Export my data
Your data is yours — Slima provides a complete one-click export that takes everything: books, AI chats, settings.
How to export
Account → Danger Zone → "Export data" → "Generate export"
Slima packs everything in the background (time varies with account size), then emails you a download link when it's done.
What's included
The export zip structure:
slima-export-{YYYY-MM-DD}/
├── books/
│ ├── book-1/
│ │ ├── metadata.json
│ │ ├── chapters/...
│ │ ├── notes/...
│ │ └── versions/...
│ └── book-2/
├── chats/
│ └── ai-coach-history.json
├── reports/
│ └── ai-beta-readers/...
├── settings/
│ ├── preferences.json
│ └── ai-memory.json
└── README.md
Each book has full chapters, notes, and version history; AI chats are organized per thread; reports are organized per book / per run.
What's not included
| Not exported | Where to get it / why |
|---|---|
| Subscription / billing records | Pull from Stripe Customer Portal yourself |
| API tokens (plaintext) | Hashed at rest — even we can't recover them |
| Comments on share links | Belong to the share session, not "your data" |
How big and how long
This varies a lot by account size — rough estimates:
| Account activity | Typical size | Generation time |
|---|---|---|
| A few books, light use | Tens of MB | A minute or two |
| Dozens of books + many AI chats | Hundreds of MB | A few to ten minutes |
| Heavy user + many readings | Several GB | Ten to thirty minutes |
Download link lifetime
The link in the email is time-limited — missed it? Just generate another, there's no cap on attempts.
Export ≠ delete account
Exporting only makes a copy — your account stays active, nothing changes.
To actually leave Slima, run the separate Delete account flow. Strongly recommended to export before deleting.
