BlockBeats News, on March 2nd, Anthropic was reported to have launched a prompt tool for “exporting ChatGPT memory data,” helping users migrate historical memory information to its model Claude, attracting industry attention.
According to publicly available information, this tool allows users to export their memory data from OpenAI’s ChatGPT by copying and pasting specific prompts, then import it into Claude. Discussions suggest that this move is seen as directly weakening ChatGPT’s user stickiness and switching costs, which rely on its “memory function.”
Market opinions believe that the memory mechanism is considered an important competitive moat for large model products—longer user engagement leads to deeper understanding of preferences, context, and past conversations, increasing migration costs. If third-party tools can facilitate easy data transfer, it could change the current user lock-in logic of AI products.
Meanwhile, reports also mention that Anthropic was previously restricted from use by the U.S. Department of Defense-related systems, but the company’s popularity and attention have rapidly risen, topping some app charts.
Currently, the specific compliance and platform responses regarding this tool are not clear. Industry generally believes that competition among large models has shifted from performance to ecosystem and data sovereignty, with user data portability potentially becoming a key variable in the next phase.
