I built a Chrome extension that makes ChatGPT feel like it has infinite memory
Hey Indie Hackers đź‘‹
I recently built and launched ChatRelay, a Chrome extension that fixes one of the most annoying parts of using ChatGPT at scale:
👉 losing context when you hit conversation limits.
🧠The problem
If you use ChatGPT a lot (writing, coding, brainstorming), you’ve probably hit:
“You’ve reached the limit for this conversation”
Forced to start a new chat
Losing all context or manually copying everything
This breaks flow completely.
⚡ The solution: ChatRelay
ChatRelay automatically bridges the gap between sessions.
When a limit is reached, it:
Captures the full conversation
Opens a new ChatGPT session
Injects the entire context
Displays previous messages inline so it feels continuous
To the user, it feels like ChatGPT just… never stopped.
🔥 What makes it different
Works automatically (no manual copy/paste)
Multi-session chaining (infinite continuation)
Context preserved visually (“ghost messages”)
Fully local (no backend, no tracking)
Works in multiple languages
🧪 Why I built it
I was using ChatGPT for long dev + writing sessions and kept losing momentum every time I hit limits.
So I built something that makes ChatGPT behave like a persistent thinking partner instead of a session-based tool.
🚧 What I’m looking for
Feedback from power users
Ideas for monetization (if any)
Other painful ChatGPT workflows worth solving
If you’re interested in AI tools, dev tools, or browser extensions, I’d love your thoughts 🙏
