Data Transfer Guide

GhostAI allows limited data export through Settings > Export Data. You can download templates and custom responses as text files, but usage history and learned preferences cannot be exported. Friday AI doesn't support direct import of GhostAI data files. To transfer data: 1) Export GhostAI templates as text files, 2) Manually recreate each template in Friday AI's template manager, 3) Copy tone preferences and response patterns by documenting your most common edits in GhostAI, 4) Recreate any saved responses in Friday AI's quick response library. The transfer is primarily manual since both tools use proprietary AI models that can't share learned behavior. Focus on transferring template content rather than trying to replicate exact AI behavior.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I transfer my data from GhostAI to Friday AI?+

You can transfer templates and saved responses manually, but usage history and learned preferences cannot be transferred. Both tools use different AI models, so you'll need to train Friday AI with your communication style.

How long does migration take?+

For individual users, expect 2-3 days including setup and initial training. The parallel running period where you use both tools typically adds 1-2 weeks to ensure quality before full switchover.

Will I lose any features switching to Friday AI?+

Yes, you'll lose multi-platform support (LinkedIn, Slack) as Friday AI focuses exclusively on Gmail. However, you gain deeper Gmail integration and simpler workflow for email-specific tasks.

Can I use both tools during migration?+

Absolutely. We recommend running both tools in parallel for 1-2 weeks to compare responses and train Friday AI. This ensures no disruption to your communication quality during transition.

Is Friday AI cheaper than GhostAI?+

Both have freemium models with different premium features. Friday AI's pricing is competitive but may not be cheaper depending on your needed features. Compare current pricing as both tools adjust rates periodically.
