Bring your browsing history.

Bookmarks tell us what you’re proud of saving. History tells us what you actually read. Export the file from your browser, drop it here — Brainprint reads it server-side and discards the raw rows once the portrait is built.

    1. Quit Chrome completely (Cmd-Q on Mac, full quit on Windows).
    2. Open Finder/Explorer and navigate to the profile folder below.

    4. Drag that copy into the upload box on the right.

    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/History · Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\History

  2. 02

    Brave

    1. Quit Brave fully.
    2. Open the profile folder (path below) and copy the History file.

    Arc

    1. Quit Arc fully.

  6. 06

    Safari

    1. Quit Safari fully.
    2. In Finder: ⌘⇧G, paste ~/Library/Safari/, hit return.

Why a file?

Browsers don’t expose history to web pages — for good reason. The cleanest path is the file itself: you see exactly what you’re sharing, you can inspect it before sending, and Brainprint never touches your live profile.
