FAQs

I clicked "Export chat" and got "This chat has nothing to export yet." Why?

The chat has no messages with text, for example, because it was never used or every reply failed. Send a message, then export again.

I got "Could not export this chat" or "Could not export the document."

Loading the content, building the file, or downloading it failed. Check your connection and try again. If it keeps failing, contact support and say which chat or document you're working on.

Where did my file go? I didn't see a Save as window.

In Firefox and Safari, and in Chromium browsers where the Save as window is turned off, files go to your Downloads folder.

Do tracked changes survive the download?

Yes. Downloading a document you are editing keeps its tracked changes, so you or a colleague can accept or reject them in Word.

Why don't the citation numbers in my export match the chat?

In Noxtua, each answer numbers its own sources. In the export, numbering runs across the whole chat, so a source keeps one number everywhere and is listed once.

Why does my export say it's AI-generated?

Article 50 of the EU AI Act requires AI-generated content to be identifiable. Noxtua records this in the file's properties, not in the visible content.

Can I export several chats at once?

No. Chats are exported one at a time.
