Anthropic adds memory import feature for switching from ChatGPT/Gemini to Claude

Anthropic has released a memory import feature that simplifies switching from other AI assistants like ChatGPT or Gemini to Claude by transferring existing context and preferences.

How the memory import works

The process involves three specific steps:

• Visit claude.com/import-memory and copy the provided prompt
• Paste that prompt into your current AI assistant (ChatGPT, Gemini, or others) - it will output your saved memories and context in a single response
• Copy that output and paste it into Claude's memory settings under the Capabilities section

Claude immediately updates its memory and continues where you left off with the previous AI.

Requirements and limitations

Full memory features require a Pro, Max, or Team plan. The feature is designed to reduce friction for users who have built up significant context in other AI systems but want to switch to Claude without starting over.
