PostMind is now ContexIn.
free tool · no account required · Chrome only
LinkedIn has no native export for your saved posts. The free ContexIn Chrome extension lets you back up all your saved posts to a portable JSON file in 3 steps — keeping your curated knowledge safe even if LinkedIn changes or you lose access.
Works on any LinkedIn account. Captures text, author, date and URL. Completely free.

01 why back up
LinkedIn's saved posts feature is a powerful curation tool — but LinkedIn provides no official way to export or back up what you've saved. If you lose account access, LinkedIn changes the feature, or you simply want to use your saved content in other tools, your curated archive could disappear overnight.
ContexIn solves this with a free Chrome extension that reads your saved posts directly from the LinkedIn page and exports them as a structured JSON file you own. No API keys, no account for the export — just a clean backup you control.
02 the 3 steps
1 step
Download the free extension (no account needed) and load it into Chrome via chrome://extensions → Load unpacked. It is 8KB and runs only on LinkedIn.
2 step
Navigate to linkedin.com/my-items/saved-posts and click the ContexIn icon in your Chrome toolbar. Hit Collect — ContexIn captures all visible saved posts including author, content, and metadata. Scroll down to load more, collect again, repeat.

The source page is linkedin.com/my-items/saved-posts/ and the export lands as contexin-saved-posts.json.
3 step
Once collected, click Download JSON to save your LinkedIn saved posts as a clean, structured file on your computer. Each post includes text, author, date, URL, and extracted topics — your complete off-platform backup.
03 questions
| Does LinkedIn allow exporting saved posts? | LinkedIn's native data download (Settings → Data Privacy → Get a copy of your data) does not include saved posts. This is a known gap. The ContexIn extension reads your saved posts directly from the LinkedIn page and exports them client-side — no API access, no terms violation. |
| What does the JSON export contain? | Each saved post record includes: post text/content, author name and URL, post URL, date saved, and extracted topics. The file is clean, structured JSON that can be opened in any text editor, imported into spreadsheets, or processed by scripts. |
| Is this really free? | Yes — downloading and exporting to JSON is completely free and requires no account. The free extension also works offline after installation. The local MCP server, which lets Claude or ChatGPT query your export, is free forever too. Pro is only the hosted endpoint, which saves you the Node.js and terminal setup. You can try it for 7 days without a card; keeping it costs $5, paid once, for lifetime access. |
| How do I back up all my saved posts, not just the visible ones? | LinkedIn loads saved posts in batches. To capture all of them: scroll down to load more posts, then click Collect again. Repeat until you've loaded everything. Each Collect run merges new posts into the same collection, so you won't get duplicates. |

The free export gives you the JSON file, and the free local MCP server connects it to Claude Desktop, ChatGPT and any MCP-compatible AI — so you can ask questions, surface insights and build agents grounded in your own curated content. Pro is the hosted version of that endpoint, for people who would rather not run a local server.
