ChatGPT Bulk Delete Alternative: GPT Master for Chat Cleanup

Quick Answer

ChatGPT Bulk Delete (by qcrao) adds checkboxes to ChatGPT’s sidebar so you can delete many chats at once. Since version 7, released in October 2026, it asks you to sign in with Google first. Its bulk archive is part of its paid plans. GPT Master covers the same select-and-delete job with no sign-up step. It also moves a selection of chats into folders or ChatGPT Projects. It can finish a run that was cut short. GPT Master fits when you want to clear and sort your ChatGPT sidebar without a Google sign-in.

What ChatGPT can do on its own

As of November 2026, ChatGPT still has no way to pick several chats and delete them together. OpenAI’s help article on deleting and archiving chats lists three options:

• Delete or archive one chat at a time from its menu.
• Delete every chat at once in Settings > Data controls > Delete all chats.
• Archive every chat at once in Settings > Data controls > Archive all chats.

The two “all chats” actions also cover chats inside projects. A bulk delete extension fills the gap between one chat at a time and your whole history.

How bulk delete works in GPT Master

GPT Master adds its own sidebar panel next to your ChatGPT chat list. Selection happens there:

1. Hover a chat in the GPT Master sidebar to show its checkbox, then click to tick it.
2. Shift-click another chat to tick everything in between, or press Ctrl+A (Cmd+A on Mac) to select every chat shown in the sidebar.
3. A bar shows how many chats you selected, with Clear selection and More actions.
4. Click More actions, or right-click the selection, and choose Delete selected or Archive selected. The same menu has Move to Folder, Move to Project and Star selected.
5. Delete asks you to confirm once, because ChatGPT cannot undo a delete.

While a batch runs, a progress count shows and a Stop button lets you end it. If ChatGPT asks to slow down, GPT Master pauses, keeps your selection, and continues on its own. If ChatGPT keeps refusing, the run stops, the chats it did not reach stay untouched, and Retry the rest picks them up. If you close the tab mid-run, the sidebar later shows how many chats were not deleted and offers to finish them.

The ChatGPT bulk delete page shows the feature in action, and the step-by-step guide to deleting multiple chats covers the same flow.

Sort the chats you keep

A clean-up often means filing chats as well as deleting them. Select the chats you keep and choose Move to Folder to put them in a GPT Master folder, or Move to Project to put them in a ChatGPT Project. Folders stay in your browser and are never uploaded to our servers. After a move to a Project, refresh the page to see the chats there. The ChatGPT bulk actions page covers archive, move and star.

Who GPT Master fits

GPT Master fits people who sort their sidebar as well as clean it. It also has folders and subfolders, search, single-chat export to PDF, HTML or Markdown, timestamps, and a Minimap for long chats.
