# Memory Vaults: Backup your chatGPT > Memory should be portable. Now it is. **Published by:** [Memory Protocol](https://paragraph.com/@mem/) **Published on:** 2025-07-09 **URL:** https://paragraph.com/@mem/memory-vaults-backup-your-chatgpt ## Content You can now make your ChatGPT memory portable with Memory Vaults and MCP. LLMs are getting to know us... incredibly well. The more context we provide them, the more I become afraid of being dependent on a single provider due to my memory being locked in. With Memory Vaults that's no longer going to be cause for concern. Today you can export your conversations.json, plug it into the Memory MCP on your desktop, and use your chatGPT history with other, MCP compatible LLM services, like Claude or Cursor. Your AI history moves with you and stays useful. Memory @MemoryProtocol Your Memory Vault is fully private and encrypted When you upload your ChatGPT history, it looks like this. Secure. Private. Yours. 18 8:57 AM • Jun 24, 2025 Everything's encrypted end-to-end. Encryption happens in the browser using your own key pair. No one else can see it. Not us, not the apps. Just you.
