Username + format. Pulls the public bookmark pages anyone can see.
Export ready
Built from your public AO3 bookmarks. File is assembled in your browser.
Export tools
History & private bookmarks
Needs you to be logged into AO3 in your own browser, so it’ll be a userscript — not this server.
Local tool coming soon
- Install Tampermonkey or Violentmonkey.
- Install the export script (link goes here when it’s ready).
- Log into AO3 as you normally do.
- Open History or Bookmarks and hit the Export button the script adds. File saves to your machine.
That script will stay on your computer; it won’t post your list here.
Notes
- This page never asks for your AO3 password. Public export uses the username only.
- Pages are fetched one at a time, slowly, so we don’t hammer AO3. Big lists can take a few minutes.
- The finished file is built in your browser; this site doesn’t keep a copy of your export.
- Not affiliated with AO3 or the Organization for Transformative Works. Follow AO3’s Terms and only export your own stuff.
What the CSV looks like
Sample Made-up rows so you can see the columns. Not real bookmarks.
| Title | Author | Link | Words | Tags | Bookmarked on |
|---|
How it works
Username
Type the AO3 name whose public bookmarks you want. Or wait for the local script if you need history / private ones.
Wait a bit
It walks bookmark pages with a short delay between each. Progress bar is honest about how far it got.
Download
Grab the CSV, the reading-list preview, or the link dump. Saved on your device.
After you export
About the “EPUB” option
It’s a reading list of titles and links (plain text for now), not the full stories. For actual offline reading, use AO3’s own download on each work, then send those files to Kindle or Calibre.
Spreadsheets
Open the CSV in Sheets / Excel / Numbers if you want to sort by word count or dig up that fic you bookmarked in 2019.
Keeping a copy elsewhere
Plain links or CSV are enough to rebuild a list in a notes app or another reader. Handy if the site’s having a bad week.
FAQ
Do I need my AO3 password?
No. Public bookmarks only need the username. The future local mode runs where you’re already logged in.
What can I export?
CSV, a plain-text reading-list preview (titles + links), and a simple list of URLs. Full EPUB zip isn’t built yet.
Private bookmarks and history?
Not from this page — those need a login. Local mode will handle that in your browser once the userscript is ready.
Why so slow?
One page at a time with a pause, on purpose. A few hundred bookmarks can take several minutes.
Do you store my list?
No. The file is put together in your browser. No accounts here.
AO3 is down — are my bookmarks gone?
Usually not; AO3 comes back. This tool is for keeping your own copy when the site is up again.
Kindle?
The preview file is titles and links, not full fics. For full stories, download each work from AO3, then use Send to Kindle or Calibre.
