✨ Key Features

Note: Saved links automatically include the page's plain text content for easy searching and viewing later.

4. One-Click Export Web Page as PDF or Image

WiseMindAI now supports one-click export of web page content as PDF or image. While preserving the original layout and key content, it's convenient for offline reading, document archiving, or secondary sharing, especially suitable for knowledge collection and long-term preservation.

5. One-Click Import WeChat Saved Links

WiseMindAI browser extension (v0.1.3) supports one-click import of WeChat saved article links, quickly consolidating scattered quality content from WeChat into WiseMindAI for organization, summarization, and deep learning, truly connecting the "Save → Learn → Reuse" workflow.

Usage instructions:

5.1 How to Use

First, you need to log in to "WeChat File Transfer Assistant Web" in your browser at: https://filehelper.weixin.qq.com/

Then, from WeChat saved items, select the links you want to import to WiseMindAI and forward them to "File Transfer Assistant":

Then return to the "WeChat File Transfer Assistant Web" page, right-click on a blank area, and click the "One-Click Save Public Account Links" button. The WiseMindAI browser extension will automatically open all pages and save them to the WiseMindAI client. Just wait for the automatic transfer to complete:

If you encounter an error message on first use, you can click the "One-Click Save Public Account Links" button again. After successful saving, WiseMindAI will automatically refresh the file list, and you can see these links have been saved:

Note: Currently, only link cards are supported, i.e., page links forwarded through page details, such as public account articles.

Support for text, images, link text, etc., will be added in the future.

5.2 My Thoughts

To be honest, limited by WeChat's current level of ecosystem openness, this is indeed a compromise technical solution. However, from a knowledge management perspective, this "active trigger" mechanism actually has unique value. It gives everyone the opportunity for "secondary screening," rejecting unconscious bulk hoarding, and only storing content that you have reviewed and believe has long-term value into WiseMindAI.

Chris hopes your knowledge base is a "treasure trove" of essence, not another "bookmark folder" that only collects but never reads.

A high signal-to-noise ratio, uncluttered knowledge base is far more beneficial for subsequent review and use than a massive accumulation of links.
