How to search

a few operators go a long way in a five-million-chat archive

search operators

hello worldAll words

Every word must appear in the message, in any order. More words means fewer, more specific results.

"hello world"Exact phrase

Wrap words in double quotes to match them together, in that order. Great for error messages and set phrases.

refund -paypalExclude a word

Put a minus directly before a word to hide messages that contain it.

refund -"store credit"Exclude a phrase

A minus works on quoted phrases too.

api "rate limit" -pythonCombine them

Mix and match: this finds messages mentioning api and the exact phrase “rate limit”, but never python.

good to know

Searching ignores case — “Hello” and “hello” are the same word.
While you type, the last word also matches longer words that start with it, so results appear before you finish.
Results are ranked by relevance: messages matching more of your words, more often, file to the top.
The chips under the search box narrow results further, by model, who is speaking, language, and flagged content.
On the free plan you get the first 5 matches per search and 3 searches a day — Pro removes both caps.
