisco. Startup founders can come in, pitch their products, and meet potential investors and customers. You sign up on an event platform called Partiful, get approved, and show up.

Another founder (a white guy) and I both attended the cafe once earlier this week — him on Tuesday, me on Thursday.

We both signed up again for Friday. Both got approved.

On Friday, he walked in to the event and got to onboard more customers. He even posted about it on his X (Twitter) afterward.

I was turned away at the front desk by a16z staff, told I "already attended once this week."

Same event. Same rules. Same approval.

He's white. I'm Asian.

I posted about this on X (Twitter). The post is going to get buried. Find me on X and help make sure this doesn't get swept under the rug.

Even a like or repost helps.

My DMs are open on both Reddit and X (W_Liu_). If you're a journalist or have media connections, I'd welcome the conversation.
